3 Systematic review of treatment efficacy of PFPT 57 Conclusion The findings of this systematic review suggest that PFPT can be beneficial in patients with PFH. Further high-quality RCTs should be undertaken to confirm the effectiveness of PFPT in the treatment of PFH. 1An update on the terminology by the International Continence Society was conducted and published in 2021 after this systematic review. ‘Hypertonicity’ is changed into ‘increased pelvic floor muscle tone’ and is further used in this thesis.
