About

In this study, the effect of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) exercise on urinary flow and quality of life in individuals with dysfunctional voiding was investigated. The 34 participants included in the study were randomized into two groups: the experiment in which DNS exercises were applied and the standard therapy group in which the manual application was applied. Uroflowmetry, Voiding Symptom Score (DVSS), Short Form-36 Quality of Life Assessment Short Form were applied to all participants at baseline and at week 6.

This experimental study was conducted with patients who applied to UroKlinik in Istanbul between March 2021 and June 2023 and were diagnosed with dysfunctional voiding. The 34 participants included in the study were randomized into two groups: the experiment in which DNS exercises were applied and the standard therapy group in which the manual application was applied. Voiding Symptom Score (DVSS), Short Form-36 Quality of Life Assessment Short Form and Uroflowmetry test were applied to all participants before and at week 6.
