Abstract:
Pelvic floor protection has a growing awareness and importance in long lasting strategies to provide female pelvic floor health. This state-of-the-art review article aims to summarize important future directions in this area. A literature search has been conducted within the last 20 years with pelvic floor protection-specific search terms. Four major work packages have been identified. (1) Epidemiology and risk stratification. (2) Mechanistic and translational research. (3) Diagnostic and preventive strategies. (4) Implementation and knowledge translation. A systematic literature search was performed and after assessing inclusion criteria and quality on expert opinion, 82 out of 1636 articles were included. The alignment for future research has been part of the analysis as well as ways of how to implement evidence based information to a day-to-day clinical routine.
