Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group 1: Pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain
This group will consist of pregnant women diagnosed with pelvic girdle pain.
Evaluation of pain
The severity of pelvic girdle pain will be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Application of pelvic girdle diagnostic tests
Pelvic girdle pain diagnostic tests will be applied.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of thoracolumbar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the thoracolumbar fascia will be measured in the prone position and measurements will be taken from three different points
Evaluation of activity limitation
Pelvic Girdle Questionnaire will be filled
Group 2: Pregnant women without pelvic girdle pain
This group will consist of pregnant women who do not have pelvic girdle pain.
Evaluation of pain
The severity of pelvic girdle pain will be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Application of pelvic girdle diagnostic tests
Pelvic girdle pain diagnostic tests will be applied.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of thoracolumbar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the thoracolumbar fascia will be measured in the prone position and measurements will be taken from three different points
Evaluation of activity limitation
Pelvic Girdle Questionnaire will be filled
Group 3: Non-pregnant women
This group will consist of non-pregnant women.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of thoracolumbar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the thoracolumbar fascia will be measured in the prone position and measurements will be taken from three different points
