Study type | Interventional |
Lumbar degenerative disc disease and discogenic low back pain is comparatively common and disabling musculoskeletal condition, however there is no conclusive evidence regarding the positive effects of conservative physical therapy management in terms of radiological changes and improvement in disc height. For this reason, the current study will not only look into the positive effects of conservative physical therapy on postural stability, pain and function, but also in terms of disc height in persons with discogenic low back pain.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Back Pain | Pain will be measured via Visual Analogue Scale. A higher score signifies poor outcome. | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Lumbar Range of Motion | Lumbar Range of Motion will be measured via inclinometer. A higher score signifies good outcome. | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Postural Stability | Postural Stability will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A higher score signifies poor outcome. | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Lumbar Disability | Disability will be measured via Oswestry Disability Index. | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Step length | Step length during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis. A greater step length signifies better outcome | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Stride length | Stride length during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis. A greater stride length signifies better outcome | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Gait velocity | Velocity during gait will be analyzed using observational gait analysis. A greater gait velocity signifies better outcome | 2 weeks | |
Primary | Disc Height | Disc will be analyzed using Magnetic Resonance Imaging | 2 weeks |
