Filter by:The objective of this study is to assess the impacts of utilitarian exercise versus high frequency anscutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on pain and sleep quality in students with primary dysmenorrhea.
The study will be a randomized clinical trial in which the effect of connective tissue manipulation will be compared with the effect of stretching exercises on pain and severity of symptoms in primary dysmenorrhea. Inclusion criteria will include nulliparous females in the age range of 18-25 years old. Exclusion criteria will be women with irregular menses (<21 and >35 days), systemic and gynecological diseases (gastrointestinal, autoimmune, psychiatric diseases, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory diseases), pregnant women, previous pelvic surgery, traumatic injury. The participants will be allocated to two groups, group A and B. Group A will receive connective tissue manipulation on sacral, lumbar, lower thoracic and anterior pelvic regions with the patient in sitting and supine positions. Group B will receive active stretching exercise regime including forward, backward ad side trunk bending, heel raise, half squatting, knee to chest, hamstring stretching, calf stretching and abdominal contractions.
Dysmenorrhea and its associated symptoms are very common in women. In Pakistan, almost 78% of women report Primary Dysmenorrhea. This will be a randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups. one group will be receiving functional exercises along with water intake and the other will be receiving no interventions.
The main purpose of study is to manage the unpleasant pain suffered by females during Mensturation. The aim of this study is to guide physiotherapist that how to apply these exercises to manage dysmenorrhea.
The present study aims to verify the analgesic potential of a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) device using patients with primary dysmenorrhea and compare it with a control period without usage.
This study was a randomized controlled trial. It included young girls with primary dysmenorrhea in a district located in the south of Turkey and was conducted between March 01, 2021 and June 30, 2021. The sample size of this research was decided by performing a power analysis in the power statistical program. Considering the parameters of the groups, the effect size was calculated to be 0.5003604. Since α was found to be 0.05 and power (1 - β) was 0.95, a total number of 66 participants were distributed into three equal groups (sage oil massage: 22, Reiki: 22, control: 22). Considering the possibility of case losses, 30 participants were included in each group; finally, a total of 90 people were included in the study. For data collection, a questionnaire regarding sociodemographic characteristics and the visual analog scale (VAS) were used. Reiki and massage with sage oil were applied for 30 minutes, and no application was performed on the control group.
Dysmenorrhea; It is defined as painful menstrual bleeding and is included in the 10th Revision of International Disease Statistics and Related Health Problems published by the World Health Organization in 1992. In women with dysmenorrhea, pain usually begins within 1-2 years after menarche, is intermittent, cramp-like, predominantly in the suprapubic region, and may sometimes be accompanied by various symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. The incidence of dysmenorrhea can often differ because most women suffering from this problem do not seek any health care services. Symptoms of the menstrual period may negatively affect women in all areas of life by causing various somatic and psychological problems. The state of being absent at least once at school or work due to symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea has been reported by 13-51% of women suffering from this condition. In the treatment of dysmenorrhea, the application of exercise to reduce the level of pain and alleviate the severity of symptoms was started by Mosler in 1914. Mosler demonstrated that exercise pumps blood to the uterus, thereby reducing menstrual pain. In later recent studies, it was found that exercise increases beta-endorphin hormone secretion, which has a natural pain reliever effect in the body; suggested that it reduces stress, pain, and prostaglandin levels. Therefore, the use of exercise as a therapy is thought to improve not only pain and mental health symptoms, but also the quality of life. As of March 11, 2020, since the World Health Organization defined Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a pandemic. In the current epidemic process, the concept of "social distance" has been emphasized as the most important and basic way of reducing the risk of transmission from close contact, and the importance of choosing telerehabilitation has been emphasized once again. Online application of exercise programs can be defined as telerehabilitation, as the transmission of rehabilitation services over long distances by using electronic information and communication technology. In recent years, it has become one of the popular areas with the development of technology. Due to the limited number of studies on this subject in the literature, our study aimed to investigate the effect of the online yoga-based exercise program on women with primary dysmenorrhea.
This study is aimed at determining the effect of high intensity interval training VS yoga on pain, catastrophizing and quality of life among young females with dysmenorrhea.
Superficial heat therapy is mainly used to relieve menstrual pain, but it does not penetrate deeper than the skin tissue. In order to penetrate deep into the deep layers and promote tissue relaxation, deep heat therapy can be effective. The treatment time for deep heat treatment is controversial, and there is no study on deep heat treatment using radio frequency for dysmenorrhea. Therefore, in this study, by applying radiofrequency waves at different times to the lower abdomen for patients with primary dysmenorrhea, the pain and changes in the autonomic nervous system were compared with thermotherapy to suggest appropriate therapeutic interventions.
Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a pain that occurs in the menstrual period without pathological pelvic disorder. Excessive prostaglandin release causes uterine contraction and leads to uterine hypoxia and ischemia, which results in extreme abdominal cramps and pain. Music therapy is one of the complementary treatment methods in the management of pain for PD which is an intervention that is not expensive and has no side effects. Another complementary treatment method is for PD is chocolate. In the literature; there have a few studies about the effect of the music and dark chocolate on the primary dysmenorrhea but no studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of the music and dark chocolate on PD. The following is the protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial, where an experimental group 1 listened to a 30-minute song, an experimental group 2 ate dark chocolate and a control group had no intervention for the same time and conditions. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of dark chocolate and music on PD. This pain measured through a 10 cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in nursing students from the Faculty of Health Sciences at the Manisa Celal Bayar University, Manisa, Turkey. Additionally, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was used to assess the trait and state anxiety.
