Application effects of biofeedback electrical stimulation therapy in patients with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction
Objective:To observe application effects of biofeedback electrical stimulation therapy in patients with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 patients with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction admitted to the hospital from May 2021 to September 2023.According to the random number table method,they were divided into observation group and control group,40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with routine rehabilitation training,while the observation group was combined with biofeedback electrical stimulation therapy on the basis of that of the control group.The pelvic floor muscle strength grading,the pelvic floor pressure level,and the quality of life[general quality of life inventory-74(GQOLI-74)]score were compared between the two groups before and after the intervention.Results:After the intervention,the pelvic floor muscle strength grading of the two groups was better than that before the intervention,that of the observation group was better than that of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The levels of pelvic floor resting pressure and systolic blood pressure in the two groups were higher than those before the intervention,those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Further,the GQOLI-74 scores of psychological function,physical function,material function and social function in the two groups were higher than those before intervention,those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:The biofeedback electrical stimulation therapy can improve pelvic floor muscle strength grading,the pelvic floor resting pressure and the systolic blood pressure levels and the quality of life score in the patients with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction.Moreover,it is superior to single routine rehabilitation training.
