Having trouble with bladder control? There might be an app for that, researchers say.
Female veterans suffering from urinary incontinence received effective relief using a smartphone app called MyHealtheBladder, researchers reported Sept. 16 in JAMA Network Open.
The app delivered daily sessions over eight weeks, teaching the women about pelvic floor exercises, bladder control strategies, fluid management and self-monitoring, researchers said.
Veterans also got effective help from a telehealth visit with trained urinary incontinence experts, researchers said.
