Comparison of pelvic floor muscle strength evaluations in nulliparous and primiparous women: a prospective study
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the pelvic floor muscle strength of nulliparous and primiparous women. METHODS A total of 100 women were prospectively distributed into two groups: Group 1 (G1) (n = 50) included healthy nulliparous women, and Group 2 (G2) (n = 50) included healthy primiparous women. Pelvic floor muscle strength was subjectively evaluated using transvaginal digital palpat...
متن کاملInvestigation of transabdominal real-time ultrasound to visualise the muscles of the pelvic floor.
Clinical measurement of pelvic floor muscle activity commonly involves techniques that are both physically and psychologically invasive. This study investigated transabdominal application of ultrasound to measure pelvic floor muscle action. The specific aims were to establish the face validity of ultrasound measures of displacement of the posterior bladder wall as a reflection of pelvic floor m...
متن کاملPerineal muscle strength during pregnancy and postpartum: the correlation between perineometry and digital vaginal palpation.
Digital vaginal palpation performed during clinical practice can help diagnose urinary, intestinal and sexual disorders, while perineometry is more useful for performing perineal exercises with biofeedback. This study verifies whether there is a correlation between values of Pelvic Floor Muscle Strength (PFMS) obtained through perineometry performed with an electronic perineometer and through d...
متن کاملEffects of pelvic floor muscle training during pregnancy.
OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training in 46 nulliparous pregnant women. METHODS The women were divided into 2 groups: an exercise group and a control group. Functional evaluation of the pelvic floor muscle was performed by digital vaginal palpation using the strength scale described by Ortiz and by a perineometer (with and with...
متن کاملClinical evaluation of pelvic floor muscle function in continent and incontinent women.
AIMS The aim of the study was to investigate the reliability of a scoring system for the investigation of voluntary and reflex co-contractions of abdominal and pelvic floor muscles in lying, sitting, and standing positions in continent and incontinent women. METHODS A visual inspection and digital (strength, tone, speed, and endurance) palpation scale was developed to measure the coordination...
