Therapeutic effect of proprioception training combined with pelvic floor electrical stimulation biofeedback on postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction.

OBJECTIVES: Pelvic floor tendons, fascia, and ligaments are rich in proprioceptors. Proprioceptive training can stimulate local proprioceptors to increase neuromuscular responses and promote the recovery of muscle and fascial ligament functions. This study aims to observe the therapeutic effect of proprioception training combined with pelvic floor electrical stimulation biofeedback on postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD), and to provide evidence for the treatment of postpartum PFD. METHODS: =58). Puerpera in the control group received pelvic floor electrical stimulation biofeedback treatment. Puerpera in the experimental group received proprioception training combined with pelvic floor electrical stimulation biofeedback treatment. After one course of treatment, the pelvic floor muscle strength, muscle endurance, repetitive contraction ability, rapid contraction ability, percentage of normal vaginal posterior wall elevation, percentage of normal lower abdominal muscle synergistic contraction, percentage of normal reflex contraction during coughing, incidence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and staging of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) were compared before and after treatment between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Proprioception training combined with pelvic floor electrical stimulation biofeedback could improve the rehabilitation effect of postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction and promote the recovery of pelvic floor function, which possesses important clinical application value.
