Summary

This trial will help determine if unrestricted activity following surgery for stress urinary incontinence has an impact on continence outcomes long term.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for non-pregnant women with stress urinary incontinence who are planning to have mid-urethral sling surgery. They must be able to follow up for 2 years, complete study tasks, and provide consent. Women under 18, currently pregnant or less than a year post-partum, or unable to understand English can't join.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effects of not restricting activities after mid-urethral sling surgery against standard activity restrictions. It aims to see how this affects continence outcomes over time and when patients naturally return to their usual activities.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the interventions involve different levels of physical activity rather than medication, side effects may include discomfort or complications related to increased activity post-surgery versus potential benefits from a quicker return to normal activities.
