Is the Pelvic Floor Muscle Assessment Terminology rooted in your daily practice? The updated terminology, developed by Frawley et al. in 2021, was key to the standardisation of female and male pelvic floor muscle (PFM) assessment procedures since terminology has significantly expanded since the first standardisation document almost 20 years ago. The ICS Physiotherapy Committee is keen to understand the use of this new terminology across all #continence disciplines.
