Pelvic Organ Prolapse Physiotherapy (POPPY)

女性盆腔器官脱垂与生活质量不佳有关。目前可用于脱垂的标准治疗方法是手术。采用物理疗法进行保守治疗的证据尚不清楚。这项随机对照试验将检验包括盆底肌肉训练在内的物理治疗对脱垂症状和严重程度的影响，并与仅建议的生活方式进行比较。适当的保守治疗可能会减少手术的需要和相关的费用。

Pelvic organ prolapse in women is associated with poor quality of life. The standard treatment currently available for prolapse is surgery. The evidence for conservative management with physiotherapy is not clear. This randomised controlled trial will examine the effect of physiotherapy treatment, including pelvic floor muscle training, on prolapse symptoms and severity, compared with lifestyle advice only. Appropriate conservative management may reduce the need for surgery and associated costs.
