Finite element model focused on stress distribution in the levator ani muscle during vaginal delivery
Original language description
The objective of this study was to develop a sophisticated MRI-based model to simulate changes in the levator ani muscle (MLA) during vaginal delivery. The female pelvis and the fetal head were modeled by rigid bodies. The MLA and obturator were represented by Ogden material model. The boundary conditions reflected all anatomical constraints and supports. The mean stress values in the MLA during fetal head passage were 4.91–7.93 MPa. The highest stress values were induced in the pubovisceral and puborectal MLA (mean 27.46 MPa). The MLA was elongated by nearly 2.5 times from its initial resting position. The absolute stress values were highest in muscle area arising from the pubic bone. This area is at the highest risk for muscle injuries with long-term complications.
