Group-based follow-up for women after obstetric anal sphincter injury
A group-based follow-up program is being tested to see if it can improve quality of life for women who had a tear at the anal sphincter after childbirth.
-
Physiotherapy and cold‑pack treatment for first-time mothers with perineal tears after vaginal delivery
This will test whether pelvic floor muscle exercises plus cryotherapy started right after birth reduce perineal pain for first-time mothers who had a grade 2 or higher tear or an episiotomy.
-
Pelvic floor exercise program for weak anal sphincter after childbirth
This program will try guided pelvic floor exercises to see if they improve anal squeeze strength in women who had an obstetric anal sphincter injury and low anorectal manometry readings.
-
Evaluating 3D Ultrasound for Anal Sphincter Assessment
This study is testing new 3D ultrasound techniques to see how well they can check the condition of the anal sphincter in pregnant women and new mothers to better understand related injuries and symptoms.
-
Care pathways for women with obstetric anal sphincter injury-related incontinence
This study looks at how women with incontinence from childbirth-related injuries are currently cared for to see if better support can be provided.
