The purpose of this study was to compare results of electromyographic assessment of muscular recruitment between nulliparous control subjects without pelvic floor dysfunction and parous subjects with genuine stress urinary incontinence and with pelvic organ prolapse. Interference pattern analysis is an electromyographic technique that reproducibly measures muscular recruitment by detecting both "turns" in the electromyographic signal produced by positive and negative peaks of the motor unit potentials and motor unit potential amplitude. Fewer turns can indicate loss of motor units or failure of central activation of contraction, whereas greater amplitude can indicate reinnervation after nerve damage.
