Filter by:The aim of this study is investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique on blood flow velocity, pain, premenstrual symptoms and quality of life in premenstrual syndrome patients. There are tree groups in the study. These groups are; progressive muscle relaxation group, myofascial relaxation technique and control group. Evaluations will be made by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. Participants will be evaluated within the first 3 days of their menstrual cycle. Baseline assessment and post- treatment assessment will be done. Follow-up evaluation will be done on the fifth cycle, two cycles after the post-treatment evaluation.
Pelvic endometriosis is a complex estrogen-dependent inflammatory syndrome of unknown etiology, altering the microenvironment of the peritoneal cavity and probably endometrial receptivity, and adversely affecting the physiological processes associated with fertilization. Literature data suggest that the distribution of immune system cells in the eutopic endometrium in the presence of endometriosis differs from the physiological state. The functioning of the immune system seems to be significantly modified not only in the foci of endometriosis, but also in the eutopic endometrium, affecting its physiological functions. Chronic endometritis (CE) is a potential factor impairing endometrial receptivity in the course of endometriosis. However, it is not known whether CE is one of the complications of endometriosis or perhaps an element of its pathogenesis. At the moment, endometrial diagnostics is not obligatory in the treatment of endometriosis in women of reproductive age, but it could potentially bring additional benefits and contribute to the improvement of obstetric results and increase the effectiveness of infertility treatment in women with endometriosis.
The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the effectiveness of transverse friction and Thiele massage on pain, quality of life and sexual functions in female patients with chronic pelvic pain. The study will be performed on 20 female patients with pelvic floor muscle tenderness, who applied to the Urology Clinic in Istanbul and were diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain.
The menstrual cycle is governed by hormonal changes. Each cycle can be divided into three phases based on events in the ovary (ovarian cycle) or in the uterus (uterine cycle). H0: There will be no correlation between pelvic pain and postural stability in healthy young women during the menstrual cycle H0: There will be no correlation between low back pain and postural stability in healthy young women during the menstrual cycle H0: There will be no correlation between pelvic pain and low back pain in healthy young women during the menstrual cycle
Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) is a recent innovation in minimally invasive surgery which has already proven its non-inferiority to conventional abdominal laparoscopy (CAL) for hysterectomy in terms of efficiency and safety. However, the investigators note a lack of medical literature and no specific randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing women's sexual function after vNOTES for benign adnexal surgery. The aim of this RCT is to confirm the non-inferiority of the vNOTES approach for benign adnexal pathology compared to CAL on women's sexual function. Secondary outcomes will evaluate vNOTES's efficiency, morbidity and postoperative complications compared to CAL for benign adnexal surgery. The relationship between adnexal mass morcellation/aspiration and the quality of the histological analysis on surgical specimens will also be evaluated as secondary outcome.
This study relies on the use of a smartphone application (SOMA) that the investigators developed for tracking daily mood, pain, and activity status in acute pain, chronic pain, and healthy controls over four months.The primary goal of the study is to use fluctuations in daily self-reported symptoms to identify computational predictors of acute-chronic pain transition, pain recovery, and/or chronic pain maintenance or flareups. The general study will include anyone with current acute or chronic pain, while a smaller sub-study will use a subset of patients from the chronic pain group who have been diagnosed with chronic low back pain, failed back surgery syndrome, or fibromyalgia. These sub-study participants will first take part in one in-person EEG testing session while completing simple interoception and reinforcement learning tasks and then begin daily use of the SOMA app. Electrophysiologic and behavioral data from the EEG testing session will be used to determine predictors of treatment response in the sub-study.
The purpose of this study is to learn about nerve function and pelvic muscle function. To do this we will compare the pelvic nerve and muscle function of women with chronic pelvic pain to those who do not have chronic pelvic pain. Understanding the pain may lead to better treatments in the future.
Objective: Physical therapists utilize telerehabilitation as the common term for telehealth applications. Many physiotherapists worked as telehealth providers during the coronavirus pandemic. The objective of the study will show the efficacy of Telerehabilitation-Based Physical Therapy (TBPT) on pain intensity and treatment satisfaction in patients with chronic pelvic pain. Method: This study is a prospective study of patients with chronic pelvic pain.42 participants will include the study. Patients who have any other distribution pattern of pelvic pain were equally considered for therapy. Women age between 18-50 years will be include. Their symptoms should be one of these follows such as chronic pain in pelvic region, hyperalgesia in vulva, and pain during sitting or intercourse. They will get diagnosed by a gynecologist who is a multidisciplinary team comprising and referred to a pelvic health physiotherapist. Prior to treatment patients will complete questionnaires and interview a pelvic health physiotherapist. Pain symptoms will be assessed with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and The Pelvic Pain Impact Questionnaire (PPIQ) before and after treatment. Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) for evaluating patient satisfaction after treatment. Women with chronic pelvic pain will be treated for 16 sessions (an hour for each session) in 8 weeks with the TBPT technique by the same pelvic health physiotherapist (AB). Patients will apply internal and external trigger point release therapy and self-massage techniques by themselves with Telerehabilitation-Based Physical Therapy.
The objective of this work is to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of cannabis extract in women with endometriosis who have already undergone hormonal contraceptive treatment and surgery without satisfactory response.
The primary aims of this research are three folds: (1) To identify more relatively effective interventions for improving pain symptoms in CP/CPPS patients. (2) To ascertain the correlation between PFM elastic modulus and tenderness symptoms. This may find a more objective method of assessing efficacy. (3) To determine the correlation between the intensity of the sympathetic response and the patient's symptoms and to explore other possible pathogenetic mechanisms.
