Summary
This study followed 598 women who received the Altis Single Incision Sling, a minimally invasive mesh device, to treat stress urinary incontinence. Researchers tracked how well the sling worked and monitored safety over 12 and 36 months after implantation. The goal was to see if the device improves symptoms and has an acceptable safety profile in everyday medical practice.
