Abstract:
ObjectiveTo summarize and evaluate the best evidence for postpartum physical activity and exercise regimens. MethodsLiteratures of postpartum sports and exercise programs were searched from JBI, UpToDate, Cochrane Library, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO), The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality(AHRQ), Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG), American Collage of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO), World Health Organization (WHO), Fitness Australia (FA), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), Web of Science, PubMed, CINAHL, Medlive, CNKI, and Wanfang Data, from database inception to October, 2021. Two researchers independently evaluated the literature quality according to the tool of the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Instrument (AGREE Ⅱ), A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR), and Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist. ResultsA total of 15 articles were selected, including four randomized controlled trials, four systematic reviews, one cross-sectional study, one evidence summary, four guidelines, and one expert consensus. A total of 28 pieces of evidence were summarized, including the significance of postpartum physical activity and exercise, obstacle factors, assessment, exercise style, intensity and timing, and precautions. ConclusionKnowledge of exercise after delivery is important to promote women's health and quality of life. It is recommended that the evidence be screened on a case-by-case basis and that an individualized programme of physical activity and exercise be developed.
