To determine the prevalence of back pain and its development over the first postpartum period, 817 women who had been followed through pregnancy were studied a minimum of 12 months after delivery. More than 67% of the women experienced back pain directly after delivery, whereas 37% said they had back pain at the follow-up examination. Most of the women who had recovered became pain-free within 6 months. Factors that correlated to persistent postpartum back pain were the presence of back pain before pregnancy, the presence of back pain during pregnancy, physically heavy work, and multipregnancy. Of these four factors, physically heavy work was found to have the strongest association with persistent back pain at 12 months.
为了确定背痛的患病率及其在产后第一个阶段的发展情况，对817名在孕期接受跟踪的女性在分娩后至少12个月进行了研究。超过67%的女性在分娩后立即出现背痛，而37%的女性表示在随访检查时有背痛。大多数已康复的女性在6个月内疼痛消失。与持续性产后背痛相关的因素有孕前背痛、孕期背痛、体力繁重的工作和多胎妊娠。在这四个因素中，发现体力繁重的工作与12个月时的持续性背痛关联最强。
