ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aims to determine the effect of pelvic floor function exercise on the improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with uterine fibroid surgery.METHODS:
The clinical data of 188 patients who underwent uterine fibroid surgery in our hospital from February 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analysed. The patients were divided into a control group and an observation group according to the nursing methods recorded in the data. The observation group received targeted nursing combined with pelvic floor function exercise based on routine intervention. General demographic data, disease and surgery-related characteristics of the patients were collected. Propensity score matching was used to balance the baseline data of the two groups. Lower urinary tract symptoms, pelvic floor function, pelvic floor muscle strength and quality of life were compared between the two groups after matching.RESULTS:
A total of 130 patients were included in the two groups, and their baseline data were not statistically significant. At 3 months after the operation, the total incidence of lower urinary tract symptoms in the observation group (10.77%) was lower than that in the control group (30.77%, p < 0.05). Before the intervention, the pelvic floor function, pelvic floor muscle strength and quality of life scores of the two groups were basically the same (p > 0.05). At 3 months after the operation, the pelvic floor function score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, but the pelvic floor muscle strength index and quality of life score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
Targeted nursing combined with pelvic floor function exercise for patients with uterine fibroids surgery can prevent the occurrence of lower urinary tract symptoms and improve the pelvic floor function, pelvic floor muscle strength and quality of life of patients and is thus worthy of promotion.Palabras clave
