1. PREVALENCE, CONTRIBUTING RISK
FACTORS AND IMPACT ON QUALITY
OF LIFE OF BREASTFEEDING
POSITION RELATED
MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN (BPRMSP)
IN POSTPARTUM WOMEN
Amy
Wagner, PT, D
PT, GCS
5. BACKGROUND
Breastfeeding recommended by
AAP and WHO for 6 months or
more: 4.5 million bir ths, 80%
mothers attempt breastfeeding
in US.
Many barrier s exist to reaching
these goals.
Musculoskeletal pain may be
associated with reduced ability
to achieve the duration of this
activity, but little is known
Other occupations have been
examined for ergonomic barrier s
to par ticipation
Gaps in the literature to examine
demographic risk factors, and
positions of mother and baby
that are associated with
increased incidence of BPRMSP.
6. PURPOSE
This proposed work will
use mixed methods, and
have two distinct phases:
survey (quantitative) and
interviews (qualitative).
Nonexperimental/primarily
observational to gain
awareness and
understanding of the
problem of BPRMSP
This work will fill a gap in
the literature in order to
examine the problem of
musculoskeletal pain
associated with the
occupation of
breastfeeding.
7. HYPOTHESES
The survey instrument
to assess BPRMSP will
have good reliability
and validity:
face validity and content
validity
good (> 0.95) test-retest
reliability.
Less strenuous
positions such as
sidelying and “laid
back” will be associated
with statistically
significant lower pain
ratings
8. RESEARCH QUESTIONS
What is the point prevalence of Breastfeeding Position Related
Musculoskeletal Pain (BPRMSP) in Postpartum Mothers?
What are the risk factors for BPRMSP? What role does prior
history of musculoskeletal pain, lifting of the child or wearing
them in a sling play in the pain? How has this BRMSP played
role in attitudes towards breastfeeding and willingness to
continue? What role does the lactation consultant or ergonomic
aids play in mitigating the ef fects of BRMSP?
What is the impact on quality of life of BPRMSP on
breastfeeding mothers and is it a perceived barrier to continued
breastfeeding in the early postpartum period? How has this
BRMSP played role in attitudes towards breastfeeding and
willingness to continue?

12. STUDY DESCRIPTION: SUBJECTS
INCLUSION CRITERIA: 18 to 49 year old women who gave birth
past 6 months, and are breastfeeding
EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Women who have had musculoskeletal
surgery or injury in the past 6 months, or have stopped
breastfeeding
RECRUITMENT: physician and midwife offices at postpartum visit.
San Antonio, Austin, and Los Angeles to gain a wide diversity of
socioeconomic and educational backgrounds.
Interview recruitment: La Leche league, Lactation consultants, BF task
forces, hospital outpatient lactation centers
Preliminary analysis states that 247 surveys will be needed for an
epidemiological survey. 500 surveys will be distributed with the goal of
at least 50% return rate.
13. INSTRUMENTS/METHODS
Questionnaire (500) to have women rate pain associated with
certain positions.
To be tested for reliability and validity (test -retest reliability and
face/content validity-review by experts) in pilot studies
Previous study (Mbada) showed agreement percentage of k = . 94 to
1.0 for questionnaire.
To be translated into Spanish.
Survey will be anonymous and single blinded; interview not blinded.
Interviews with 50 women post-partum to determine what
impact on quality of life is of BPRMSP.
This survey modified from version used by Mbada which was
tested for reliability (test -retest) and validity
Study location: 3 metro areas, and interviews in SA , Austin private of fice

20. METHODS:
The paper survey will be distributed in person to physician
(OB/GYN and pediatrician) of fices and nurse -midwife of fices in
each of 3 large metropolitan cities (San Antonio, Austin, and
Los Angeles).
Self-addressed stamped envelopes will be given for return .
Personal interviews will be conducted through recruitment via
local La Leche League Groups, breastfeeding task force
organizations, and hospital outpatient lactation centers.
Interviews will be conducted in person in a private of fice
setting in both San Antonio and Austin.
21. DATA ANALYSIS: SPSS AND NVIVO
SOFTWARE
Correlation coefficients will be determined for
test-retest reliability, agreement between
translated versions
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize
data regarding prevalence of BPRMSP.
Non-parametric tests such as chi-squared will
be used to determine associations between
BRMSP and sociodemographic variables of the
participant (age, parity, type of
birth, socioeconomic strata, education, BMI)
NVIVO will be used to code, translate, verify
and analyze qualitative data.
22. SUMMARY
This proposed work will use
mixed methods, and have two
distinct phases: sur vey
(quantitative) and inter views
(qualitative).
This work will fill a gap in the
literature in order to examine
the problem of
musculoskeletal pain
associated with the
occupation of breastfeeding.
This project may lead to
increased knowledge of
potential risk factor s and
mitigating factor s for
BPRMSP, as well as increase
knowledge to be used for
planning inter vention studies
to decrease musculoskeletal
pain in the postpar tum period.
