Implication

Randomized trial explores goal achievement in women with urinary incontinence, suggesting effectiveness of interventions.

Key Points

  • To describe treatment goals and goal achievement among women undergoing midurethral sling surgery for mixed urinary incontinence.
  • Participants in a multicenter randomized trial completed patient-reported outcome measures and a goal achievement questionnaire.
  • Goals were rated at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months using a 5-point scale, with self-identified goal themes analyzed.
  • Factors associated with goal achievement were examined among participants with and without behavioral and physical therapy.
  • 94.5% of participants achieved at least one goal by 12 months.
  • The MUS with or without behavioral therapy group had higher odds of achieving urgency-related goals by 6 months (adjusted odds ratio 2.90, 95% CI 1.59–5.30, P<0.001).
  • Significant improvement in patient-reported outcomes was associated with goal achievement.
