NCT ID: NCT05962918 Completed - Clinical trials for Satisfaction, Patient

Perineal Massage Performed During the Labour

Start date: December 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study, perineal massage was applied to primiparous women who did not give birth before, as a quasi-experimental control group to determine the effects of massage on birth comfort, perineal trauma and perineal pain.

NCT ID: NCT04754984 Completed - Clinical trials for Pelvic Floor Disorders

Postpartum Pelvic Floor Workshop

PPFW
Start date: February 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

After having a baby, there are some expected changes in pelvic floor function. However, tearing of the pelvic floor, having a large baby and needing a vacuum or forceps to deliver the baby put women at risk for having pelvic floor disorders. Our study aims to see if, in women who had a high risk for pelvic floor disorders, a pelvic floor education workshop four weeks after delivery can improve pelvic floor disorders compared to those that did not have a workshop.

NCT ID: NCT04480684 Completed - Obstetric Trauma Clinical Trials

The Effect of Perineal Wound Infection on the Anal Sphincter

Start date: August 14, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Perineal injury following childbirth can result in complications such as wound infection. The perineum has closely related anatomical structures including the external genital organs and the anal triangle which contains the anal sphincter muscles. Therefore as wound infection can extend and as muscles of the perineum sit in such close proximity to each other, the anal sphincter muscles could potentially be affected. This could also potentially include cases of perineal injury where the anal sphincter was not injured. However ultrasound has never been used to investigate this. Endoanal ultrasound is the gold standard diagnostic tool in the assessment of obstetric anal sphincter injury. The anal sphincter can also be visualised using multiplanar transperineal ultrasound(three/four-dimensional. Therefore both modalities could be used. However, it has been shown that transperineal ultrasound has a high positive predictive value and therefore is able to correctly identify an intact anal sphincter, but low positive predictive value; meaning poor detection of sphincter defects. Therefore, although it cannot completely substitute endoanal ultrasound (the gold standard in investigating obstetric anal sphincter injuries), it provides and adjunct/alternative for women who cannot tolerate endoanal ultrasound. The investigators plan to perform an observational study to evaluate to the natural history of perineal wound infections. Patients will be assessed weekly with endoanal ultrasound and/or transperineal ultrasound until the wound infection has resolved and the wound has clinically healed. If a bacterial wound swab has not been taken prior to recruitment or wound swab results are not available, one will be taken to detect the causative organisms. Appropriate antibiotics will then be given to cover the detected organism. Bacterial burden and will also be measured weekly using the MolecuLight i:X; a bacterial autofluorescence camera which captures the presence and load of bacteria. In wounds that have superficially dehisced; exact wound measurements including wound surface area, depth, volume and healing progress will be precisely measured using the Silhouette® 3D camera

NCT ID: NCT04431102 Completed - Pregnancy Clinical Trials

Pilates and the Pelvic Floor: A Quasi-experimental Study

Start date: November 5, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this paper, it is postulates that in pregnant women, the practice of PM led by a qualified professional for a period of four weeks can reduce the incidence of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) by decreasing the number of birth injuries.

NCT ID: NCT04128033 Completed - Perineum; Injury Clinical Trials

Impact of the Puncture of the RP6 Point on the Ampliation and Injuries of the Perineum During Childbirth

PELVPUNCTURE
Start date: January 4, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

During the study period, any patient who enters labour and reports to the maternity ward and meets the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria is offered to participate in the study by the midwife acupuncturist present. After signing the informed consent, a numbered envelope with the randomization arm is assigned to the patient. The acupuncturist midwife does not perform the delivery herself. At the time of the expulsive efforts, she punctures the point drawn at random. The patient's participation in the study ends when she leaves the labour room after the birth.
