Development and Feasibility Testing of a Group-based PFMT Programme for Antenatal Women in Nanjing City in China
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Group-based PFMT group for Urinary Incontinence. Completed, enrolled 48 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The main objective is to co-design and assess the practicality of group-based Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) programme in pregnant women. The co-design of the PFMT programme will involve the stakeholder meeting. The feasibility of the group-based Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) programme will be achieved by using ICIQ-SF questionnaire before intervention, the completion time of the intervention and 42-day after delivery. Pregnant women with or without UI at Nanjing maternity and child health care hospital will be offered to participate if they meet the criteria of the research. Participants will be randomized into two groups, interventions and control group that gets standard care at the hospital. The intervention group will meet the midwife to receive supervised group-based PFMT once a month for 4 months in groups. Doing correct PFMT during pregnancy can help women to prevent or decrease the risk of developing UI in pregnancy and postnatal period.
