중년여성의 요실금 예방을 위한 심부근육 자극 운동의 효과

Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in deep muscles related to urinary incontinence in middle-aged women using gyrotonic exercise of deep muscles. The subjects of this study were 40 middle-aged women with symptoms of urinary incontinence with a score of 1 to 3 points for UDI-6, an objective evaluating tool for urinary symptoms, among premenopausal middle-aged women aged 40 to 65 years. The gyrotonic exercise group consisted of 20 people and the control group 20 people, and in the case of the exercise group, exercise was performed for 60 minutes per exercise at a frequency of exercise 3 times a week for 12 weeks. As a result of statistical analysis, significant interaction effects were found in both pelvic floor muscle thickness and pelvic floor muscle activity (p<.01), which was significantly increased post-mortem compared to before in the gyrotonic exercise group. After 12 weeks, the gyrotonic exercise group was significantly higher than the control group (p<.05). Significant interaction effects were also found in both the right transverse abdominal muscle and transverse abdominal muscle activity (p<.01) (p<.001), which in the gyrotonic exercise group was compared with before and after post-mortem. It was found to be significantly increased (p<.01), and after 12 weeks, the gyrotonic exercise group was significantly higher than that of the control group (p<.01) (p<.001). Significant interaction effects were also found in both the left transverse abdominis muscle and the left transverse abdominis muscle activity (p<.05), which was significantly decreased in the control group compared to before. (p<.05), after 12 weeks, the gyrotonic exercise group was significantly higher than the control group (p<.01). There was no interaction effect in the diaphragm.
