A incontinência urinária (IU) é uma condição caracterizada pela perda involuntária de urina, um problema recorrente no puerpério e, consequentemente, gera um impacto negativo na qualidade de vida da mulher. A presente pesquisa teve por objetivo revisar na literatura quais abordagens fisioterapêuticas estão sendo utilizadas para tratamento da IUE no pós-parto. Para isso, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática de literatura, utilizando as bases de dados Pubmed, MedLine, BVS, SciELO e PEDro, tendo como base os descritores incontinência urinária, pós-parto e fisioterapia, e seus correspondentes em inglês: urinary incontinence, postpartum e physical therapy, combinados com o operador lógico AND. Após a aplicação dos critérios de elegibilidade, selecionou-se quatro (4) artigos, que apontaram que o treinamento muscular do assoalho pélvico (TMAP) é eficaz para a melhora da força e função da musculatura do local, e, portanto, mostrou-se um tratamento assertivo para a IU. Conclui-se que a fisioterapia é efetiva para o tratamento da incontinência urinária de esforço em mulheres no pós-parto, sendo recomendada a realização de novos estudos, com maior acurácia metodológica, para se comprovar o real efeito da fisioterapia.

INTRODUCTION: Urinary incontinence affects more than 50 million people worldwide, it has a great impact on quality of life by affecting social, domestic, occupational and sex life, regardless of age. Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of physical therapy treatment in women attending the Urogynecology service of Hospital and Maternity Leonor Mendes de Barros. METHOD: We retrospectively assessed 65 records of patients with diagnosis of urinary incontinence treated between November 2005 and November 2006. In order to have their data analyzed, patients were divided into two groups; group MF, which underwent medical treatment and physiotherapy, and group M, which had only medical treatment. In order to compare both groups' quantitative data, the analysis was performed in Statistica® software using Mann Whitney's non-parametric test. The analysis of association between the quantitative variables was performed through the Chi-Square test at 5% (p > 0.05) significance level. RESULTS: We observed that 60.6% of patients who underwent physical therapy treatment and medical treatment had the urinary incontinence symptoms decreased or completely cured, while 80% of women belonging to the medical treatmen only-group underwent surgery. CONCLUSION: Thus, we conclude that physical therapy is essential in treatment protocols of urinary incontinence outpatient clinics and to prevent surgery.

Results: The results showed that 65% of the women did not know about the physiotherapeutic treatment for UI, 28.33% had heard and 6.67% knew about it. The channels of knowledge selected by the volunteers who claimed to know or hear about physiotherapy in the UI were 18.18% media, 31.82% were people known, 45.45% were health professionals, and 4.55% were other unna/med forms. It was also found that women aged between 60 and 90 years have more knowledge on the subject (15%) than those aged 20 to 39 (5%) and 40 to 59 years (0%). Conclusion: It is concluded, therefore, that continents women need more information regarding physical therapy treatment for urinary incontinence. In addition, this awareness should occur in a multidisciplinary way to cover a greater number of women and information providers, in view of the search for treatment early avoid greater complications.
