Overview

Systematic review highlights variability in outcomes for pelvic floor prehabilitation in patients, suggesting it may improve urinary continence and quality of life.

Key Points

  • Pelvic floor prehabilitation improves urinary continence and sexual function following radical prostatectomy, as highlighted by the overall findings.
  • Significant methodological variability across studies was found, with a total of 642 participants included in the five selected studies.
  • A systematic review of multiple databases identified inconsistencies in treatment protocols and effectiveness of pelvic floor interventions.
  • Clinical trials are essential to standardize interventions and ensure robust evidence for better patient care outcomes.
