Mucosal versus muscle pain sensitivity in provoked vestibulodynia Witzeman K, Nguyen R, Eanes A, Sawsan S, Zolnoun, D. Journal of Pain Research 2015:8 549-555
Pelvic PT distance journal
club
Aim: To
understand and compare the relative contribution of mucosal versus muscle pain
sensitivity with intercourse as reported from women with provoked vestibulodynia (PVD).
Background:
Estimated that 8.3%-16% of women experience
vulvovaginal discomfort in their lifetime and for many, it’s provoked
on contact, commonly referred to as provoked vestibulodynia (PVD).
Little is known about the
etiologies: PFM dysfunction and mucosal components, Or how abnormalities in muscle
form or function may impact pain during intercourse.
And, more information is
needed on the relationship of mucosal sensitivity to PFM
contracture/hypertonicity and potential pain and vice versa.

The
following text in black is the exact text in the document. Red comments added for discussion. This is only a portion of the entire
document. The recording starts with a discussion of the taxonomy at the beginning
of the document and the question of what nociceptive, inflammatory and
neuropathic types of pain are only listed under visceral pain and not also
listed under somatic pain. The group
also discussed the confusion of the terms "centrally generated pain",
"hypersensitivity", and "central sensitization".

Summary: This article is a review of
pathophysiologic mechanisms that may explain IBS food related symptoms (sx) and
evaluates clinical trials of specialized diets used to treat IBS sx.
Premise: Food can cause GI distress due to
stimulation of mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors (ie capsaicin) or
alterations in GI transit, intestinal osmolarity and secretion. IBS patients
report more food related issues than healthy controls
What causes food
symptoms? :
Food Allergies
1. IgE mediated = Rapid onset, ie nuts, wheat,
shellfish, strawberries.
Sx of nausea, dysphagia, abdominal pain, vomiting,
diarrhea (urticaria)
2. Non IgE -mediated : cell mediated response (T
helper 2 cells), delayed onset, IgG antibodies are more prevalent with IBS pts.
Sx= GI only.
Food Intolerances
Non- immunologic events, (non-celiac gluten sensitivity,
presence of chemicals in foods, histamine, enzyme defects, short chain
carbohydrates.)
70% of IBS patients report symptoms representative of
food intolerances.

Jane Franczak
Purpose
To investigate the effectiveness of Visceral Osteopathy for IBS
Definitions
IBS: Association between abdominal pain and or abdominal
distention and bowel dysfunction for recurrent periods. Rome III criterion
recurrent abdominal pain or distention lasting at least 3 days/month over 3
months with 2 or more of these: 1. Improves with defecation
2. Onset assoc. with change in stool frequency
3. Onset assoc with change in form of stool
32 Consecutive refractory IBS patients study: failed to
improve after variety of drug therapies or high health care usage despite
aggressive treatment and unhappy about care.
Osteopathy: manual treatment that relies on various mobilization
procedures aimed at relieving patient’s pain. Visceral mobilization was provided by an osteopath. Friday, August 12, 2016

August 3, 2016
Pelvic Physical Therapy Distance Journal Club
Description: This
study tested the hypothesis that social constraints (the perception that those
close to a patient can inhibit, discourage or dissuade a person from disclosing
one’s feelings or talking about one’s problems) would be associated with
distress, pain and problems with functioning, beyond the influence of the
widely recognized risk factor of pain catastrophizing.
Pain catastrophizing is the tendency to magnify pain, feel
helpless and ruminate on one’s pain and it has been established as a reliable
correlate of chronic pain in a variety of patient populations per previous
research. In women with IC and bladder
pain syndrome, pain catastrophizing has been linked to greater depression,
poorer general mental health, poorer quality of life and more severe pain.
No previous studies have examined how social constraints are
associated with pain and adjustment in patients with pelvic and urogenital
pain.
Mindfulness-based stress reduction as a novel treatment for interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome: a randomized controlled trial. (Kanter et al. Int Urogynecol J. 2016 Apr 26).
August 3, 2016
Pelvic Physical Therapy Distance Journal Club
Description: Research
shows that up to 11% of women are affected by IC/BPS and the disorder may be
significantly underdiagnosed; up to 43% of patients with IC/BPS require
multimodal therapy. The underlying
pathophysiology of IC/BPS is poorly understood.
In IC/BPS, increased stress is positively correlated with increased pain
and up to 80% of IC/BPS patients noted in a previous survey that stress
reduction decreased their symptoms.
Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is a complementary
alternative medicine-based therapist and is a standardized program including
components of meditations and yoga. MBSR
has been successfully employed to treatment chronic pain syndromes and has been
used in disorders such as multiple chemical sensitivity, chronic fatigue
syndrome, fibromyalgia, various pelvic floor disorders and IBS as well as
urinary urgency.

Association Between Pelvic Floor Muscle Trauma and Pelvic Organ Prolapse 20 Years After Delivery
Clinical
Question
Since it is known that pelvic
floor trauma (PFMT) is associated with prolapse (POP) and symptoms of prolapse
(sPOP) and POP-Q>2 in patient populations, the aim was to establish
prevalence and possible associations between PFMT, sPOP, and POP > 2
in healthy women twenty years after their first delivery.

Lecture: New ISM Perspectives for Treating Women with PGP, UI, POP, and DRA
By Diane Lee
It is well known that the abdominal wall and pelvic floor play key roles in function of the trunk and that pregnancy and delivery can have a significant, and long lasting, impact. Non-optimal strategies for the transference of loads through the trunk can create pain in a multitude of areas as well as affect the urinary continence mechanism and support of the pelvic organs. The Integrated Systems Model will be highlighted in part one of this lecture to demonstrate its use for determining when to treat the thorax, when to treat the pelvis and when to train the various muscles of the deep system (i.e. transversus abdominis and/or pelvic floor) for the restoration of form and function after pregnancy (how to Find the Primary Driver).
Widening of the linea alba and separation of the recti, known as diastasis rectus abominis (DRA), may prevent restoration of both the appearance and the function of the trunk and women with this condition often ask whether surgery will help them. Currently, there are no guidelines for clinicians to know which patients with DRA are appropriate for conservative treatment and which ones will also require surgery. Part two of this lecture will highlight Diane’s research that led to clinical tests that reveal who can be treated conservatively and who will require a surgical intervention.
