About this study

Lumbopelvic pain (LPP) is a common condition encountered during pregnancy. During pregnancy, 50% of women experience LPP. This study was planned to show the relationship between psychosocial factors affecting the perception of pain such as pregnancy-related psychosocial factors, pregnancy-related distress, catastrophization and pain self-efficacy and physical activity level in pregnant women with lumbopelvic pain. This study was conducted using the questionnaires.

Read the detailed description

In pregnant women with lumbopelvic pain, physical activity during pregnancy has many positive effects on both maternal and infant health. Therefore, it is necessary to know the factors affecting physical activity during pregnancy and make arrangements regarding these factors. This study was planned to reveal the relationship between pregnancy-related psychosocial factors, pregnancy-related distress, catastrophizing, and pain self-efficacy, which affect pain perception, and physical activity level in pregnant women with lumbopelvic pain. The study was conducted with 60 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria. This study was conducted using the questionnaires prepared in the electronic environment and sent to the participants. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the psychosocial factors affecting pain perception and physical activity levels in pregnant women with LPP.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Antenatal Psychosocial Health Assessment Scale (ALPHA)

    ALPHA was used to evaluate the psychosocial states of pregnant women participating in the study. The ALPHA was created by Yıldız in 2011 to assess the psychosocial health states of pregnant women.

    Measured: 20 munites

  2. Tilburg Pregnancy Distress Scale (TPDS)

    TPDS, was used to determine the distress states of pregnant women. The TPDS is used to assess distress developing during pregnancy. The TPDS, which was created by Pop et al. in 2011, consists of 16 items in total.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  3. Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)

    PCS, was used to determine ehe level of pain catastrophizing in pregnant women. It was developed by Sullivan et al. in 1995 to assess the exaggerated and negative mental response of individuals during the pain experience, in other words, their levels of catastrophizing. The PCS is comprised of 13 items, including the feelings and opinions of individuals about their last pain experience.

    Measured: 10 munites

  4. The Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ)

    PSEQ applied to the participating pregnant women was created by M.K. Nicholas in 1989 to assess the confidence of individuals, who experienced pain, in carrying out activities despite pain. It consists of 10 items.

    Measured: 5 munites

  5. The Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire (PPAQ)

    PPAQ was used to reveal the physical activity levels of pregnant women. With this questionnaire, the intensity, frequency, and duration of physical activity are evaluated in pregnant women. It consists of 32 items that assess housework/caregiving activities, professional activities, sports/exercise activities, transportation activities, and inactivity.

    Measured: 20 minutes
