入选标准

  • Pregnant women (primigravida and multigravida; no age limits) from 20-35 weeks of gestation attending Cork University Maternity Hospital (CUMH) low risk antenatal clinics who are referred to the physiotherapy department by their health care provider or following self referral with back pain or pelvic pain will be assessed for inclusion in the trial. Women referred to the physiotherapy department with symptoms of pelvic girdle pain (PGP) will be assessed on presentation by a one of six departmental physiotherapists specializing in women's health.
  • To make the diagnosis of PGP the following tests will be performed as per the European Guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of Pelvic Girdle Pain and a pain history taken as detailed.
  • Sacroiliac joint assessment:
  • 1. Posterior pelvic pain provocation test (P4)
  • 2. Gaenslen's test
  • 3. Compression of anterior superior iliac spines (ASIS)
  • 4. Distraction Sacro-Iliac Joint (SIJ) pain provocation test
  • 5. Assessment of Sulci depth in lumbar spine in neutral and extension
  • Functional pelvic test:
  • 6. Active straight leg raise test (ASLR)
  • Pain history (according to the criteria of Ostgaard):
  • 7. It is recommended that a pain history be taken with specific attention paid to pain patterns and irritability of PGP
  • 8. There must be no nerve root syndrome
  • 9. The severity of pain must be related to motion
  • The diagnosis of PGP will be made if the patient has two or more of criteria 1-4 (Laslett's criteria) in combination with a negative McKenzie and negative neurological examination. Criteria 5-9 will be performed and assessed to try and improve diagnostic sensitivity and specificity as well as help exclude other pathologies that may cause pelvic and back pain.

  • 2. Women who volunteered a history of sexual abuse at any point of the study
  • 3. Women who do not speak English fluently
  • 4. Women with non viable pregnancies
  • 5. Women who have already received treatment for PGP outside of this trial
  • 6. Pregnant women who present who will not be booking at CUMH for their pregnancy or are not resident in the South West of Ireland
