Clinical Trial Summary

This project was a Randomized clinical trial conducted COMPARATIVE STUDY OF POST ISOMETRIC RELAXATION AND MULLIGAN BENT LEG RAISE ON HAMSTRING TIGHTNESS IN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

Clinical Trial Description

Non Probability Convenient sampling was done. Patients following eligibility criteria from high schools located in vicinity of Jhang district were considered. Sample size was calculated with Epitool calculator. 28 Participants were randomly allocated in two groups equally via convenient sampling method. Baseline assessment was done initially. Group A was given post isometric relaxation and Group B was given mulligan bent leg raise Duration of research was almost 6 months. All 28 involved subjects were given 12 treatment sessions over a six-week period, which consisted of 02 treatment sessions per week . Then tightness of hamstrings was assessed by AKET, SLR and FTF test. The baseline outcome measures consisted of pain assessment using Numeric rating scale (NPRS), knee joint goniometry in active knee extension test (AKET) and straight leg raise (SLR), modified finger to floor test (FTF) to assess the flexibility of hamstring muscles. .
