It is recommended as a first-line treatment for urinary incontinence (stress, urge, mixed), pelvic organ prolapse, and fecal incontinence. Evidence also suggests its potential to enhance sexual function in both men and women.\n\nTo teach proper pelvic floor contraction, individuals must first learn the anatomical location, structure, and function of these muscles. Various teaching strategies can support motor learning, such as verbal cues (commands or imagery), visual input (anatomical models or illustrations), physical guidance (tactile feedback), and environmental adjustments (comfortable positions, safe space). Yet, the choice of teaching method in clinical practice is currently based only on experience, not evidence.\n\nThis study aims to compare the effectiveness of four different PFMT teaching models-brochure-based, verbal instruction-based, visual instruction-based, and external palpation-aided-in teaching correct pelvic floor contraction and improving awareness in healthy adult women. It will be conducted as a four-arm randomized controlled trial. Participants will be evaluated before the training, immediately after, and one week later.\n\nThe findings from this study will help identify the most effective and practical approach for teaching PFMT. Although the study is conducted with healthy women without pelvic symptoms, the results will inform better training strategies for individuals with pelvic floor dysfunction, including those with urinary problems, chronic diseases, or pregnancy-related pelvic floor issues. Ultimately, this research seeks to fill a gap in the current literature and contribute to more evidence-based clinical practice.",[30,69,70],"Healthy Adult Women","Pelvic Floor Muscle Training",[72,73,69,74],"pelvic floor muscle training","pelvic floor muscle exercise","Comparison Models","RECRUITING","2026-03-23",{"date":78,"type":46},"2026-03-27",{"date":80,"type":46},"2025-08-04",{"date":82,"type":21},"2026-06-30",{"name":84,"class":53},"Izmir University of Economics",{"id":86,"slug":87,"hasResults":11,"nctId":88,"briefTitle":89,"officialTitle":90,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":91,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":63,"minAge":17,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":92,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":94,"briefSummary":95,"conditions":96,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":75,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":98,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":99,"startDateStruct":101,"completionDateStruct":103,"leadSponsor":105,"locationsCount":54},"100569103","video-based-pelvic-floor-muscle-therapy-100569103","NCT06689891","Video-Based Pelvic Floor Muscle Therapy","Utilizing Remote, Video-Based Pelvic Floor Muscle Therapy: A Feasibility Trial","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosis of pelvic floor dysfunction with referral for PFR\n* English-speaking\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Unable to access web-based videos\n* Unable to speak English",{"count":93,"type":21},20,[24],"This study is a feasibility, pilot trial of remote, video-based pelvic floor muscle therapy (PFMT) for patients with pelvic floor disorders, including pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence and anorectal dysfunction.

Pelvic floor muscle exercises are generally encouraged by healthcare providers to their patients after birth. However, it is often difficult to confirm whether a patient is performing pelvic floor muscle contractions correctly. A supervised pelvic floor physiotherapy session allows a professional to assess the pelvic floor and give their verbal feedback to patients. However even in this setting, patient's are reliant on the physiotherapist and have no way to assess their own performance. The 'biofeedback approach' allows for the clinician and patient to visually assess and modify their performance and can potentially allow for more effective therapy and better engagement. Transperineal ultrasonography is a widely available, safe and non-invasive biofeedback tool that can used at the bedside in order to assess pelvic floor muscle contractions. Our aim is to assess if using transperineal ultrasound can enhance the ability of postpartum patients to perform effective pelvic floor muscle therapy.",[70,120,121,122,97,30,123,124,125,37,126],"Transperineal Ultrasound","Biofeedback Therapy","Postpartum","Pelvic Floor, Obstetric","Pelvic Floor Dysfunction","Pelvic Floor Health After Childbirth","Physiotherapy Specialty",[72,128,129,130,131,132,133,134],"biofeedback","transperineal ultrasound","pelvic floor exercises","physiotherapy","pelvic floor dysfunction","pelvic floor disorder","pelvic floor contraction","2025-07-03",{"date":137,"type":46},"2025-07-15",{"date":139,"type":46},"2025-05-20",{"date":141,"type":21},"2026-09",{"name":143,"class":53},"Singapore General Hospital"]
