Prognosis in four syndromes of pregnancy‐related pelvic pain

This study shows that pregnancy-related pelvic joint pain had an excellent postpartum prognosis (in general) in three out of four classification groups. The women with pelvic girdle syndrome (pain in all 3 pelvic joints) had a markedly worse prognosis than the women in the other three classification groups. High number of positive test and a low mobility index were identified as giving the highest relative risk for long term pain.
