Sponsor's own description

Background: One of the many consequences of pregnancy that may negatively affect a woman's quality of life is stress urinary incontinence caused by activities of daily living especially those associated with increased intraabdominal pressure. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of global postural correction exercises on stress urinary incontinence among pregnant women. Participants and Methods: Forty primigravida women (aged between 30-39 years), with a single fetus, diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence participated in the study. Participants were assigned randomly into two groups: Study group (group A; n=20) and control group (group B; n=20). The participants were tested twice, before and after a 12-week period, during which group A received global postural correction exercises in addition to Kegel exercises, while group B performed only Kegel exercises. A perineometer was used to evaluate the change in vaginal squeeze pressure both before and after conducting the study. Urogenital Distress Inventory Questionnaire (UDI-6) was used to assess changes in incontinence severity symptoms.
