Summary
This study follows about 200 women who had surgery with the GYNECARE TVT EXACT sling to treat stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing or sneezing). Researchers check if the sling still works 5 to 10 years later by using a cough test and patient questionnaires. The goal is to see how well the device controls symptoms long-term.
