Randomized, Placebo Controlled Study of Electrical Stimulation With Pelvic Floor Muscle Training for Severe Urinary Incontinence After Radical Prostatectomy
TL;DR: Electrical stimulation resulted in earlier recovery of continence in patients with urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy and the amount of leakage was significantly larger in the active group at 1 month but there was no difference at 12 months.

Conservative management for postprostatectomy urinary incontinence
Coral A Anderson,Muhammad Imran Omar,Susan E Campbell,Kathleen F. Hunter,June D Cody,Cathryn Glazener +5 more
TL;DR: There was no evidence from eight trials that pelvic floor muscle training with or without biofeedback was better than control for men who had urinary incontinence up to 12 months after radical prostatectomy; the quality of the evidence was judged to be moderate.
Contemporary Management of Postprostatectomy Incontinence

TL;DR: No randomised controlled trials exist to compare currently used noninvasive and invasive treatments for postprostatectomy incontinence, so Pelvic floor muscle training is recommended for the initial treatment of stress urinaryincontinence (SUI).

TL;DR: After RRP an early supportive rehabilitation program like PFMT significantly reduces continence recovery time and is effective on a large population of patients that had undergone radical retropubic prostatectomy.
