Summary

The pelvic floor is composed of muscles and connective tissue which acts to provide support for pelvic organs, and weakness or injury to the pelvic floor can result in pelvic floor dysfunction. Respect for patient autonomy is a guiding principle in medicine and is of increasing importance for patients. The PREPARED Trial hopes to demonstrate whether a single workshop on pelvic floor health during pregnancy will lead to improved knowledge of pelvic floor symptoms postpartum, increase the practice of pelvic floor muscle exercises, increase satisfaction with their delivery experience, and change participants preferences and thoughts surrounding various modes of delivery.
