简要总结
The project seeks to investigate effectiveness of PFMT during pregnancy.
详细描述
First-time pregnant women will be recruited through visitations received from family doctors in all obstetrics departments of the Southern Denmark Region. Women will be randomised into two groups: ( Pelvic Floor Muscle Training) PFMT and a control group (standard care). The motivation-informed intervention will tackle both exercise engagement and exercise adherence. The women will receive an easily accessible, home-based PFMT program electronically in which they will be motivated to start and engage during pregnancy with continuity after birth. The data regarding pelvic floor disorders will be obtained at baseline, follow-ups once every trimester of pregnancy, as well as six weeks, three months, and six months postpartum with further follow-up after the study. The data regarding obstetric outcomes will be collected from electronic patient records. For evaluation of implementation process, data regarding motivation and training acceptability will be obtained via questionnaire at the baseline and at follow-up together with telephonically interviews during pregnancy and postpartum.

研究组 & 干预措施
Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (PFMT)
A Danish professional pelvic floor physiotherapist together with a midwife and an urogynecologist have created a free of charge training program, which is easily accessible via a danish website "www.kvindekrop.dk" or via the app "Pelvic FloorTrainer". The women will receive an easily accessible, home-based PFMT program electronically in which they will be motivated to start and engage during pregnancy with continuity after birth.
干预措施: PFMT (Behavioral)
Standard care
The control group will receive routine care - recommendation to do the training without any further instructions.
干预措施: Standard care (Behavioral)
