Does pattern of activation of pelvic floor muscles in men differ with verbal instructions?
The pattern of urethral movement measured from transperineal US is influenced by the instructions used to teach activation of the pelvic floor muscles in men. Efficacy of PFM training may depend on the instructions used to train activation. Instructions that optimize activation of muscles with a potential to increase urethral pressure without increasing abdominal EMG/IAP are likely ideal. Neurourol.

As an out-of-clinic procedure, CCE is feasible and easily performed. A home-based procedure may be associated with better acceptability and potentially with increased adherence to Colorectal cancer screening.
