Investigating the effect of adding hypopressive exercise to specific pelvic floor function in semiprofessional female athletes

Investigating the effect of adding low pressure exercises to specific pelvic floor exercises on pelvic floor performance in semi-professional female athletes

The clinical trial has two parallel groups and one blind strain. Simple randomization was done based on randomized blocks on 60 patients.

People go to the rehabilitation clinic under the supervision of a physiotherapist to evaluate and receive the exercise brochure and training and perform the desired exercises, and then after receiving and training the exercises, they perform the exercises for 8 weeks. The evaluator in the blind study and the participant and The interventionist is not blind.

Women aged 18 to 60 years who have persistent symptoms of stress urinary incontinence during the past six months and one year after giving birth and who exercise at least three days a week for more than one year. These people should not be on hormone therapy. and six months They should not have been pregnant before pregnancy, and they should not have undergone physical therapy and not performed gynecological and urological surgery in the previous year. and do not have neurological disease, and do not have the inability to properly contract the pelvic floor muscles and maintain the probe, and do not have irregularity in sports performance, and are able to cooperate in the subsequent evaluations and complete the questionnaire, and do not have prohibitions to do exercises.

One group performs specific pelvic floor exercises that include pelvic floor contractions and the other group performs the same exercises along with low pressure exercises.

Displacement of the base of the bladder, strength and endurance of pelvic floor muscles, stress urinary incontinence, quality of life

The sampling method is accessible, i.e. among semi-professional female athletes with pelvic floor disorders who are referred to the neuromuscular rehabilitation clinic of Semnan Rehabilitation Faculty to receive pelvic floor physiotherapy with the aim of managing the symptoms of pelvic floor disorders, those who consent to participate in the study and meet the entry criteria, they will be included in the study. Allocation to two groups is random and this allocation will be done using the randomized block method. For this purpose, two interventions A and B is considered in six blocks of ten as follows. When each patient enters, the physiotherapist will ask for the type of treatment from the relevant methodology. The methodologist, holding the prepared list below, chooses a number between one and six by throwing a dice, and in the selected block, selects the specified intervention (A or B) to The person is allocated and announced to the physiotherapist. In the next stages, if the selected block is filled, the dice throw is repeated, two other numbers are selected that the sequence of interventions has not yet been completed, and this work will continue until the end of all blocks and the completion of 60 cases.

The study is one-sided blind. The evaluator in this study does not know the type of exercises of each person and is blind, the participant and the interventionist are fully present during the exercises and are not blind.
