ABSTRACT

PURPOSE:

We aimed to evaluate factors associated with performance-related pain among musicians with different backgrounds, comparing music students and professional musicians.

METHODS:

We performed a multicenter cross-sectional study in a stratified random sample consisting of music students (294) and professional musicians (291). The main outcome was performance-related pain (PRP), measured by the Performance-related Pain among Musicians Questionnaire (PPAM). Factors associated with the outcome were measured using PPAM, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, Modified Fatigue Impact Scale, 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale, Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, and Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 Health Survey.

RESULTS:

From the 585 musicians included (response rate of 82.4%), 322 (55.0%) reported PRP. Professional musicians presented a significantly higher lifetime prevalence of PRP (57.5%, p < 0.001); however, music students reported higher levels of fatigue, anxiety and depression, and lower quality of life. Multivariate logistic regression defined a model with 16 factors significantly associated with higher probability of PRP. Additionally, we describe 25 self-perceived factors reported by musicians as being associated with PRP.

CONCLUSION:

We present the first study thoroughly describing and assessing factors associated with PRP among musicians, using a validated tool, including musicians with different backgrounds, and distinguishing music students and professional musicians. We also explore self-perceived factors associated with PRP. The relevant insights coming from this and future studies on factors associated with PRP will contribute to developing more effective preventive programs and improving evidence-based guidance and management of musicians affected by PRP.
