Project description:Interventions: The pelvic floor intervention for rectal cancer patients will be delivered in two stages: (1) pre-rehabilitation and (2) rehabilitation. There is actual recommendation to provide rehabilitation before surgeries in order to prepare patients to improve their functional outcomes. The content of pre-rehabilitation and rehabilitation will include pelvic floor exercises and other techniques aiming to recover pelvic floor maximal function after the surgery and to avoid low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) symptoms.
The pelvic floor intervention, including all stages and techniques, will be provided by a physical therapist with a postgraduation study on pelvic floor treatment with experience in treating rectal cancer patients. This professional will be trained by researchers on the study protocol. The intervention will take place in a private room of Hospital del Salvador.
Stage 1: Pelvic Floor Pre-rehabilitation will be delivered in one session of approximately 40 minutes with physiotherapist educating on the correct contraction of pelvic floor, teaching pelvic floor muscle exercises, and performing capacitive and sensory training with rectal balloon.
Health education will include: the most adequate positioning to evacuate, self-care strategies such as diet with high fiber and low fat, reduce spicy and stimulating food (artificial sweeteners, tea, cola drinks and chocolates), and bowel habits (possibility to have increased urgency to defecate after meal or physical activities).
A booklet was designed for this study with these instructions and exercises will be provided to the patients as well as an audio that will be sent to their cell phones using Whatsapp application. A mobile number with a whatsapp account will be maintained by the pelvic floor therapist to se
Primary outcome(s): Mean score of bowel symptoms
For the main outcome we will use the questionnaire ICIQ-B and the LARS score.[(T3) Three months after finishing pelvic floor rehabilitation treatment (PRIMARY TIMEPOINT)
(T2) Immediatelly after pelvic floor rehabilitation
(T0) baseline];Mean scores of anorectal function.
High resolution anorectal manometry will be used to assess the maximal resting pressure, maximal squeeze pressure, rectal capacity (maximal tolerable volume), and rectal sensitivity (initial sensation threshold). We will use high resolution anorectal manometry with a 24-channels water-perfused catheter (Multiplex, Alacer, Biomedica, Sao Paulo, Brazil). This equipment is a low-cost water perfused system which showed to be adequate for clinical use (Silva et al, 2018; Viebig et al, 2018). According to a previous study we will define as effective an improvement of > 15% in the anorectal manometry parameters. This test will be performed by a trained physician.

Project description:Interventions: Name: Pelvic floor rehabilitation program
Rationale: Patients after anterior resection +/- radiochemotherapy for colorectal cancer can suffer from bowel dysfunction that includes faecal incontinence and defaecatory problems. A structured pelvic floor rehabilitation program on pelvic floor muscle strengthening, anorectal sensory and coordination training can improve bowel function after surgery. This study will also examine the feasibility of the intervention in an outpatient setting.
Intervention: A 15 minutes of education session will be provided at the commencement of the program at first week. Participants will be provided education on normal bowel function and the bowel issues associated with colorectal cancer surgery. They will also receive information on good bladder and bowel habits, dietary advice, and pelvic floor exercises.The educational information and home exercise pamphlet is specifically designed for this study. Each participant will be assessed on their anorectal physiology by a colorectal surgeon and pelvic floor physiotherapist. Patient reported outcomes on bladder, bowel, sexual function and quality of life will be examined with questionnaires before and after the intervention. The intervention is a 10 week face to face program of weekly attendance to the outpatient clinic for 1 hour under supervision (ie 1 hour session, once per week for 10 weeks in an outpatient clinic). The program includes: pelvic floor muscle strengthening with use of transperineal ultrasound for visual biofeedback, anorectal sensory and coordination retraining using rectal balloon catheter biofeedback. Visual feedback will be provided via the application of a transperineal ultrasound. The patient will be able to visualise the pelvic floor muscle activity on the screen du
Primary outcome(s): Adherence to pelvic floor rehabilitation program.Proportion with >80% attendance of supervised sessions. >80% of completion for weekly home exercises. This will be assessed by an attendance log and home exercise diary completion. [Post intervention program (12 weeks)]

Project description:Purpose: Damage to the uterosacral ligaments is an important contributor to uterine and vaginal prolapse. The aim of this study was to identify differentially expressed proteins in the uterosacral ligaments of women with and without pelvic organ prolapse and analyze their relationships to cellular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of pelvic organ prolapse. Experimental Design: Uterosacral ligament connective tissue from four patients with pelvic organ prolapse and four control women underwent iTRAQ analysis followed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of differentially expressed proteins. Differentially expressed proteins were valideated using western blot analysis. Results: A total of 1789 unique protein sequences were identified in the uterosacral ligament connective tissues. 88 proteins had expression levels that were significantly different between prolapse and control groups (≥1.2-fold). Ingenuity pathway analysis demonstrated 14 differentially expressed proteins that were associated with "Connective Tissue Function". Among them, fibromodulin(FMOD), Collagen alpha-1 (XIV) chain(COL14A1), Calponin-1 (CNN-1), Tenascin (TNC), and Galectin-1(LGALS1 appeared most likely to play a role in the etiology of pelvic organ prolapse. Conclusions and clinical relevence: We identified at least 6 proteins not previously associated with the pathogenesis of pelvic organ prolapse with biologic functions that suggest a plausible relationship to the disorder. These results may be helpful for furthering our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of pelvic organ prolapse.

Project description:Interventions: The intervention is general rehabilitation plus pelvic floor muscle training program. The general rehabilitation will consist of a multidisciplinary education and exercise program, which will be provided as group sessions twice weekly for 8 weeks . Each session will last approximately one hour. The education component will include advice about nutrition, exercise, fatigue management and coping with stress and will be provided in a group format. Information will be delivered by a range of clinicians (physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, and dieticians). The exercise component will include an exercise training program supervised by a physiotherapist. The pelvic floor muscle training program will consist of physiotherapy-supervised pelvic floor muscle training sessions and bladder and bowel function advice over 12 sessions, twice weekly for 6 weeks. The training program will use a combination of 7 individual and 5 group sessions. Biofeedback will be used to facilitate pelvic floor muscle function. The training sessions will be approximately one hour long. The duration of intervention is eight weeks. To encourage adherence to the intervention protocols, telephone calls from a physiotherapist and a self report diary to record training adherence will be provided.
Primary outcome(s): Pelvic floor symptoms as assessed using the Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Bowel module[at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and at 6, 12, 24, and 60 months following baseline]

Project description:The objective of this study was to characterize symptom prevalence, awareness of pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) in family/friends, and understanding of factors contributing to the development of PFDs in women aged 19 to 30 years.This study is a cross-sectional study via online questionnaire survey of female students aged 19 to 30 years enrolled at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Results of "adolescent women" aged 19 to 24 years were compared with "young women" aged 25 to 30 years.A total of 1092 questionnaires were completed with the mean age being 23.5 ± 3.1 years. The overall rate of urinary incontinence (UI) was 10.3% without a difference between adolescent and young women (P = 0.61). There were no differences in rates of urgency UI (P = 0.061), stress UI (P = 0.29), or pelvic organ prolapse (POP) symptoms (P = 0.56) between groups. There was no difference between groups in awareness of family members with UI, fecal incontinence (FI), or POP symptoms (P ? 0.24). However, logistic regression showed that the young women were more likely to have received education regarding UI (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.6; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-3.6), FI (aOR, 3.3; 95% CI, 2.2-4.8), POP (aOR, 2.9; 95% CI, 2.1-4.2), and have greater understanding regarding causes of UI (aOR, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.7-4.8), FI (aOR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.1-2.3), and POP (aOR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.3-2.9).Women aged 25 to 30 years had more awareness and understanding of PFDs compared with adolescent women. These data may have implications for primary prevention strategies of PFDs.

Project description:Obstetrical perineal and anal sphincter lacerations can be associated with considerable sequelae. The diagnosis of short-term bowel, bladder, and healing problems can be delayed if patients are not seen until the traditional postpartum visit at 4 to 6 weeks. Specialized peripartum clinics create a unique opportunity to collaborate with obstetrical specialists to provide early, individualized care for patients experiencing a variety of pelvic floor issues during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. Although implementation of these clinics requires thoughtful planning and partnering with care providers at all levels in the obstetrics care system, many of the necessary resources are available in routine gynecologic practice. Using a multidisciplinary approach with pelvic floor physical therapists, nurses, advanced practice providers, and other specialists is important for the success of this service line and enhances the level of care provided. Overall, these clinics provide a structured means by which pregnant and postpartum women with pelvic floor symptoms can receive specialized counseling and treatment.
