- Abstract
The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of hypopressive exercises on urinary incontinence symptoms and quality of life in adult menopausal women compared to a control group or another type of pelvic floor training. PEDro, Pubmed, The Cochrane, Scielo and Science direct databases were searched until 6 of august 2022. Randomized clinical trials evaluating the effects of hypopressive exercise on urinary incontinence and quality of life in women were included. The PRISMA statement (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) was considered to carry out the systematic review. To assess the methodological quality of studies it was used the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale and the Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development Classification and Evaluation (GRADE) was used to assess the quality level of the evidence. 87 studies were identified, of which only 3 of them met the inclusion criteria. The selected articles presented a sample made up of 266 adult women aged between 42 and 68 years. The results indicated a moderate level of quality of evidence for hypopressive exercises on symptoms of urinary incontinence and quality of life in menopausal women.
