AbstractBackground and Purpose. Pelvic-floor muscle (PFM) exercises are effective in reducing stress urinary incontinence (SUI), but few studies have investigated the effect of specific exercise variables on treatment outcomes. This study explored the effect of exercise position on treatment outcomes in women with SUI. Subjects and Methods. Forty-four women were randomly assigned to exercise in the supine position only or in both supine and upright positions. Bladder diary, pad test, urodynamic test, quality-of-life (Incontinence Impact Questionnaire [IIQ]), and PFM strength outcomes were obtained at baseline and after treatment. Results. Exercise position did not affect outcomes. After data from both groups were collapsed, statistically significant improvements with treatment were observed in bladder diary, IIQ, PFM strength, and urodynamic test results. Discussion and Conclusion. Exercise position did not differentially affect treatment outcomes. However, women in this study achieved a mean 67.9% reduction in the frequency of SUI episodes and improvements in other study outcomes. [Borello-France DF, Zyczynski HM, Downey PA, et al.

Pelvic Floor Muscle Exercise

Gastrointestinal involvement in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is observed in up to 90% of patients. Resolution of some of these gastrointestinal complications is challenging without the support of physical therapy and rehabilitation. One of these complications, SSc-associated fecal incontinence, which can be devastating for those affected, is seen in up to 39%. Studies focusing on fecal incontinence and its treatment are scarce. The hypothesis presented herein suggests that pelvic floor muscle exercise, biofeedback therapy, and neuromodulation methods might be effective and safe treatment strategies for patients affected by this debilitating complication.

Quasi Experiment Study

Sexuality is one of the most important components of a person's quality of life. Postpartum is the period when women experienced problems in their sexual lives. This study aimed to prove the effects of pelvic floor muscle (PFM) exercise on sexual self-efficacy among primiparous women. This research was a quasi-experiment study with one group time series design, with the number of respondents 32 people. The results showed that the intervention of pelvic floor muscle exercise which performed for six weeks proved to increase the sexual self-efficacy of primiparous mother significantly (p = 0,001; CI 95% 10,53 – 14,18). PFM exercise is the best way to increase pelvic floor muscle strength that positively affects the enhancement of sexual self-efficacy of primiparous women. It is recommended that PFM exercise become a nursing intervention that should be explained and taught by nurses as a form of postpartum care education.Keywords: PFM exercise, sexual self-efficacy.
