Understanding Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Your urinary tract includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Your kidneys make urine which flows through the ureters to your bladder. Your bladder expands to store urine until you're ready to urinate. Muscles called sphincters contract to hold urine in your bladder. When you urinate, the sphincters relax. This allows urine to pass out of your body through your urethra. Strong pelvic floor muscles support your bladder and other organs so they can work properly. Stress urinary incontinence means urine leaks by accident when movement puts sudden pressure on your bladder. It can happen when you cough, laugh, sneeze, or exercise. Urine can leak if your sphincters or pelvic floor muscles have become weak. Things that can weaken these muscles include childbirth, obesity, aging, pelvic surgery, and some types of medicine. To find out more about stress urinary incontinence, talk to your healthcare provider.

What attorneys say about MLA and The Doe Report:
"We got a defense verdict yesterday! Your exhibit was extremely helpful in showing the jury how unlikely it is to damage all four of the nerve branches which control the sense of taste."

"I wanted to take some time out to let you know what a wonderful job you did with the 'collapsed lung/fractured rib' illustrations. They were both detailed and accurate. My medical expert was comfortable working with them and he spent at least an hour explaining to the jury the anatomy of the lungs, the ribs and the injuries depicted in the illustrations. Needless to say, the jury was riveted to the doctor during his testimony.

The jury returned a verdict for $800,000.00 and I'm sure we would not have done so well if not for the visualizations we were able to put forth with your assistance. Lastly, my special thanks to Alice [Senior Medical Illustrator] who stayed late on Friday night and patiently dealt with my last minute revisions."

"Thank you very much for the great work on the medical exhibits. Our trial resulted in a $16 million verdict for a 9 year old boy with catastrophic injuries, and the medical illustrations definitely played key role in the trial."

"The Doe Report's Do-It-Yourself Exhibits program enables easy customization of complex medical exhibits at a reasonable expense and in a timely manner. Practically speaking, custom medical exhibits are no longer an unthinkable luxury, but a routine necessity."
