Résumé
To investigate the effects of pelvic floor training on pain, sexual dysfunction and quality of life in female patients with primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) and determine whether pelvic floor training was superior to an education program. Forty-six pSS patients (all women) with an average age of 47.78 ± 9.18 years were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups as a pelvic floor training group and control group for 8 weeks. Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Pelvic Pain Impact Questionnaire (PPIQ), Female Sexual Function Scale (FSFI), Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), Pelvic Floor Disability Index-20 (PFDI-20), and Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire (PFIQ-7) were used to evaluate the outcomes. All evaluations were performed at baseline and at the end of the 8th week. When the groups were compared before training, there was no significant difference (p > .05). In post-training comparisons, there were significant differences in VAS, PPIQ, FSFI, PFIQ-7, and PFDI-20 in the pelvic floor training group (p values between .02 and .00), and in FSFI-lubrication, PFIQ-7, and PFDI-20 (p values between .00 and .03) in the control group. According to Δ values, the pelvic floor training group was found to be superior in terms of FSFI orgasm, pain, and lubrication scores (p = .00) and all sub-parameters of PFDI-20 (p = .00). Pelvic floor training has a positive effect on the sexual dysfunction and discomfort caused by pelvic symptoms in patients with pSS. Pelvic floor training should be included in rehabilitation programs to improve sexual function and pelvic floor dysfunctions for patients with pSS.
