Physical activity in puerperium period

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Puerperium is the period of 6 weeks after parturition. It typically brings anatomical and psychical changes. Physical exercises especially developed for puerperas are supposed to help women deal with such changes. Purpose: The aim of this study is to find out whether puerperas have been educated on the importance of physical exercises during pregnancy and whether they actively perform the exercise and in what way. Methods: Data from puerperas were collected by a questionnaire method. The questionnaires were anonymous and were distributed via gynaecological clinics in Brno city (Czech Republic) and via websites intended for women. Results: The work presents a survey of 217 puerperas. 39.2% of women have stated that they perform the exercises intended for puerperal period, and the main source of information was reported as the Internet (43.5% of respondents). Most women do exercise 2-3 times per week (an answer given by 63.5% of respondents), and the time duration of their exercising unit is typically up to 30 minutes (51.8% of respondents). The majority of women (71.8%) do exercise at home, and 60.8% of respondents do not do exercise in puerperial period at all. Conclusions: Physical activity in puerperium brings many benefits for a woman, concerning the recovery process and faster return of the body to the condition prior to pregnancy, as well as enhances physical and mental well-being. As emerged from this work, not all women are properly informed on the aforementioned benefits, therefore a proper education would be highly advisable.
