Appendix 1. Cochrane Incontinence Group Specialised Register search terms

The Incontinence Group Specialised Register was searched using the Group's own keyword system. The search terms used were:

(design.rct* or design.cct*)
AND
({INTVENT.MECH.DEVICE.ANAL.TAMPON} OR {INTVENT.MECH.device.pessaries.} OR {INTVENT.MECH.DEVICE.PLUG.} OR {INTVENT.MECH.DEVICE.PLUG.anal.} OR {INTVENT.MECH.DEVICE.VAGINAL.*} OR {INTVENT.MECH.DEVICES.} OR {INTVENT.MECH.devices.pessaries.} OR {INTVENT.MECH.})

(All searches were of the keyword field of Reference Manager 2012).

Date of the most recent search of the register for this review: 26 May 2015.

Appendix 2. Search methods for the first published version of this review

For the first version of this review (Deutekom 2005) the authors performed the following additional searches. All searches were carried out on 26 November 2004. The following electronic bibliographic databases were searched: MEDLINE (January 1966 to November 2004); CINAHL (January 1982 to November Week 3 2004); EMBASE (January 1996 to 2004 Week 47); INVERT (Dutch nursing database ‐ Index van de Nederlandstalige Verpleegkundige Tijdschriftliteratuur) (January 1993 to November 2004); and Web of Science (January 1988 to November 2004).
The following search terms were used:
1.tampon*
2.plug*
3.incontinen*
4.stool*
5.faec*
6.fecal incontinence/ [mesh]
7.flatus [mesh] OR anal [mesh]
8.anus OR anal
9.(1 or 2) AND (3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8)
Key: * = truncation symbol.
Additionally all reference lists of identified trials were searched.

We contacted two manufacturers that marketed plugs to ask for details of unpublished or ongoing trials. We did not impose any language or other limitations on the searches.
