Abstract
Dynamic Lumbopelvic Stabilization Exercise Protocol for the Treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women
Highlights
The pelvic floor muscles act in synergism with the muscles of the lumbopelvic region to stabilize the lumbar spine and allow urinary continence [1,2]
The stabilization exercise protocol proposed was effective for continence outcomes and quality of life and there was a favorable impact on the perception of improvement
After signing the Informed Consent, due to the difficulty in obtaining women that met the established inclusion criteria, ten women with a mean age of 49±8.9 years old were assessed by the provocation of cough test to dynamic lumbopelvic stabilization exercise protocol proposed for each stage of treatment were repeated until the correct biomechanical pattern was achieved
Summary
The pelvic floor muscles act in synergism with the muscles of the lumbopelvic region to stabilize the lumbar spine and allow urinary continence [1,2]. Studies proving the effectiveness of exercises for lumbopelvic stabilization treatment of patients with urinary incontinence are still incipient in the literature, the results are quite encouraging [3,6,7,8]. Knowing that stabilization exercises are able to change the default drive motor [1,2,3,9], we believe that they can bring more lasting clinical results for patients with urinary incontinence. For this reason, we plan in our service a randomized clinical trial.
