Abstract
L'invention concerne des dispositifs, des techniques et des systèmes permettant de contracter, de manière répétitive et fiable, le fascia ou d'autre tissus de support, en particulier afin de traiter l'incontinence urinaire. Au lieu de compter sur l'aptitude d'un chirurgien à observer, diriger et commander la contraction sélective des tissus de support pelviens, on place statiquement une surface relativement grande d'un système de contraction de tissu contre le tissu cible. Une énergie orientée suffisante est transmise de la surface dans le tissu en contact avec celle-ci, afin de contracter ledit tissu et d'inhiber l'incontinence (ou produire les résultats thérapeutiques désirés).
