“…7 Similarly, the QOL improvement due to PFMT was extensively documented in the literature. 7,16,32,33 Our findings support the existing evidence of the effect of self-management programs in treating women with SUI. A 3-month study of self-management of SUI included 109 women who received a booklet about PFMT and 166 women who used an internet-based program showed a significant mean reduction in the symptom scores in both groups (2.6 vs 3.4 points, respectively).…”

Aim This study aims to determine the effectiveness of home‐based pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) on decreasing the severity of symptoms and improving the quality of life (QOL) among Omani women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods A randomized controlled single‐blind trial was conducted in three primary health care centers in Muscat. Eligible women who were diagnosed with SUI (from a concurrent phase‐I study which was a cross‐sectional study to determine the prevalence of urinary incontinence in Oman) were invited to take part. The consenting subjects were randomly allocated to either an intervention group (unsupervised PFMT) or a control group (lecture with no PFMT). Baseline and 12‐week assessment of both groups was carried out for the primary outcome using the validated Arabic version of the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ)‐short form and the secondary outcome by blinded measures of pelvic floor muscle (PFM) strength using the modified Oxford grading system (MOGS), endurance, and perineometer. Results A total of 73 subjects were included in the study. They were randomly divided into two groups. Both groups were similar at the baseline in terms of sociodemographic characteristics, ICIQ score, and PFM strength. At the 12‐weeks assessment, there was a significant difference in the ICIQ score (P < .001) between the intervention group and the control one. There was no statistical difference between the two groups in MOGS, endurance, or perineometer values. Conclusions The home‐based PFMT is an effective treatment in reducing the severity of symptoms and improving the QOL in women with SUI.

“…Pereira et al [39] demonstrated that both individual and group PFM training significantly altered patient attitude toward UI and resulted in less strict control in this area. Similar findings were also reported by Nascimento-Correia et al [37]. …”

“…Additionally, Fitz et al demonstrated that a three-month training (three sessions a week) resulted in a significant improvement of QoL in this domain. A significant change in this domain was also observed by Nascimento-Correia et al [37] after 12 group exercise sessions (1 h per week). After completing the training, participants of this study reported lesser changes in the excess of depletion of energy.…”

“…Additionally, Rett et al [36] documented beneficial effects of isolated PFM training on QoL, observed as early as after six weeks of treatment. Beneficial effects of PFM exercises (performed lying on back and sitting on a chair for 1 h a day over a 12-week period) were also reported by Nascimento-Correia [37] in a group of older women with SUI (mean age 60.87 ± 9.05 years).…”

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) influences quality of life in female patients. In this study, we used ICIQ LUTS QoL (The International Consultation Incontinence Questionnaire Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms quality of life) to determine the quality of life (QoL) in various domains in patients with stage 1 SUI. The study included 140 perimenopausal women subjected to urodynamic tests at the Department of Gynaecology, Endocrinology and Gynaecologic Oncology, Pomeranian Medical University, Police (Poland) in 2013–2015. The study subjects were divided into two groups, A and B. Each patient completed two questionnaires, an original survey developed by the authors and the validated ICIQ LUTS QoL. Two exercise programs, each lasting for 3 months and consisting of 4 weekly sessions, were recommended to the study subjects. The program for Group A included exercises for pelvic floor muscles (PFM) with simultaneous tension of the transverse abdominal muscle (TrA), and the program for Group B, PFM exercises without TrA tension. After completing the exercise programs, patients with stage 1 SUI, both from Group A and from Group B, showed a significant improvement in most QoL domains measured with ICIQ LUTS QoL. However, more beneficial effects of the training were observed in the group subjected to PFM exercises with TrA tension.

“…The study of Nascimento-Correia et al [18] involved 30 patients who performed group PFM exercises in a lying-back position and in a sitting position for one hour once a week over a 12-week period. The mean number of deliveries in the study group was 1.47 ± 1.51, and in the control—not exercising—group: 2.13 ± 1.46.…”

Introduction Urinary incontinence (UI) is a health problem affecting the quality of women's lives (QOL) at various life stages. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) can be caused by previous vaginal deliveries and is especially likely to occur in the perimenopausal period. The most commonly recommended first-choice treatment methods involve exercises for the pelvic floor muscles (PFM). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of isolated PFM exercises and combined training of the PFM and the m.transversus abdominis (TrA) muscle on the QoL of patients with SUI with regard to the number of vaginal deliveries. Material and Methods 137 women with SUI were qualified for analysis (mean age 53,1 ± 5,5). To assess the effectiveness of PFM training QOL questionnaire was used (ICIQ-LUTS qol). PFM training for groups A (PFM+TrA) and B (PFM) was intended for 12 weeks. Statistica v. 12.0 PL, StatSoft, USA, was used for statistical calculations. Results The analysis demonstrated that conservative treatment based on the A training program (PFM + TrA) yielded statistically significantly better results than the B program (PFM), with the improvement observed in such QoL domains as the performance of household duties, physical activity and travelling, social limitations, emotions, sleep problems and fatigue, the frequency of changing panty liners, fluid intake control, and embarrassment. Conclusion Both the combined training of the PFM and the synergistic (TrA) muscle and the isolated PFM exercises improve the QoL of women with SUI. Nonetheless, the combined PFM and TrA muscle physiotherapy is more effective. The exercises for the PFM and the synergistic muscle give better results in women who have given birth fewer than three times than isolated PFM exercises.
