This study details a health education program designed to improve adherence to pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) therapy for women experiencing urinary incontinence (UI). The program development utilized intervention mapping and established theoretical models to create targeted strategies for better patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Women's Health
  • Behavioral Science
  • Health Education

Background:

  • Urinary incontinence (UI) significantly impacts women's quality of life.
  • Adherence to pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) therapy is crucial for managing UI.
  • Existing interventions may lack targeted strategies for promoting PFME adherence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development process of a health education program.
  • To enhance adherence to pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) therapy in women with urinary incontinence (UI).
  • To apply the intervention mapping (IM) approach for evidence-based program design.

Main Methods:

  • Needs assessment including health problem, quality of life, and behavioral/environmental determinants.
  • Application of the intervention mapping (IM) approach to formulate program objectives.

  • Selection and translation of intervention methods based on empirical and theoretical data.
  • Integration of transtheoretical model, self-regulation theory, and targeted communication principles.

    • Main Results:

    • A structured health education program was developed.
    • The program design is transparent and based on a clear theoretical rationale.
    • Strategies were created to influence determinants of adherence to PFME therapy.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed program offers a systematic approach to improving PFME adherence for women with UI.
    • Intervention mapping provides a robust framework for creating effective health education programs.
    • The program's theoretical underpinnings support its potential for enhancing patient self-management and outcomes.
