Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in number of falls between the baseline visit and 1 year [12 months]

    number of falls reported in a falls diary

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in urinary incontinence score on the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF) between baseline visit and 1 year [12 months]

    Change in International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF). A minimum score is 0, a maximum score is 21 with a higher score indicating higher severity.
