Efectos de la fisioterapia en la disfunción del piso pélvico y calidad de vida en mujeres posparto - revisión sistemática tipo Scooping

Abstract

This research study arises from the need to inquire about the main problems presented by early women: urinary incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction, because there are multiple risk factors that predispose the quality of life of these women and their daily activities. The objective of this systematic review in the different databases (Scielo, Pubmed, Science direct) was to demonstrate the effectiveness of the different physiotherapy techniques applied in the treatment of pelvic floor and urinary incontinence for the improvement of quality of life. We found 409 articles from which duplicate articles were removed and those that did not meet the inclusion criteria; submitting articles that met those criteria to the PEDro scale which left 4 articles that did meet the inclusion criteria. It was evident that most of the articles found in the different databases did not have the selection criteria for the treatment of pelvic floor in early postpartum women. It was possible to conclude from this research that the techniques applied in physiotherapy were not as efficient on the study variables (pain, strength, quality of life, pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary incontinence) evidencing the little research that exists regarding the effectiveness of the different physiotherapeutic techniques on pelvic floor dysfunction and quality of life in postpartum women.
