According several previous studies, pelvic floor muscle training program is the best way for rehabilitating and strengthening pelvic floor muscles. Aim: To evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training program on quality of life among women with stress urinary incontinence. Subjects and method: Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilized (one group). Subjects: 110 women who have been diagnosed with stress urine incontinence. Setting: This study was applied in gynecologic outpatient clinics at hospitals and primary health care centers that follow comprehensive health insurance. Tools for data collection: A structured interview, woman’s health assessment questionnaire, The Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-Short Form (IIQ) -7, and Follow up assessment sheet. Results: Training program was effective in reducing the severity of urine incontinence in the post- and follow-up periods (5.5% and 6.4%). Mean scores of quality of life were improved at post and follow up phase (18.7±0.3, 18.0±3.1 respectively) after providing training program compared to preprogram phase (8.01±2.9) with highly statistically significant difference (p= .000). Also, mean score of women knowledge were improved at post and follow up phase (12.2± 1.2 and 11.3 ±1.8, respectively). Conclusion: Pelvic floor muscle training program was effective in improving women's quality of life and reduced stress urinary incontinence. Recommendations: Making available manual for ongoing education and training about pelvic floor muscle exercises for all women with stress urinary incontinence. | ||||
