Abstract
ObjectiveTo quantitatively assess the effect of physical therapy manual technique on endometrial volume and histogram values in infertile participants. MethodsPilot, analytical, interventional study, with a control group, developed at the Juana Crespo Clinic on 34 infertile participants.The endometrial and subendometrial volume of the uterus, Vascularization Indices (VI%), Vascularization Flow Index (VFI%) and Flow Index (IF%) were measured by 3D Doppler Ultrasonography, after applying the manual mobilization technique in soft tissue of the iliac fossa. ResultsIn the experimental group, the comparison of the total endometrial volumes before (M=41.09) and after the application of the physiotherapy technique (M=47.29) presented statistically significant differences, z=-3.946 (p<0.001), r=-, 73, like the study of histograms, reaching significant differences in the flow index (IF%) between the pre (M=35.22) and post (M=37.62) records, z=-2.849 (p<0.005), r=- 52. The vascularization flow index (IFV%) and the vascularization index (IV%) did not have significant differences between the pre and post time. Histograms IV%, IF%, IFV% indicate p<0.005. ConclusionsThe physiotherapy technique increases the total endometrial volumes and the endometrial IF% after its application, although the IV% and IFV% variables do not vary.
