Manual Therapy Ther Ex Relaxation Training Pt. Edu EMG Modalities |
|
Pelvicfloor exercise for prolapse ( 4 phases of rehabilitation)
|
-Developmentof the ability to be aware of the region -Specificlocalized training and relaxation -Exercisingfunctionally related muscle groups with graded load -Integratingmovements into daily activities to make the automatic |
|
Muscles that provide accessory contraction as apatient attempts to isolate her pelvic floor muscles
|
|
|
Effect of dehydration on bladder habit
|
|
|
Mechanismof sympathomimetic drugs prescribed for urinary incontinence
|
Anticholinergicdrugs: block nerves that control bladder muscle contraction and allow forrelaxation of the bladder smooth muscle. Tricyclicantidepressants – “paralyze” smooth muscle of the bladder AlphaAgonist – contraction of the internal urethral sphincter and increases theurethral resistance to urinary flow |
|
Knackexercise |
Bracing,perineal lock, pelvic clutch, kegal when you cough Quick anticipatory PFMContraction or holding back |
