Abstract

Background: Spinal cord injuries patients suffer from Bladder incontinence that can cause high mortality rates and this problem needs a noninvasive method for long term use. Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of biofeedback training of the abdominal muscles compared to biofeedback training of the pelvic floor muscles to improve the bladder control and improve the quality of life in paraplegic patients. Methods: Sixty (male and female) paraplegic patients, age range from 20 to 40 years old The mean ± SD age for the (ABT) group was 30.7 ± 7.57 years and the mean ± SD age for the (PFBT) group was 31.63 ± 7.3 years, they were divided randomly into two groups. Patients in the study group were treated by abdominal muscles biofeedback strength training and the control group were treated by pelvic floor biofeedback strength training two times per week for six consecutive weeks. Subjects in both groups were evaluated before and after the treatment by; 1) Measuring post void urine residual volume, 2) Overactive bladder questionnaire (OAB-V8) the Arabic version. Results: There was an overall significant difference after training in time and interaction (P<0.05),within group comparison revealed a significant improvement in the measured variables, between group comparison revealed significant difference of void and quality of life in favour to the (ABT) group. Conclusion: Abdominal muscles{u2019} biofeedback training must be a main point in the bladder rehabilitation program of the paraplegic patients as it decreases urine residual volume and optimizes quality of life
