Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of low level laser therapy with and without proprioceptive stimulation on somatosensation, pain and gait parameters in patients with discogenic lumbar radiculopathy. The randomized central trial will recruit patients according to convenience sampling into two intervention groups randomly. One group will receive low level laser therapy and proprioceptive stimulation and other group will receive low level laser therapy alone. Heating packs will be given to both groups.

Intervention

Other:
Low level laser therapy with proprioceptive stimulation
10 minutes of low level laser therapy and 10-15 minutes of proprioceptive stimulation and 10 minutes of heating pack. Assessment and data collection will be done at baseline (initial), after 4 weeks of treatment protocol and patients will be followed up for the further 2 weeks to notice and report any change in condition and health status.

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Nottingham Sensory Assessment Multimodal sensory examination includes test of tactile sensation, kinesthesia and stereognosis. 6 weeks
Primary NPRS It is a common pain screening tool use to assess the severity of pain at moment time. It is '0-10' scale where '0' means 'no pain' and '10' means 'worst pain imaginable'. 6 weeks
Primary Step length The distance measured in centimeters between the point of initial contact of one foot and the point of initial contact of the opposite foot is referred to as the step length. 6 weeks
Primary Stride Length The distance covered in centimeters with two consecutive steps, one with each foot. 6 weeks
Primary Walking Cadence Number of steps taken by an individual in one minute 6 weeks
Secondary 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) This is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. Distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used to compare changes in performance capacity. 6 weeks
