Abstract:Objective To evaluate the value of high-frequency ultrasound before and after Flexi-bar exercise training combined with vascular electrical stimulation in postpartum patients with rectus abdominis diastasis.Methods The medical records of 87 patients with postpartum rectus abdominis separation admitted to Changzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 2022 to April 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into observation group (45 cases, Flexi-bar exercise training combined with vascular electrical stimulation) and control group (42 cases, vascular electrical stimulation) by treatment method.The distance between rectus abdominis muscles was evaluated by high-frequency ultrasound. Abdominal circumference, distance between rectus abdominis muscles, root mean square root of rectus abdominis muscle, muscle fiber strength and quality of life of two groups were compared.Results The differences in lower abdominal circumference, middle abdominal circumference and upper abdominal circumference before and after treatment in the observation group were all greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in the distances between the rectus abdominis muscles 3 cm below, 3 cm above and in the middle of the umbilicus in the flexion state before and after treatment in the observation group were all greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in the distances between the rectus abdominis muscles 3 cm below the umbilicus, 3 cm above the umbilicus and in the middle of the umbilicus in the observation group at rest before and after treatment were all greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in the root mean square of the maximum autonomous iso-length contraction amplitude of the rectus abdominis muscle, the average value of type Ⅱ pelvic floor muscle fiber strength, and the maximum value of type Ⅰ pelvic floor muscle fiber strength before and after treatment in the observation group were all greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The difference in quality of life scores before and after treatment in the observation group was greater than that in the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Flexi-bar exercise training combined with vascular electrical stimulation can improve the quality of life and pelvic floor muscle fiber strength of postpartum patients with rectus abdominalis dissociation, reduce the abdominal circumference of patients, and promote the recovery of postpartum rectus abdominalis dissociation, and high-frequency ultrasound can effectively evaluate the recovery of patients with rectus abdominalis dissociation.
