Influence of pelvic floor muscle training alone or as part of a general physical activity program during pregnancy on urinary incontinence, episiotomy and third ‐ or fourth‐degree perineal tear: Systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials
ConclusionsPFMT during pregnancy proves to be an effective preventive intervention for reducing the risk of urinary incontinence and the occurrence of third- or fourth-degree perineal tears. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating PFMT into antenatal care and training programs to improve maternal well-being and overall childbirth outcomes.

Effect of Perineal Massage and Warm Compresses Technique in Postpartum Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. A Secondary Analysis from a Randomised Controlled Trial
Reprod Sci. 2023 Dec 14. doi: 10.1007/s43032-023-01424-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is common to be associated with pregnancy and birth. To date, no research has been done to understand whether the perineal massage and warm compresses technique has an impact on pelvic floor dysfunction. To assess the impact of perineal massage and warm compresses technique during the second stage of labor in pelvic floor dysfunction at 3 and 6 months postpartum. Of the 800 women recruited to randomised controlled trial to prevent perineal trauma, 496 were included in the study, with 242 (48.8%) assigned t...

Analysis of Perinatal Outcome of Forceps Delivery and Risk Factors of Postpartum Hemorrhage
CONCLUSION: The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage in the forceps assisted delivery group is higher, with occipital posterior position, abnormal coagulation function, soft birth canal tear, and lateral perineal incision being high-risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage in forceps assisted delivery. We need to strengthen prevention and control measures to improve the quality of the perinatal period. This study has guiding significance for early identification of high-risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage, strengthening pre pregnancy knowledge education, strengthening labor process monitoring, actively correcting fetal orie...
