Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of pelvic band fixation with three-dimensional adjustment of suspended pelvis on patients with pubic symphysis diastasis under the holistic pelvic ring concept. Methods:From February, 2018 to February, 2020, 30 parturients with pubic symphysis diastasis were evaluated pelvic ring. They accepted three-dimensional adjustment of pelvis with suspension to restore the anatomical reduction of sacroiliac joint and the symphysis pubis according to the evaluation, and were fixed with pelvic band for six to eight weeks. The pubic symphysis union was monitored with color ultrasonography. They were reviewed with pelvic X-ray two weeks after removal of pelvic band, and assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before treatment, immediately after removal of the pelvic band and two weeks after removal of the pelvic band, while the pelvic ring structure was measured. Results:The scores of VAS and MBI improved two weeks after pelvic band removal compared with those before treatment, as well as distance of pubic symphysis separation, upper margin difference of pubic symphysis, width difference of iliac wings, transverse and longitudinal diameter difference of obturator foramens (t > 2.509, P < 0.05). However, the scores of VAS and MBI improved two weeks after pelvic band removal compared with those immediately after removal of the pelvic band (|t| > 2.854, P < 0.05), while the distance of pubic symphysis separation increased (t = 2.319, P < 0.05), still in the normal reference value. Conclusion:Correcting the post-partum pubic symphysis diastasis under the holistic pelvic ring concept can restore the anatomical structure of the pelvis, avoid the compensatory movement pattern, and improve the daily living in the later time.
