Abstract
  • For my project, I created overuse injury prevention resources for postpartum women at Indiana Health University Hospital. Brief educational sessions were conducted with the women where I reviewed the resources and answered questions. A pre and post survey that assessed the participants' knowledge and attitudes regarding overuse conditions and their prevention was created to determine the effectiveness of the resources. Upon analyzing the survey results, a positive increase was found in the mean score for each item on the pre and post surveys. This indicated increased knowledge of overuse conditions and confidence in preventing them. The participants also collectively reported that they viewed educational resources as a useful method in preventing overuse conditions in the postpartum population. Following my project, the pelvic floor rehabilitation team added these resources to their postpartum rehabilitation packet and plan to incorporate this information into their postpartum visits in the hospital.
