1 Study of Foreign Literature Regarding the Methods of Intervention for Pregnancy Related Backache and Pelvic Pain ANDO Fukiko Abstract : Pregnancy related backache and pelvic pain are commonly seen, but there are many unclear points about their clinical significance. It has been reported in past 10 to 20 years that these symptoms should be separately classified into cases including backache coming from lumbar vertebra and pelvic pain coming from pelvis since they contain a multiple number of patient conditions and prognosis, which are different among patients. Since patient conditions for backache and pelvic pain are different, it is indicated that care approaches are different, too, but there has not been enough verification made on their effect. Yet, very little literature has examined these care approaches with the view of separating backache and pelvic pain due to different patient conditions. Despite this condition, approximately 60% of pregnant women with backache and pelvic pain undergo massage, acupuncture, relaxation, yoga, chiropractic and other complementary and alternative medicine. The author collected literature examining methods of intervention for pregnancy related backache and pelvic pain and looked at these methods separated by each type of pain to explore the measures that suit Japanese patient conditions. As a result, the author discovered that there are so many different terminologies and diagnostic methods to pregnancy related backache and pelvic pain that the intervention methods are varied and verifications and results on their effect differ. Exercise therapy is effective for backache, but it is preferable to do this wearing a pelvis belt for patients with pelvic pain. Acupuncture treatment is effective in alleviating back and pelvic pain. However, most research say the treatment with the best results correspond to each individual patient s symptoms.
