1) The study compared urinary incontinence symptoms and pelvic floor structure in nulliparous and multiparous women during pregnancy. 2) They found that multiparous women had a higher prevalence and more severe urinary incontinence symptoms than nulliparous women. 3) Ultrasound evaluation revealed that multiparous women also had weaker pelvic floor support as evidenced by differences in pelvic floor anatomy compared to nulliparous women.

Introduction
URINARY INCONTINENCE (UI)
during pregnancy
Common  16,8-72%

Risk of UI doubled 15 years after UI during first pregnancy


(Dolan,2003)

Mainly focused on nulliparous women > multiparous

Pathophysiology  pregnancy-associated pelvic floor


changes (Clement et al., 2013). Changes involved the levator
hiatal dimensions and the position and mobility of the bladder
neck (BN) (Dietz et.al)
AIM

To assess and compare the differences in


the symptomatology of UI during pregnancy
and the morphology of the pelvic floor
anatomy between nulliparous and
multiparous women
Materials and Methods
358 singleton pregnant women
In Shenzhen July 2016-January 2017

Exclution Criteria:
• history of UI before pregnancy
• history of abdominal and vaginal surgery
• diabetes and hypertension;
• placenta previa, threatened abortion
• amniotic fluid abnormalities, fetal growth
restriction, or vaginal bleeding

Elimination Criteria :
• failure to complete all investigation
content
• unreliable pelvic ultrasound data

(Cont’d
Materials and Methods
Interview age,gestational weeks, BMI, constipation during pregnancy,
number of pregnancies, prior abortions/miscarriages, and
delivery history.
UI diagnosed using International Consultation of
Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF).

Transperineal Voluson E8 system with a 59 MHz three-dimensional


ultrasound auto sweep transducer.

2 and 3 dimensional cross-sectional sonograms of the


pelvic floor in the resting position and at maximal
Valsalva maneuver were collected.

performed by 3 experienced investigators who were


blinded to all other information.

Measure of: bladder neck vertical position (BNVP); α


angle; β angle ; γ angle, Hiatal Area

Analysis SPSS 13.0 and GraphPad Prism 5.0; significance :0.05


P=0,002 P<0,005

31,8
Limitations

1. its cross-sectional design.

2. Women should ideally be examined before, during, and


after their pregnancy preexisting differences in the
pelvic floor anatomy and the absence of UI before,
during, and after pregnancy

3. Could not eliminate the possibility unable to push


downward to the extent required for the
VMunderestimation of the actual pelvic floor
parameters.
Conclusion

multiparous women had a higher prevalence of


UI and more severe UI symptoms than did
nulliparous women, which could be associated
with weaker pelvic floor support.
