简要总结
Objectives
1. To determine the effectiveness of kegel’s exercises on frequency, strength and QOL in stress urinary incontinence among postmenopausal women
2. To determine the effectiveness of kegel’s exercises combined with hip muscles strengthening on frequency, strength and QOL in treatment of stress urinary incontinence among postmenopausal women
- To compare the effectiveness of hip muscles strengthening on frequency, strength and QOL in treatment of stress urinary incontinence among postmenopausal women
Study design: Randomized Control Trial
Study setting: Tertiary Hospitals, Outreach Programs, PHC
Procedure: Female patients with stress urinary incontinence in the age of 45-70 years of age will be taken. Eligible participants will be included for the study. Before collection of the data, Informed written and verbal consent will be taken from all the participants. The subjects will be interviewed and the information gathered about their demographic data of patients including name, age, gender, occupation, any history of systemic diseases and medications will be documented. Demographic data will be collected and 2 evaluations carried out, 1 at the beginning of the treatment and the other after 16 sessions of physical therapy intervention. Also after 1month till 20th session, follow up will be taken.
Conventional Treatment Group:
Participants will be given Kegel’s only in Group A.
Intervention Group
Participants will be given Hip muscles strengthening along with Kegel’s in Group B. The same exercises as those described for the conventional treatment group (Kegels exercises) will be performed during the first 20 minutes. After that, the KHG group will perform exercises for strengthening hip adductor, gluteus medius and maximus muscles for approximately 20 minutes, completing 40 minutes of session. The exercises for the hip muscles will be completely isolated from the Kegels exercises and will follow a protocol based on recommendations by the American College of Sports Medicine, with adjustments made to suit the profile of the women in this study.
