Conclusions
In this study, the analysis found that muscle strength of fast and slow
muscles and the stability of slow muscles in vaginal delivery group,
especially in forceps delivery subgroup, were weaker than those in
cesarean delivery group at 6-8 weeks postpartum. And cesarean section
may also impact PFM function through increased muscle tension. Pelvic
floor function examination, performed at the early postpartum stage,
could timely identify the scale and type of postpartum pelvic floor
muscle impairment. It is very useful to instruct the particular recovery
training to improve women’s quality of life.
