Summary

Pelvic floor dysfunction diseases seriously affect the quality of life. Childbirth, especially vaginal birth, is significantly related to pelvic floor dysfunction diseases, which mainly cause urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Studies have found that exercise during pregnancy can help reduce the rate of caesarean section and prevent the occurrence of organic pelvic floor disorders. Pregnant women without obvious comorbidities should be encouraged to participate in fitness programs that include core muscle exercises.

At present, there is no clinical research data about the influence of pelvic and abdominal mechanical exercise during pregnancy on the way of delivery and postpartum pelvic floor rehabilitation.

This study is a clinical randomized controlled study, use pelvic and abdominal mechanical exercises during pregnancy to train proprioception of the pelvis, increase local muscle strength, ensure physical strength while taking into account flexibility, to evaluate the impact of pelvic and abdominal mechanical exercises during pregnancy on the cesarean section rate of primiparas and on Prevention of pregnancy-related pain during pregnancy and postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction diseases.To provide strong evidence-based medical evidence for the promotion of pelvic and abdominal mechanical exercise during pregnancy in the majority of pregnant women in the future.
