Abstract

This quasi-experimental research aimed to examine the effect of the information-motivation-behavioral skills enhancement program on low back pain among pregnant women. The participants were 44 pregnant women with low back pain receiving antenatal care at Nakhon Phanom Hospital and were equally divided into an experimental group (n = 22) and a control group (n = 22). The research instruments included the information-motivation-behavioral skills enhancement program, the track record form on the phone and LINE application, the personal data record form, and the visual analogue scale with a reliability of .93. The implementation and data collection were conducted from June to August 2021. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, median, interquartile range, Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, Mann-Whitney U test, paired t-test, and independent t-test.

The research results revealed that after the experiment, the experimental group had statistically significantly lower mean score of low back pain than that of before the experiment (t = 8.860, p < .001) and that of the control group (t = 12.580, p < .001).

This research suggests that nurses in the antenatal care unit should adopt the information-motivation-behavioral skills enhancement program as a guideline in providing nursing care to relieve low back pain among pregnant women.
