1 IN 3 WOMEN EXPERIENCES BLADDER LEAKS
Bladder Leaks Increase Risk of Falls in Older Women
Our MoVEonUP study seeks to help women decrease bladder leaks and prevent falls!
What is MoVEonUp?
The Mobility and Voiding Exercises in Older Women with Urinary Incontinence (MoVEonUp) is a research study funded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) that is done in your home, no travel required.
MoVEonUp is testing if a tailored exercise and bladder program decreases the risk of falling and improves bladder leaks (urinary incontinence). Women who are 70 years or older with incontinence will be randomized (like “flipping a coin”) to one of two groups: a home-based exercise program or an education group. All women will receive a Fitbit for your wrist. A stipend is provided for all study visits.
