Changes in Pelvic Floor Muscle Tone after ‘Jumping Fitness’ Training—A Case Stud
2021
Aims Previous studies confirm the existence of a beneficial component of mechanical vibration and oscillation during trampoline exercises. Researchers have been interested in the possibility of using these exercises in the process of strengthening pelvic floor muscles and in cases of stress urinary incontinence. This study aimed to evaluate changes in pelvic floor muscle tone after 8 weeks of systematic ‘jumping fitness’ training and performing a follow-up observation of the maintenance of this effect after 9 months. Case report This study involved a young woman without symptoms of stress urinary incontinence who began practicing ‘jumping fitness’ 3 times a week for 2 months. After the end …
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy as a potential therapeutic tool for breast cancer related lymphedema: a narrative review of in vitro, animal and cl…
2021
Background: The treatment of breast cancer related lymphedema (BCRL) focuses on the alleviation symptoms. One of the innovative, non-invasive therapies used for this condition is extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT). Aim of the study: To review the available literature and evaluate the effectiveness of ESWT in the treatment of secondary lymphedema (in vitro works, animal experiments) and lymphedema associated with the treatment of breast cancer. Material and methods: The scientific literature review was conducted from October to December 2020. The review was carried out by searching scientifically recognized medical databases, including PubMed, MEDLINE and PEDro. Date restrictions were …
The Effect of Medium-Intensity Electromagnetic Stimulation on Pelvic Floor Muscle Activity in a Young Woman—A Case Report
2021
Aims In recent years, devices for deep electromagnetic stimulation have been implemented in clinical practice. These devices generate pulses with a frequency of 1 to 50 Hz and magnetic induction of up to 2.5 T. Due to the possibility of producing or an effective deep-penetrating mechanical vibration, electromagnetic stimulation is increasingly used in the physiotherapy of urogynecological disorders. This study aimed to analyse of the effect of deep electromagnetic stimulation on the bioelectrical activity of pelvic floor muscles in a young woman. Case report The case of a 24-year-old woman with no diagnosed stress urinary incontinence is presented. The subject underwent electromagnetic stim…
