Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The population of the study is all female students who have been studying since 2018-2019 academic year. The population of the study is all female students who have been studying since 2018-2019 academic year.
The sample size of the study will be composed of female students who have the complaint of dysmenorrhea as a result of the pre-test and who agree to participate in the study.
The power analysis was used to determine the number of cases that required pelvic floor exercise and control groups for the study. In the study of Gamit et al., It was accepted that the mean pain decreased from 6.10 (1 ± 35) to 4.6 with a 1.5 decrease. Considering the data losses to be experienced during the study, 30 female patients were planned to be included in each group (Potur and Kömürcü 2014).
Working Group: Before randomization, Dismenorrhea Diagnosis Form will be applied to women students who agree to participate in the study according to the sample selection criteria and general information about the study will be given and their general consent will be obtained for participation in the study. In accordance with the sample size determined by power analysis, random assignment to experimental and control groups will be made. Block randomization system will be used.
Once randomization has occurred, it is not possible to blind the participants or health professionals. However, in the analysis phase of the data, the blind of the statistician and the writing of the report will be made.
Data Collection Technique and Tools Participation Criteria Form (Dysmenorrhea Diagnostic Form), Data Collection Form, Dysmenorrhea Follow-up Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Health Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (Short Form-36) (SF-36).
