简要总结
This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of kinesiotaping on activation of abdominopelvic cavity for management of stress urinary incontinence females' patients.
详细描述
Stress urinary incontinence, the involuntary leakage of urine during exercise or certain movements, is a common pelvic floor disorder that can negatively impact quality of life. Urinary incontinence is associated with reduced physical, social, and mental well-being. While alternative exercise regimens have been proposed, It was concluded there is insufficient evidence they reduce leakage in women with stress urinary incontinence.
Kinesio taping is a rehabilitative technique that provides support and stability to muscles using elastic tape. Kinesio tape has no drugs/chemicals and allows normal skin function.
Limited studies have shown taping specific abdominal areas can stimulate skin-organ reflexes and improve pelvic organ function through interactions between the pelvis, pelvic floor muscles, and synergists. Therefore, could suggested that KT application on abdominopelvic cavity might be emerged as a conservative treatment option for urinary incontinence There were couple of previous research investigated the KT efficacy on treating bladder over activity with promising results of improvements. Till now, there is no previous study illustrating the effect of kinesio taping on abdominopelvic cavity in stress urinary incontinence females. So, this study will be the first one in this issue. Therefore, it will have valuable benefits in physical therapy field and scientific research.

结局指标
主要结局
King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ)
时间窗: 4 weeks
The KHQ is a validated instrument for measuring the quality of life of women with urinary incontinence. This questionnaire consists of two parts and 32 items. The first part (21 items) contains two single-item questions that address General Health Perception and Incontinence Impact and the following seven multi-item domains: Role, Physical, and Social Limitations, Limitations in Personal Relationship, Emotional Problems, Sleep and Energy Disturbances associated with SUI, and Severity Measures for UI. The second part has an 11-item Symptom Severity Scale (SSS) that assesses the presence and severity of urinary symptoms. While the entire SSS is scored from 0 (best) to 30 (worst), the minimum possible score is 0 (best health) and the maximum possible score is 100 (worst health) for all other KHQ domains.
Pelvic floor impact questionnaire- short form 7 (PFIQ-7)
时间窗: 4 weeks
It will be used to evaluate the efficacy of a particular therapy, and to compare bladder, bowel or vaginal symptoms severity for all females in both groups (A\&B) before and after treatment. All of the items use the following response scale: 0, Not at all; 1, somewhat; 2, moderately; 3, quite a bit PFIQ-7 Score, Obtain the mean value for all of the answered items within the corresponding scale (possible value 0- 3) and then multiply by (100/3) to obtain the scale score (range 0-100). The final score is the sum of the scores from the 3 scales together to obtain the summary score (range 0-300).
次要结局
