We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of locally applied injectable platelet-rich fibrin in women with stress urinary incontinence. We searched whether there was a decrease in the severity of urinary incontinence after the injection of platelet-rich fibrin.
The participants will answer questionnaires about urinary incontinence before and after the injectable platelet-rich fibrin treatment.
Female patients with pure stress urinary incontinence who gave written informed consent after being informed about the study were included in the study. Two tubes of venous blood samples taken from the patients were centrifuged and injectable platelet-rich fibrin was prepared. The obtained autologous material was injected into the patient within one minute after preparation, without applying a local anesthetic. The injection was given to the anterior wall of the vagina, approximately 1.5 cm below the urethral meatus, coinciding with the mid-urethral region, and the dose was applied to three adjacent points. The procedure was repeated three times at one-month intervals. Before and after the procedure, ICIQ-SF, UDI-6, and IIQ-7 questionnaires were filled and the severity of urinary incontinence was recorded.

| Changes in urinary incontinence severity before and 6 months after injectable platelet-rich fibrin application were evaluated with International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-SF). | ICIQ-SF evaluates the severity of urinary incontinence symptoms and their impact on health-related quality of life. It is scored on a scale from 0-21. A higher score indicates greater impairment from incontinence. Stress urinary incontinence grade according to ICIQ-SF: slight (1-5), moderate (6-12), severe (13-18) and very severe (19-21). | Change in urinary incontinence severity before and 6 months after treatment |

| Changes in quality of life in patients with urinary incontinence before and 6 months after injectable platelet-rich fibrin application were evaluated with Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6) and Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7). | UDI-6 is a short version of a condition-specifc quality of life instrument. Higher scores in UDI-6 indicate higher disability. Total score is from 0 to 100. IIQ-7 is a urinary incontinence-specific psychometric questionnaire. This questionnaire assesses the psychosocial impact of UI in women. Higher scores in UDI-6 indicate higher disability. Total score ranges from 0 to 100. |
