Resumen
Objetivo: Comprender qué estrategias de fisioterapia para la salud pélvica pueden emplearse en el entorno doméstico para mujeres en el período postoperatorio de histerectomía por cáncer de cuello uterino. Métodos: Esta es una revisión integradora realizada en marzo de 2026 en las bases de datos PubMed, PEDro y SciELO. Los criterios de selección fueron artículos en portugués, inglés y español, de los últimos diez años, con una población objetivo mayor de 18 años. Se excluyeron las intervenciones de fisioterapia que requerían equipo profesional o asistencia continua. Resultados: Se encontraron 1155 estudios en total, de los cuales solo 5 artículos fueron elegibles para el estudio. Los enfoques más descritos fueron el entrenamiento de los músculos del suelo pélvico, la educación sobre salud pélvica a través de folletos y clases, y los ejercicios de respiración. Consideraciones finales: Se ha constatado que las estrategias de fisioterapia domiciliaria más frecuentemente utilizadas tienen efectos positivos en la función sexual y la autoestima, el alivio de los síntomas y el control de las vías urinarias, la mejora de la fuerza de los músculos del suelo pélvico y la calidad de vida. Además, contribuyen a minimizar los efectos secundarios sintomáticos del tratamiento oncológico.
