DIASTASIS

What is DIASTASIS RECTI ABDOMINIS (DRA)?

Anatomical Considerations

 

  • DRA occurs due to hormonal elastic changes of the connective tissue and the mechanical stresses placed on the abdominal wall and displacement of abdominal organs

  • Widening of this distance can modify capability to transfer force across the midline of the abdomen
