Clinical Trial Summary

We wiil evaluate the efficiency of adding kinesio taping (KT) therapy to dry needling (DN) therapy on pain, functionality and depression parameters in 60 patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain (nCLBP).

Description:

A total of 60 patients will be included in the study. 30 patients will be in the treatment group and 30 patients will be in the control group. Both groups will be underwent 3 sessions with 1-week intervals on active myofascial trigger points in lumbar multifidus, quadratus lumborum and gluteus medius muscles in DN therapy. KT application will be performed after every DN session in the study group. Pain will evaluate with visual analog scale, functionality was evaluated with Oswestry Disability Index and the status of depression will be evaluated with Beck Depression Index before the treatment and at the first month.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Pain pressure threshold	Amount of pressure (Kg/cm2) applied at the lomber multifidus muscle, quadratus lumborum and gluteus medius muscle myofascial trigger point site that elicit pain for the patient will be reported	3 week
Primary	Pain by visual analog scale (VAS)	Visual analog scale (VAS,0-10) will be used to assess resting, activity and night pain.	3 week
Primary	Oswestry disability Index (ODI)	Changes from the Baseline, ODI is an effective tool to provide information on the extent of backache affecting the patient ability to cope with tasks of everyday life. Ten sections are included in the ODI tool with a total possible score of 5 for each section. The first statement carries a score of 0, and the last has a score of 5.	3 week
Primary	Beck Depression Inventory	This is a 21-item standard assessment used to measure clinical depression. Scores on this assessment range from 0 to 63, where higher scores indicate higher levels of depression.	3 week
