Continence scores, quality of life scores, and anal manometry before and after injection

Continence score SF-36 physical function SF-36 social function Maximum resting pressure (cm H82O) Maximum squeeze pressure (cm H2O)

Median 13.5 8* 26 78.5* 10 100* 46 74.5* 98 141.5

Continence score ranges from 0=complete continence to 24=worst incontinence.14

The quality of life score ranges from 0=minimum to 100=maximum.15

Maximum resting pressure was measured using a stationary pull through technique.

Maximum squeeze pressure was measured as the increment above resting pressure.
