RESUMO
Objective: comparing muscle strength scores between groups 1 and 2 with questionnaire and clinical anamnesis findings, and describing biofeedback values found. Methods: transversal clinical trial with 70 women with urinary incontinency, divided in 2 groups according to muscle strength, being 40 women in the first group and 30 in the second. All women with previous diagnosis of effort urinary incontinency, in the climacteric period. Patients with neurological problems and pregnant women were excluded. The participants were subjected to the bi-digital test (according to Ortiz, 1996) and biofeedback measures for phasic contraction fibers, as well as a life quality questionnaire KHQ (Kings Health Questionaire) and clinical anamnesis. Data found were described as frequencies, means and standard deviations, minimum and maximum median scores. Results: a higher frequency of women presenting lowered muscle strength was found, for 57.1% (40 women). The most frequent complaints of urinary loss occurred during coughing and sneezing for both groups examined, group 1 (92.5%) and group 2 (96.7%). In group 2, only 1 woman reported total urinary loss. All biofeedback measures were higher in group 1, relative to group 2. In the questionnaire (KHQ), higher domain-specific scores were found in patients with more muscle strength (group 1), resulting in lower quality of life. Conclusion: the assessment of muscle strength is crucial for any physiotherapeutic intervention, as most patients may be altered. More than this, the quality of life must be analyzed, because the same could not be releated with objective datas like: age, urinary time loosing and delivery numbers
