简要总结
Postpartum is a transitional period in which physical, social and emotional changes take place in the women. Especially the difficulty of psychological and physiological changes can be associated with deterioration in the women's health. Exercise support programs given to postpartum women have been shown to contribute to physical, mental and social well-being. Statistically significant improvements were found in depression and anxiety symptoms, energy and fatigue parameters, and general health regarding the effects of exercise on mental health in pregnant and postpartum women. The recommendation of the American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) is that women start physical activity as soon as they are medically or obstetrically safe. It is stated that they can be included in the exercise programs as soon as possible if it is a normal delivery, and after the 6th week, except for certain exercises if it is a cesarean section. Literature mentioned that exercise studies with postpartum women are insufficient. These mostly focused on the postpartum period and women who had a cesarean section were excluded. In their studies comparing the clinical and virtual environment; Although there is no statistical difference, there are studies showing that it is superior. To the best knowledge, there were no studies on postpartum telerehabilitation. Literature with a multidimensional approach in line with the recommendations of the guidelines were also limited.
详细描述
This study is a randomized controlled trial aiming to examine the improvement in psychosocial status and physical activity in postpartum women after 8 weeks of multimodal exercise-based telerehabilitation. Two groups will be formed, namely the intervention group and the training group.
Multimodal exercise-based telerehabilitation will be applied to the intervention group by an experienced physiotherapist in 45-minute sessions, 2 days a week, for 8 weeks; Postpartum and exercise related training will be given and they will be asked to walk gradually increasing aerobic exercises. All interventions are common except for the control group telerehabilitation. Women will be evaluated before and after the study. 'Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS)', 'Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS)', 'Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI), 'World Health Organization Lifestyle' for depression, fatigue, sleep, quality of life, physical activity and mental health in evaluations. World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (WHOQOL-BREF)', 'Kaiser Physical Activity Questionnaire (KFAA)', 'Short Symptom Inventory' will be used.

结局指标
主要结局
Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale
时间窗: 2 months
The Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale, developed by Cox and Holden, is used to determine the risk of depression in the postpartum period and to measure the change in level and severity. The scale is a self-assessment scale consisting of 10 questions in 4-point Likert type. The scores obtained from the scale vary between 0-30. The cut-off point is 13 and those who score 13 and above are considered to have depression risk/suspicion.
Kaiser Physical Activity Questionnaire
时间窗: 2 months
It was adapted from the Baecke Physical Activity Questionnaire to measure physical activity in women. In the scale, both how often the activities are done and how much time is spent on that activity are questioned. The survey consists of 38 questions in total. The questions in the survey are grouped under four main headings: "housework/care", "occupational", "active life", "sports and exercise". There are 11, 8, 4 and 15 questions in these categories, respectively. The questions are scored from 1 to 5. The scores of each category are averaged. It is then multiplied by the frequency, duration and MET value and summed up on all activities. The MET values of 3.5, 5 and 7, respectively, were used to represent the average MET values of activity in each intensity category. Categorical, total activity and weighted total activity scores are calculated.
Short Symptom Inventory
时间窗: 2 months
It is a 53-item multidimensional symptom screening scale developed by Derogatis (1992). It consists of 9 subscales and 3 global indexes. These; It includes somatization, obsessive-compulsive symptom, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, paranoid thought, and psychoticism dimensions. The scoring of the items is in the liker type between 0 and 4. The total score range varies between "0-212". It is evaluated that the higher the score, the higher the frequency of mental symptoms. Subscale scores are obtained by dividing the sum of the scores given to the items forming each subscale by the number of items.
