    This study classifies stress incontinence using a stress test to diagnose urethral incompetence. This helps limit surgical treatment to patients who truly need it, improving patient outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Gynecology
    • Pelvic Floor Disorders

    Background:

    • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common condition affecting many women.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a classification system for stress incontinence.
    • To evaluate the utility of the stress test in diagnosing SUI and identifying suitable surgical candidates.

    Main Methods:

    • A classification system for stress incontinence was developed.
    • The stress test was employed to assess sphinctero-urethral function.

    Main Results:

    • The stress test effectively diagnoses sphinctero-urethral incompetence.
    • It identifies cases of SUI that are objectively negligible, indicating a lower likelihood of surgical benefit.

    Conclusions:

    • The stress test aids in classifying SUI.
    • It allows for the selective application of surgical interventions, reserving them for patients with significant objective findings.
