Summary

Mayo Clinic researchers are testing whether an 8-week home program that uses a Garmin watch to change running cadence can reduce stress urinary incontinence in women who have given birth. The trial enrolls 66 parous runners who leak urine while running and have a preferred cadence of 170 steps per minute or less. Half will try to increase their cadence by 10 percent using watch alarms, while the other half maintain their usual cadence. Researchers will measure changes in cadence and urinary symptoms through questionnaires.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
an 8-week home running cadence retraining program guided by a Garmin watch alarm
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a low-cost, at-home way for runners with stress urinary incontinence to manage symptoms without surgery or clinic visits.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early trial of 66 women, so results may not apply broadly. Changing running cadence may not be enough to control leakage, and some participants may find the alarm distracting or hard to follow.

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 66 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Healthy * Nonpregnant * Female volunteers * Self-reported urinary incontinence during running with history of at least one prior delivery after 32 weeks gestation and who run 6 miles/week with a preferred cadence of less than or equal to 170 steps per minute determined via personal report from current Garmin watch data. * Participants must own their own or have access to a Garmin watch. * Participants must read, speak, and understand English sufficiently to provide informed consent and complete study procedures and questionnaires. Exclusion Criteria: * Unwillingness to complete all components of the study * Urge only urinary incontinence * \<3 months postpartum or current pregnancy * History of prolapse repair or incontinence surgery * Participants will also be excluded if they do not own or utilize a Garmin watch that provides cadence assessment and alarm.
