A Narrative Review of a Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA) with Ginger, Elizabeth Trausch, Stacie Razzino, Stefanie Foster, Janet Drake and Paige Raffo.

Assisting in a literature review regarding diastasis recti abdominus care was a rewarding experience. We each took a topic and pulled all the literature that we could ascertain. After we reviewed the literature it was then presented to the group for review. This was my first opportunity to participate in a potential publication and I found it to be very gratifying. Not for lack of effort, however our application for publication was denied by the section on women's health. On the flipside, our work was presented at combine sections meeting as a poster presentation by Libby. I was very thankful and proud to be a part of it. Our process was clear, and the group worked well together. I do not believe there were any weaknesses. The strength of the group was exceptional. Ginger and Libby were the champions of getting our project finalized. Our work revealed the need for multidisciplinary research, further research and awareness of diastasis recti abdominus.
