Most physiotherapists were located in Victoria, WA and NSW, had post-graduate qualifications, worked in private practice and had more than 2 years’ experience treating women with an ICLB (Table 2).
Physiotherapists’ definition of ICLB
Physiotherapists (n = 63) provided a variety of definitions for ICLB. The themes and supporting quotes are summarised in Table 3. The main subthemes identified included local breast clinical symptoms, combination of local and systemic clinical symptoms, pathophysiology/cause, discrete breast conditions, and altered breast function (Additional file 2). Theme 1: The clinical definition of ICLB varies among physiotherapists. Subtheme 1.1: The definition of ICLB was based on the presence of local...
Physiotherapists’ diagnosis of ICLB

The main subthemes identified included local clinical symptoms and local and systemic clinical symptoms (Table 3). For these subthemes, generated themes included type and number of symptoms (Additional file 2). Theme 2: The diagnosis of ICLB is based on the patient’s presenting symptoms but there is no consensus on t...
Regional and facility differences
There was consistency in the variety of qualitative themes identified across regions. Quantitative data only revealed a significant difference (N = 58, χ2 = 6.49, p = 0.04) between physiotherapists from different regions for whether or not blocked ducts were considered an ICLB. Physiotherapists from Victoria (n = 26; 96%) were more likely to consider that blocked ducts are an ICLB, compared to NSW (n = 10; 71%) or WA (n= 12; 71%). No other differences between regions existed for the remaining...
