Contracation Indicator:
When fitted to the PERIFORM
evidence of the performance of the pelvic floor muscles. It may be used on its
own or when using stimulation and biofeedback equipment. When pelvic floor
muscles contract correctly the indicator will move downwards (✓).
Moving upwards indicates incorrect contraction (X) as shown in Figure 2.
Functions and benefits of the Indicator are:
•
Quantifies the strength and duration
of voluntary and involuntary
(stimulated) contractions. N.B. Voluntary
contractions can be used to reinforce
stimulated contractions.
•
Indicates need to use stimulation
to strengthen a weak pelvic floor –
i.e. little or no indicator movement.
•
Teaches bracing techniques to help
avoid leakage when coughing /
sneezing / straining etc.
•
Demonstrates the success of a pelvic
floor exercise program
