Registry summary
This will be a quantitative, quasi-experimental, and longitudinal study spanning 18 weeks of intervention, followed by a 24-week follow-up, scheduled to begin in January 2025.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a multidisciplinary intervention comprising physiotherapy, physical exercise, and psychoeducation on fall risk and urinary incontinence in non-institutionalized older adult women aged 60 to 80 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups:
- A multicomponent exercise group with verbal instructions for pelvic floor exercises.
- A multicomponent exercise group with verbal instructions for pelvic floor exercises and psychoeducation.
- A multicomponent exercise group without verbal instructions for pelvic floor exercises.
- A control group.
Multicomponent exercise sessions will be conducted twice a week, while the psychoeducation group will participate in five group therapy sessions throughout the program. The variables to be analyzed include balance, strength, power, pelvic floor function, quality of life, and self-esteem.
