What this Trial Is About
Researchers are studying women who have experienced an obstetric anal sphincter injury OASI during a previous pregnancy and who have suboptimal or abnormal anal incremental squeeze pressures. The study aims to evaluate whether a guided course of pelvic floor muscle exercises can improve anal sphincter function and potentially broaden delivery options, including making vaginal delivery a possibility when it might otherwise be contraindicated. The study is observational and focuses on assessing outcomes related to anal sphincter strength and quality of life.
