Urinary incontinence in addition to be multifactorial with great therapeutic complexity is a problem of public health order and it deserves more attention because it causes a huge negative impact on the quality of life. There are several treatment options for urinary incontinence, as the exercises of the pelvic floor muscles, drug treatment, transurethral injection, and the artificial urinary sphincter. The International Continence Society recommended as initial therapy exercises of the pelvic floor muscles supervised, appropriate lifestyle guidance, regular urinary regimes, behavioral therapies and medication. A Systematic Review of this dissertation showed the need for more studies with better methodological quality to highlight the use of electrical stimulation as an effective intervention in the treatment of urinary incontinence; The Cross Retrospective Study, after analysis of 128 medical records of Pelvic Physical Therapy Clinic of the Federal Hospital of Rio de Janeiro's servers showed significant results of pelvic physiotherapy to reduce urinary incontinence and the impact of urinary incontinence on daily life of these patients. Finally, the experiment Controlled randomized, double-blind, showed significant results of the use of electrical stimulation associated with the exercise of the pelvic floor muscles as a conservative treatment option capable of enhancing the urinary continence after radical prostatectomy.
