“…The Cronbach's alpha was 0.785 for the UI scale and 0.826 for the POP scale. The values in this study are higher than those of the Spanish study (0.72–0.64), [24] Thai study (0.72–0.64) [25] and Turkish study (0.67–0.75), [23] yet, lower than the scores presented in the original study (0.82–0.89).

“…The Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ) is a self-administered, reliable and valid instrument which assess knowledge regarding UI and POP. [22] It was developed in English and later adapted into Turkish, [23] Spanish, [24] Thai, [25] Hebrew [26] and Arabic. [27] There is no validated Hungarian version of this questionnaire; therefore the aim of this study was to translate the PIKQ into Hungarian and to develop a reliable, valid, and culturally sensitive Hungarian version of the PIKQ.…”

“…Although this cohort did include 27.5% Hispanic patients, they were all English speaking. Since this study was initiated, the PIKQ has been validated in various other languages, most notably in Spanish 18 . With such a large Spanish-speaking population in the United States, it would be invaluable to develop educational tools geared toward Spanish-speaking patients with the ability to reliably measure the effect on patients' knowledge of PFDs.…”

Importance Pregnancy and childbirth are risk factors for developing pelvic floor disorders (PFDs), and this continues postpartum (“fourth trimester”). Knowledge of PFDs among women of childbearing age is lacking and presents an opportunity for education. Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the increase in knowledge of PFDs in patients who received written handouts versus interactive workshops as measured by the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ). Study Design This was a randomized clinical trial of pregnant patients 18 years or older. Patients either received written handouts only or received handouts and attended an interactive workshop. Handouts were created in collaboration with communication specialists focusing on risk factors and prevention strategies. The primary outcome was the change in PIKQ score. Secondary outcomes were Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory score and postpartum phone interviews of workshop group participants. Questionnaires were assessed at recruitment and 6 weeks postpartum. The nonparametric Wilcoxon test compared continuous variables, and the Fisher exact test compared categorical variables. Results One hundred twenty patients were randomized. Demographics were similar between groups. Median PIKQ score change showed no difference between groups (P = 0.37). Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 scores were similar between groups at baseline (P = 0.78) and postpartum (P = 0.82). Quantile regression showed posteducation PIKQ scores were significantly higher in the workshop (21.00 vs 17.00; P = 0.011) and written (21.00 vs 17.00; P < 0.001) groups. Phone interviews showed consistent themes: (1) greater awareness of PFDs, (2) more likely to discuss PFDs, and (3) relief that PFDs are treatable. Fifty-nine percent of patients preferred learning through workshops compared with the handouts. Conclusions Both groups showed improvement in knowledge of PFDs. Well-written, illustrated handouts were effective in increasing patient knowledge of PFDs.

“…Shah et al 7,8 developed the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ), a pair of 12-item scales assessing the knowledge of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of UI and POP. Since 2008, the instrument has been translated and validated across several languages, including Turkish, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and Hebrew 9–13 . Using the PIKQ survey, Shah et al 8 discovered that White women may have greater UI knowledge compared with nonwhite women ( P = 0.02), and this difference remained consistent after controlling for education and income.…”

Importance Approximately one fourth of U.S. community-dwelling women will develop a pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) within their lifetimes. Prior research has revealed that knowledge of PFD was low to moderate in the general population and lower among Black patients. Objective This study aimed to assess the proficiency of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in self-identified African American and Afro-Caribbean adult (age ≥ 18 years) female patients seeking medical care in our ambulatory setting. Study Design In this cross-sectional study, we administered the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire to patients in primary care and gynecology ambulatory settings at an academic medical center in Central Brooklyn. We used a multivariable Poisson regression model to find characteristics of the participants that are associated with proficiency in Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire domains. Results A total of 266 survey participants self-identified as African American or Afro-Caribbean. Overall, using a multivariable model, knowledge of POP was significantly higher among African Americans than Afro-Caribbeans, and 75.5% of our patients reported that they would seek information on urinary incontinence and POP from a medical provider (gynecologist or primary care doctor) compared with other alternatives (eg, internet, 19.6%). Conclusions These findings highlight subgroups that could benefit from provider-initiated education regarding PFD. Furthermore, although Black patients are often homogenized in research studies, differences may exist within subgroups likely because of varying interplays of structural racism and other social determinants of health, which may serve as an area of future research.
