Brief Summary  
        Title: Design, Development and Testing of Home-Based Non-invasive Pelvic Floor Muscle Rehabilitation Device : A Multiphasic Exploratory Study.

        Investigator: Ruchi Bhuva PT, Krupa Tank PhD scholar, MPT

        Background:

     The pelvic floor muscles are crucial for maintaining continence, sexual function, and supporting pelvic organs. These muscles can weaken due to factors like pregnancy, aging, obesity, and certain medical conditions. Weak pelvic floor muscles are associated with issues such as urinary and fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, sexual dysfunction, and other issues. Low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) affects 80% of patients after rectal cancer surgery. Which include altered bowel frequency, irregular bowel rhythms, fecal incontinence, and constipation. Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common health problem that has been paid more and more attention to all over the world. The most common type was stress UI (SUI). UI afflicts at least 21.6% of the global population. In response to this, a user-friendly, home-based non-invasive biofeedback device could provide a biofeedback for strengthening pelvic floor muscles and improving overall quality of life.

      Method: Phase 1 - Designing of device

      Phase 2 - Development of device

      Phase 3 - Testing of device
