简要总结
The sample comprised 31 female undergraduate students attending a private University in João Pessoa, northeastern Brazil. The inclusion criteria were: age between 19 and 35 years, heterosexual, active sex life, living in a stable relationship for at least 6 months no pregnancy or parturition in the last 6 months, clinically healthy and agreeing with the terms for participating in the study. All participants gave their informed consent to take part in the study.
详细描述
PURPOSE: To compare the consistency of 3 instruments for sexual function evaluation in healthy young women before and after a pelvic floor muscle training. Methods: Thirty-one healthy young women were enrolled in an 8-week training program, consisting of bipedal exercises performed at home. The PERFECT and Peritron methods were used to estimate the efficacy of the intervention on pelvic muscles. Three questionnaires (FSFI, SQ-F and GRISS) were applied to assess sexual function. Both procedures were performed on three occasions: before, 4 and 8 weeks after the start of the training program. ANOVA for repeat measures and Tukey's post hoc were applied to analyze PERFECT and Peritron results, as well as individual domains and total scores of the questionnaires. The accuracy measured by the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for individual domains of each questionnaire and cross-validated pairwise comparison of the three instruments were also analyzed.

结局指标
主要结局
Assessment of female sexual response by Female Sexual Function Inventory (FSFI)
时间窗: 8 weeks
This questionnaire contains 19 itens assessing sexual function over the past four weeks, associated with six domains and possible types of disorders: desire, arousal, lubrification, orgasm, satisfaction of sexual life, and pain during or after the intercourse.
Assessment of female sexual response by Golombok-Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS) for female.
时间窗: 8 weeks
The GRISS is a 28-item questionnaire that provides a total GRISS score as well as two separate scales for males and females. For females, the scale has 8 items, including anorgasmia, vaginismus, non-communication, infrequency, female avoidance, female non-sensuality, female dissatisfaction and anorgasmia. Scoring was from 0 to 10 with values higher than 5 indicating sexual dysfunction.
Assessment of female sexual response by Sexual quotient for women (QS-F)
时间窗: 8 weeks
This instrument is composed of 10 questions that assess sexual function, adressing desire and interest in sex, foreplay, sexual arousal and harmony with the partner, comfort in sexual intercourse, and orgasm and sexual satisfaction. The overall scores range from 0 to 100, where high scores mean excellent sexual performance.
次要结局
- Pelvic floor muscles performance quantified by PERFECT method(8 weeks)
- Pelvic floor muscles performance quantified by PERITRON method(8 weeks)
