About this trial

This study will be conducted to compare aerobic and resistance exercises on disability after abdominal myomectomy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

All patients are conscious and ambulant.

Their ages ranged from 30-60 years old.

All patients will be under post abdominal myomectomy (6-12 months) management program.

All patients will not suffer from any complication post abdominal myomectomy, except weakness of abdominal muscles.

Disqualifiers

The patient who has cardiovascular diseases, or uncontrolled hypertension.

The patient who has cardiac pacemakers or other implanted electronic devices.

Uncooperative patients.

Patients who have cardiopulmonary diseases.

Trial design

Treatments tested in this trial

  • aeropic exercises

    Other intervention

    * Treadmill Walking: will begin at a low speed and incline, progressing gradually based on endurance. * Stationary Cycling: Low resistance cycling, will focus on steady, rhythmic pedaling. * Step Aerobics: Low-impact stepping movements to music, with a focus on maintaining proper posture. * The workload was increased incrementally by adjusting: Speed (walking/cycling pace), Resistance (stationary cycling or water exercises), Duration (gradually increasing from 20 to 30 minutes for the main session), Intensity progression was based on the Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) or patient-reported effort, ensuring safe advancement.

  • resistance exercises

    Other intervention

    The patient will be prepared with preparatory explanations about each tool will be utilized i.e., sand bags, thera Bands, and swiss ball.Twelve exercises will be utilized for 12 weeks, three sessions/ week. The intervention will be applied by a trained physical therapist. First of all, each participant will be instructed to relax thighs, bottom and abdomen musculature.Each participant will be able to do 10 slow contractions each time, holding them for 10 seconds each with rests of 4 seconds in between. Then do not hold your breath or tighten rectus abdominis muscles at the same time. Will instruct participants to try holding each squeeze for a few seconds utilizing sand bags, thera band, and swiss balls.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

functional disability

Functional Independence Measure Scale was used to assess functional disability. it includes 18 items divided into two domains: Motor tasks (13 items) and cognitive tasks (5 items). score (1-7) to each of the 18 items based on the patient's observed performance.-Total FIM score range: 18 (complete dependence) to 126 (complete independence).

Time frame
up to 12 weeks
2

pain intensity

Visual analogue scale consisted of a line, usually 100mm long, the patient was instructed to place a vertical mark on to indicate his pain, ranging from no pain or discomfort (0), to the worst pain (100) that the patient could feel

Time frame
up to 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

rectus abdominal muscle strength

The manual muscle test is a valid and reliable dependent in assessment of musculoskeletal musculatures obtained using the procedure. Each dimension is rated on a 7-point scale: 7 is complete independence, 6 is modified independence, 5 equals supervision or setup, 4 equals minimal contact assistance (client expends 75% or more of the effort), 3 is moderate assistance (client expends between 50% and 75% of the effort), 2 is maximal assistance (client expends between 25% and 50% of the effort), and 1 equals total assistance (client expends \<25% of the effort).

Time frame
up to 12 weeks
