AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing pelvic floor exercises do not result in meaningful treatment outcomes for a number of subjects with pelvic floor disorders, necessitating improved methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, and treating these conditions to optimize therapy and tailor treatment regimens.

Method used

A method involving an intravaginal device with sensors to collect positional data during pelvic floor exercises, processing this data to establish a performance metric, and adjusting therapy based on predetermined thresholds or survey questionnaire data to determine the likelihood of treatment success, allowing for personalized treatment protocols.

Benefits of technology

Enables personalized treatment by identifying nonresponsive subjects early in the therapy, optimizing treatment protocols, and reducing unnecessary invasive treatments, thereby improving treatment efficacy and reducing wasted time on ineffective therapies.
