We describe the impact of genital trauma on pelvic floor function in a low-risk cohort of women after vaginal birth. Questionnaires
(Present Pain Intensity Scale, Incontinence Impact Questionnaire, Fecal Incontinence Score, and Intimate Relationship Scale)
were completed up to 12 weeks postpartum. Severity of trauma was recorded at delivery. Overall follow-up was 444/565 (79%).
Major trauma (trauma that involved perineal muscles or required suturing) occurred in 20%; 20% delivered intact. At 12 weeks,
10% complained of perineal pain; 24% reported anal (AI) and 27% urinary incontinence (UI). Women with trauma were no more
likely than those intact to complain of UI or AI, sexual inactivity, or perineal pain postpartum (all P = NS). Women with major trauma had weaker pelvic floor exercise strength than those who delivered intact or with minor trauma
(odds ration 3.06, 95% confidence interval 1.41–6.63). Pelvic floor complaints postpartum were common but not associated with
severity of genital trauma in a cohort of low-risk women. 相似文献

The sexual function of women with and without urinary incontinence and/or pelvic organ prolapse (UI/POP) was compared using
a condition-specific validated questionnaire, the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ).
Eighty-three women with UI/POP and 56 without agreed to participate. PISQ scores were significantly lower among women with
UI/POP than in those without (P = 0.003). No differences in the stages of sexual excitement were noted between groups. The frequency of intercourse was less
with UI/POP than without (P = 0.04). Women with UI/POP restricted sexual activity for fear of losing urine more frequently than did those without (P= 0.005). No differences were reported in patients’ or partners’ sexual satisfaction. This study found that women with UI/POP
have poorer sexual functioning than those without, as measured by the PISQ, and report less frequent sexual activity. In
addition, women with UI/POP are more likely to restrict sexual activity for fear of incontinence, although they report similar
levels of satisfaction with their sexual relationships as do women without UI/POP. 相似文献

The purpose of the study was to provide estimates of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and practice of pelvic floor muscle
training (PFMT) postpartum as well as counseling during and after pregnancy among Hispanic women. Two hundred Hispanic women
were surveyed 6 months postpartum. Twenty-three percent had SUI with onset primarily during pregnancy (70%). Only 20% had
received information regarding SUI and PFMT during pregnancy or postpartum. Most women not counseled wished they were (81%).
Less counseling occurred among Hispanic women with lower levels of education (odds ratio [OR] = .39; 95% confidence interval
[CI] = 0.19–0.82; p = 0.02) and those whose primary language was Spanish (OR = .36; 95% CI = 0.15–0.87; p = 0.02), while higher rates occurred among women with a forceps delivery (OR = 2.94; 95% CI = 1.06–7.78; p = 0.03). Fifty-seven percent of women counseled practiced the exercises. Primary reasons for noncompliance were belief that
PFMT would not help (47%), and not understanding the instructions (39%). SUI and PFMT counseling is low among Hispanic women.
Most women desire such information, and improvement in performance of PFMT among this group is possible.

Introduction and hypothesis Current assessment for pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) allows comparison between different communities.
Methods A total of 377 indigenous women living in Xingu Indian Park were evaluated. The pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q)
was the system used to quantification the staging of pelvic support. The pelvic floor muscle strength was assessed by a perineometer.
Logistic regression analysis was used to determine risk factors that were associated with prolapse.
Results Only 5.8% of women reported urinary incontinence. The overall distribution of POP-Q stage system was the following: 15.6%
stage 0, 19.4% stage I, 63.9% stage II and 0.8% stage III. Parity and age were the risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse
(p < 0.0001).
Conclusions Urinary incontinence was uncommon in Xingu indigenous women. Like non-indigenous communities, age and parity were the most
important risk factors to the genital prolapse. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of colpocleisis and concomitant mid-urethral sling on voiding function.
This is an IRB-approved, retrospective case series of women who underwent a colpocleisis with concomitant synthetic mid-urethral
sling for treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) between January 2005 and September 2007. Thirty-eight women with
pelvic organ prolapse and SUI symptoms were included. Thirty percent had a post-void residual (PVR) greater than 100 ml preoperatively.
PVRs were normal in all but two women after surgery. Median prolapse and urinary subscales of the pelvic floor distress inventory
improved significantly after surgery [75 (50–100) vs. 0 (0–38), p < 0.0001 and 44 (8–100) vs. 0 (0–50), p < .0001, respectively]. Colpocleisis with concomitant mid-urethral sling improves urinary symptoms without causing significant
urinary retention. This combination may be offered to elderly women with SUI who are undergoing colpocleisis regardless of
preoperative PVR. 相似文献

The effect of postpartum pelvic floor muscle exercise in the prevention and treatment of urinary incontinence 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of postpartum pelvic floor muscle exercise in the prevention and treatment
of urinary incontinence. A prospective comparison design of 99 matched pairs (n=198) of mothers, a training group and a control group, was used. Eight weeks postpartum the training group attended an 8-week
intensive pelvic floor muscle exercise course, training in groups led by a physical therapist for 45 minutes once a week.
In addition they were asked to exercise at home at least three times per week. The control group followed the ordinary written
postpartum instructions from the hospital. Pelvic floor muscle strength was measured pretreatment at the eighth, and post-treatment
at the 16th week after delivery, using a vaginal balloon catheter connected to a pressure transducer. Vaginal palpation and
observation of inward movement of the balloon catheter during contraction were used to test the ability to perform correct
the pelvic floor muscle contraction. Urinary leakage was registered by interview, specially designed instruments to measure
how women perceive SUI, and a standardized pad test. At baseline (8 weeks postpartum) there was no significant difference
in the number of women with urinary incontinence in the training group compared to the control group. At 16 weeks postpartum,
after the 8-week treatment period, there was a significant (P<0.01) difference in favor of the training group. In addition, a significantly greater improvement in pelvic floor muscle
strength between test 1 and test 2 was found in the training group compared to the control group. The results show that a
specially designed postpartum pelvic floor muscle exercise course is effective in increasing pelvic floor muscle strength
and reducing urinary incontinence in the immediate postpartum period.
EDITORIAL COMMENT: This paper is one of only a few looking at the efficacy of a rigorous pelvic floor muscle exercise training
regime to help women with incontinence in the postpartum period. Whether or not these results will translate long-term into
a lower incidence of urinary incontinence as these women age, is unknown, and may never be known. However, this paper points
out that there is a definite benefit from pelvic floor muscle exercise for the treatment of postpartum incontinence, and we
can use this information to more strongly counsel our patients in the use of these exercises. 相似文献

Introduction and hypothesis The levator ani muscle is generally thought to play a role in urinary continence, with incontinence assumed to be due to abnormal
muscle function or morphology. This study examined whether avulsion of the puborectalis muscle is associated with symptoms
or signs of bladder dysfunction.
Methods In a retrospective observational study, we reviewed the records of 425 women who had attended a urogynecological unit for
independent flowmetry, multichannel urodynamic testing, and 4D pelvic floor ultrasound.
Results Mean age was 55 years (range, 17–87 years). Of 420 women with complete datasets, 104 (25%) were diagnosed with a puborectalis
muscle avulsion. These women were less likely to suffer from stress urinary incontinence (SUI; P < 0.001) and urodynamic stress incontinence (USI; P = 0.065) and more likely to present with symptoms of prolapse (P < 0.001) and show signs of voiding dysfunction (P = 0.005). The negative association between avulsion and SUI persisted in multivariate models.
Conclusion Puborectalis muscle trauma is not associated with an increased risk of SUI or USI in a urogynecological population, even when
controlling for symptoms or signs of prolapse and previous surgery. 相似文献

Introduction and hypothesis The aim of this paper is to develop a motivation questionnaire regarding perseverance in pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT)
supervised by physiotherapists for stress urinary incontinence.
Methods Sixteen semi-structured interviews were conducted in women with stress urinary incontinence that revealed 15 common themes;
117 items were constructed and reviewed by continence advisors. Surviving items (n = 73) were administered to 210 women. Data were analysed for item properties, factor analysis was used to examine the questionnaire
structure and tests of convergence/divergence used to check for sensitivity.
Results The Incontinence Treatment Motivation Questionnaire (ITMQ) comprises 18-items in five scales, assessing attitudes towards
treatment (72.62% of explained variance; α = 0.87), reasons for not doing PFMT (55.73%; α = 0.74), living with incontinence (62.70% variance; α = 0.70), desire for treatment (65.37% variance; α = 0.74) and the effect of incontinence severity on PFMT (51.62% variance, α = 0.68). Scales were generally sensitive to known group differences.
Conclusions This study represents the first effort to develop a motivation scale for PFMT. This validated Motivation Questionnaire is
an instrument to test the impact of motivation upon cure, in PFMT.

The objective of this study was to compare the surgical outcome of abdominal sacrocolpopexy and Burch colposuspension with
sacrospinous fixation and transvaginal needle suspension in the management of vaginal vault prolapse and coexisting stress
incontinence. One hundred and seventeen women with vaginal vault prolapse and coexisting stress incontinence were surgically
managed over a 7-year period. The first 61 consecutive women who underwent sacrospinous fixation and transvaginal needle suspension
comprised the vaginal group, and the following 56 consecutive women who underwent abdominal sacrocolpopexy and Burch colposuspension
comprised the abdominal group. Office records were reviewed to assess the presence of recurrent prolapse and urinary incontinence
during postoperative follow-up. Objective follow-up was available for 101 women. Mean duration of follow-up was 24.0 ± 15
months for the vaginal group, and 23.1 ± 12.6 months for the abdominal group. The incidence of recurrent prolapse to or beyond
the hymen (33% vs. 19%, P = 0.0505) and lower urinary tract symptoms (26% vs. 13%, P = 0.0506) were significantly higher in the vaginal group than in the abdominal group. Our data suggest that the combined
abdominal approach has a lower incidence of recurrent prolapse and lower urinary tract symptoms than the combined vaginal
approach in managing vaginal vault prolapse and coexisting stress incontinence. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to determine the immediate effect of timing a pelvic muscle contraction with the moment of expected
leakage (the Knack maneuver) to preempt cough-related stress incontinence. Women performed a standing stress test using three
hard coughs without and then with the Knack maneuver. Volume of urine loss under both conditions was quantified with paper-towel
test. Two groups of women were tested: nonpregnant women (n = 64) and pregnant women (n = 29). In nonpregnant women, wetted area decreased from a median (range) of 43.2 (0.2–183.7) cm2 without the Knack maneuver to 6.9 (range of 0 to 183.7 cm2) with it (p < 0.0001); while in pregnant women it decreased from 14.8 (0–169.7) cm2 to 0 (0–96.5) cm2, respectively (p = 0.001). This study confirms the effect from the Knack maneuver as immediate and provides a partial explanation for early
response to widely applied pelvic muscle training regimens in women with stress incontinence. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to determine whether urodynamic testing improves the outcome of retropubic surgery in women aged
50 or younger. A retrospective study was undertaken of 212 women aged 50 or younger who underwent retropubic surgery at a
medical school-affiliated hospital between February 1991 and July 1997. Excluded were patients with prior retropubic urethropexy
and known low urethral closure pressures. The surgery was performed by one urogynecologist and two urologists. The minimal
evaluation by the urogynecologist was a focused incontinence questionnaire, pelvic neurologic examination, pelvic floor grading,
cough stress test, urinalysis, postvoid residual, cotton swab test and supine empty stress test. Full urodynamics consisted
of uroflowmetry, subtracted cystometry, urethral closure pressure, cough leak-point pressure and cystourethroscopy. Subjective
postoperative follow-up at 1–4 years was by annual questionnaire. The urogynecologist’s patients were in group I (95 women
with full urodynamic studies) and group II (36 women with minimal testing). The urologists’ patients were in group III (81
women with a very minimal work-up and cystourethroscopy). A review of seven variables revealed no difference between the groups.
In terms of cured, improved and failed, there was also no difference in outcome. There was a difference in postoperative voiding
problems (though not stress incontinence) in group III compared to group I (P = 0.005) and group II (P = 0.002). Our conclusion was that all women with stress incontinence should undergo a careful minimal evaluation. In women
aged 50 or younger urodynamic studies may be avoided unless there is significant stress incontinence, complex symptoms, a
positive supine empty stress test, marked prolapse, or a history of prior retropubic urethropexy. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether paratrooper training is associated with pelvic support defects or urinary
incontinence. Nulliparous women at The United States Military Academy were examined using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification
System and completed a questionnaire regarding incontinence and exercise prior to undergoing summer military training. The
exam and questionnaire were repeated following training. One hundred sixteen women completed the study (80.6%), 37 of whom
had attended paratrooper training. Women who attended paratrooper training were significantly more likely to have stage II
prolapse (RR = 2.72, 1.37 < RR < 5.40; p = 0.003). Additionally, women who attended paratrooper training were significantly more likely to have worsening in their
pelvic support regardless of initial prolapse stage (RR = 1.57, 1.12 < RR < 2.20; p = 0.01). Twenty-four women complained of urinary incontinence; however, this was not associated with paratrooper training.
The forces transmitted to the female pelvis during paratrooper training are significant and cause pelvic support defects.

A randomized controlled trial of pelvic floor muscle exercises to treat postnatal urinary incontinence 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
A randomized controlled trial was carried out to evaluate the extent to which a program of reinforced pelvic floor muscle exercises (PFME) reduces urinary incontinence 1 year after delivery. Two hundred and thirty women who were incontinent 3 months postpartum were randomized to either a control group doing standard postnatal pelvic floor muscle exercises (n=117) or to an intervention group (n=113) who saw a physiotherapist for instruction at approximately 3, 4, 6 and 9 months postpartum. Results collected 12 months after delivery included prevalence and frequency of incontinence and PFME, sexual satisfaction, perineometry measurements and pad tests. Twenty-six (22%) of the control group and 59 (52%) of the intervention group withdrew before the final assessment. The prevalence of incontinence was significantly less in the intervention group than in the control group (50% versus 76%,P=0.0003), and this group also did significantly more PFME. There were no significant differences between the groups as regards sexual satisfaction, perineometry measurements or pad test results. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to identify factors associated with new onset of postpartum fecal incontinence in primiparous
women. A population-based study was conducted that surveyed all women delivering between 2002 and 2003 in Oregon. Factors
associated with fecal incontinence were identified using logistic regression analysis. A total of 6,152 primiparous women
completed the survey 3–6 months postpartum with 2,482 reporting a new onset of fecal incontinence (FI) after childbirth. Vaginal
delivery was associated with a greater risk of FI compared to cesarean (odds ratio = 1.45; 95% confidence interval, 1.29 to
1.64). However, vaginal delivery without laceration or instrument assistance did not increase the risk of FI over cesarean.
Being overweight (body mass index ≥30 kg/m2), pushing for greater than 2 h, and constipation were independently associated with postpartum FI (p < 0.05) regardless of route of delivery. This study provides important data to inform counseling and management of primiparous
women.

Forty-seven women participated in a pilot study for a multi-centre randomized controlled trial of the effectiveness of pelvic
floor muscle training (PFMT) for women with prolapse. Women with symptomatic stage I or II prolapse [measured by Pelvic Organ
Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q)] were randomized to a 16-week physiotherapy intervention (PFMT and lifestyle advice; n = 23) or a control group receiving a lifestyle advice sheet (n = 24). Symptom severity and quality of life were measured via postal questionnaires. Blinded POP-Q was performed at baseline
and follow-up. Intervention women had significantly greater improvement than controls in prolapse symptoms (mean score decrease
3.5 versus 0.1, p = 0.021), were significantly more likely to have an improved prolapse stage (45% versus 0%, p = 0.038) and were significantly more likely to say their prolapse was better (63% versus 24%, p = 0.012). The data support the feasibility of a substantive trial of PFMT for prolapse. A multi-centre trial is underway. 相似文献

The aim of this present study was to measure the impact of coital urinary incontinence (UI) on sexually active women quality
of life (QoL). Epidemiological, observational, cross-sectional, and multicenter study including 633 sexually active women
seeking treatment for UI and/or overactive bladder in a gynecological clinic, aged between 24 and 83 years. All women filled
out the King’s Health Questionnaire—KHQ. With this questionnaire, we had a complete register of the different urinary symptoms,
included coital UI, and the extent of how they affect patient’s life and the measurement of impact on the patient’s QoL by
the KHQ score. Prevalence of coital incontinence in sexually active women was 36.2%, classifying this impact as low (59.8%),
moderate (32.3%), and high (7.9%). Women reporting coital incontinence had similar mean age and body mass index (BMI) to those
women without coital incontinence. Women with coital incontinence had higher scores (worse QoL) in all the dimensions and
in the KHQ global score (p < 0.05). Coital incontinence was the only variable showing an independent relation to KHQ global score (B = 10.1; 95% confidence interval = 1.7–18.6) in a multiple regression model adjusted to age, BMI, and the other urinary symptoms
under study. One third of the sexually active women with urinary symptoms had coital incontinence. Among sexually active women
with urinary symptoms, patients with coital urinary incontinence had a higher impact on their QoL than those without coital
incontinence. Coital incontinence is independently related to a KHQ high score, which suggest worse QoL. 相似文献

Introduction and hypothesis The aim of the study was to determine whether successful incontinence pessary fitting or pessary size can be predicted by
specific POPQ measurements in women without advanced pelvic organ prolapse.
Methods In a multicenter study, women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and POPQ stage ≤2 were randomized to three treatment
arms: (1) incontinence pessary, (2) behavioral therapy, or (3) both. This study evaluates incontinence pessary size, POPQ
measures, and successful fitting in the 266 women assigned to treatment arms 1 and 3.
Results Two hundred thirty-five women (92%) were successfully fitted with an incontinence ring (n = 122) or dish (n = 113). Hysterectomy, genital hiatus (GH), and GH/total vaginal length (TVL) ratios did not predict unsuccessful fitting
(p > 0.05). However, mean TVL was greater in women successfully fitted (9.6 vs. 8.8 cm, p < 0.01). Final pessary diameter was not predicted by TVL, point D, or point C (p > 0.05).
Conclusions The vast majority of women with SUI can be successfully fitted with an incontinence pessary, but specific POPQ measures were
not helpful in determining incontinence pessary size.

The Prevalence of Urinary and Fecal Incontinence in Canadian Secondary School Teenage Girls: Questionnaire Study and Review of the Literature 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of pelvic floor dysfunction and incontinence in the Canadian nulligravid
secondary school female teenage population. During the University of Toronto day in 1996, female visitors to the Obstetrics
and Gynecology Department booth were asked to complete anonymous pelvic floor and continence questionnaires, which were thoroughly
explained to them and completed during their visit. Out of the 332 completed forms, 69% were completed by nulligravid teenagers
in secondary school. These students formed our study population. The prevalence of urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) symptoms
was 17% and of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) symptoms was 15%. In all candidates these reported symptoms were mild, occurring
less than once a week. Occasional minor fecal incontinence (involuntary loss of flatus or fecal staining) was 38%; of these,
92% reported loss of flatus. Major fecal incontinence with loose bowel movements was reported by 3% of the study population.
Two girls (1%) reported nocturnal enuresis. Weight directly correlated with SUI symptoms and fecal incontinence, but not with
UUI. Fecal incontinence correlated with SUI symptoms (P = 0.0152), but not with UUI. Ten per cent of the study population were sexually active, but sexual activity did not correlate
with incontinence problems. Voiding habits were markedly variable: 30% were infrequent voiders (three times or fewer per day).
Nocturia was reported by 3%. We concluded that in nulligravid teenage female students minor fecal incontinence appears to
be the most common incontinence type; urge incontinence was slightly more common than SUI. Unlike UUI, SUI symptoms were more
prevalent with fecal incontinence, which were affected by weight. There appears to be a problem with a high prevalence of
poor voiding habits. 相似文献

To compare the smooth muscle content and apoptosis of the vagina in women with and without anterior vaginal wall prolapse.
Vaginal tissues were sampled in women with (n = 6) or without (n = 6) anterior vaginal wall prolapse undergoing hysterectomy. Smooth muscle of the vagina was studied by immunohistochemistry.
Digital image analysis was used to determine the fractional area of smooth muscle in the histologic cross-sections. Apoptosis
was assessed by TUNEL assay. The fractional area of non-vascular smooth muscle in the vagina of women with anterior vaginal
wall prolapse was significantly decreased compared to women without prolapse (0.36 ± 0.12 vs. 0.16 ± 0.12 P = 0.021) and the apoptotic index was significantly higher compared to women without prolapse (0.04 ± 0.01 vs. 0.02 ± 0.03,
P = 0.041). The fraction of smooth muscle in the vagina is significantly decreased and the rate of apoptosis is higher in women
with anterior vaginal wall prolapse compared to women without prolapse. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare Contigen combined with Durasphere to Contigen injections alone for the treatment
of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD). Subjective and objective incontinence outcomes
were compared at 2 weeks and 6 months. We compared rates of urinary retention and future incontinence surgery between groups.
Thirty-three women underwent combined injections, and 51 underwent Contigen injections. Two weeks postoperatively, more women
in the combined group were cured (72.7 vs. 39.2%, P = 0.003), but this difference diminished at 6 months (33.3 vs. 29.4%, P = 0.70). Retention was more common in the combined group (P = 0.002, odds ratio [OR] = 0.062 [95% confidence interval {CI} = 0.007, 0.52]). Twenty-three women in the Contigen and ten
in the combined group underwent subsequent incontinence surgery (P = 0.17, OR = 2.03 [95% CI = 0.80, 5.1]). Combining Contigen and Durasphere injections to treat SUI with ISD does not improve
outcomes compared to Contigen injections alone.
