Brief summary (from the registry)
This Delphi study aims to establish expert consensus on the role, content, and delivery of pain science education (PSE) for labour and postpartum pain management. Despite the growing application of PSE in other populations, its use in maternity care remains underexplored. Through a three-round electronic Delphi survey, multidisciplinary experts-including physiotherapists, midwives, gynaecologists, pain specialists, nurses, and psychologists-will contribute their perspectives to guide the development of a structured PSE intervention for future clinical testing.
