NCT ID: NCT06089005 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Home-based Treatment Using the Sidekick Tool for Pain Relief in Patients With Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Start date: October 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to test how well the Sidekick Tool works as a home-based pain relief for iliotibial band syndrome using instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization tool in healthy participants aged 18-65 years old. We hypothesize that the use of the tool over the course of seven days and by following a home-treatment plan will result in less pain that is caused by iliotibial band syndrome for the participants. Pain intensity will be measured using a Numerical Pain Rating Scale from 0-to-10. Other measurements will include pain intensity after exercise and if participants return to their sport. Participants will be asked to complete an online questionnaire to ensure they are a good fit for the study. Once they have been entered into the study, they will complete a video call with the researchers to go gather their current pain intensity levels. Participants will be emailed the instructions for how to use the tool for seven days and will be mailed the Sidekick Tool to their home. After seven days of using the tool, the participants will be asked to complete a final video call to gather their pain intensity levels. This number will be compared to their initial pain intensity to see if their pain has lowered while using the tool.

NCT ID: NCT05973708 Completed - Clinical trials for Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Comparative Effects of Clamshells and Frog Pump Exercises

Start date: October 5, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Iliotibial band syndrome is where a tendon called iliotibial band gets irritated or swollen from rubbing against hip or knee when it gets too tensed. Iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome (ITBS) is the most common cause of lateral knee pain among athletes who are involved in sports that require continuous running or repetitive knee flexion and extension. The incidence ranges from 1.6% to 12% in runners. The aim of the study is to compare the effects of clamshells and frog pump exercises on gluteus medius strengthening and lower extremity function in runners with iliotibial band syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT05915754 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Effects of Posterior Oblique Sling Strengthening Exercises on Pain & Flexibility Among Runners With

ITBS
Start date: November 23, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The popularity of recreational running and rate of running related injuries are increasing. Research has shown that iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is one of the most common knee injuries among runners alongside plantar fasciitis, meniscal injuries, patellar tendinopathy, and patelleofemoral pain (PFP). ITBS is twice as common in female runners as compared to male long distance runners due to biomechanical variations. Literature supports the use of gluteal strengthening and IT band stretching as an effective treatment for iliotibial band syndrome. Posterior oblique sling is activated during running and its weakness is thought to be the predisposing factor of iliotibial band syndrome among long distance runners. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of posterior oblique sling exercises in decreasing lateral knee pain and improving flexibility of iliotibial band among female runner compared to gluteal strengthening and IT band stretching alone. Data will be collected by using non-probability purposive sampling method. Sample size will be 26. 13 Female runners with average running of 15 kilometers per week and chronic iliotibial band syndrome will be employed in two different study groups A and B randomly. Both groups will get treatment for four weeks four times per week. Control group A will get conventional treatment of hip abductors strengthening and Iliotibial band stretching and Experimental group B will get posterior oblique sling strengthening exercises plus conventional hip abductors strengthening and IT band stretching. Pain and flexibility will be measured before treatment after every week and by the end of the month to note progression. Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) will be used to rate pain and modified Ober's test using digital inclinometer will be used to rate flexibility of iliotibial band. Statistical analysis will be done using SPSS latest version

NCT ID: NCT05459623 Completed - Clinical trials for Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Effects of Myofascial Release With and Without EMMETT Technique in Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Start date: September 15, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The iliotibial (IT) tract or band is a lateral thickening of the fascia lata that is composed of the distal fusion of the muscular fascia of the gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata muscles. The iliotibial tract travels along the lateral side of the thigh and across the knee joint, inserting on the lateral epicondyle of the tibia. A tight IT band has been diagnosed in several problems related to the knee including patellofemoral syndrome and iliotibial band syndrome. Several authors have suggested that tightness in the IT band may contribute to patellofemoral syndrome and knee pain by pulling the patella laterally thereby causing abnormal tracking of the patella in the trochlear groove. Stretching of the iliotibial band is frequently recommended in treatment programs for patients with LBP. Because the iliotibial band attaches to the ilium, tightness of this muscle is thought to cause anterior innominate rotation and lateral pelvic tilt. The Ober test is performed to assess tightness in the iliotibial band. The term myofascial release encompasses various techniques used to release fascial restrictions. Many forms of bodywork that includes a soft tissue technique exist with Bowen therapy, Emmett technique, deep tissue massage, neuromuscular techniques (NMT), Muscle Energy Techniques (MET) and foam rolling. This study focusses on effects of myofascial release with Emmett technique. This study will be conducted in a clinical set up (Saba's physical therapy, rehabilitation and sports injury clinic in Gulberg 3) and will take 6 months. Study will be conducted on 22 subjects involving 11 subjects in each group. Group A will be given myofascial release only and group B will be given myofascial release with Emmett technique. Total duration of study will be three weeks and assessment will be done before treatment and after every week. Numeric pain rating scale, goniometer and vertical jump test are used for assessing pain, flexibility and power respectively.

NCT ID: NCT05427110 Completed - Clinical trials for Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Shearwave Elastography in the Evaluation of Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Start date: May 5, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is a condition frequently treated in physiotherapy. The pathophysiology underlying this syndrome is still poorly understood. Ultrasound makes it possible to evaluate the morphology and to quantify, with sonoelastography (SWE), the stiffness of the iliotibial band (ITB). The objective is to determine the feasibility of a cross-sectional study aimed at evaluating the morphometry and stiffness of the ITB in runners with and without a diagnosis of ITBS. Socio-demographic and clinical data will be collected and ultrasound measurements (thickness and stiffness) of the iliotibial band will be performed in supine with the knee positioned at 2 different angles (0° and 30° flexion). Variables such as the recruitment rate/month, the inclusion/exclusion rate, the acceptability of the procedure will be used to characterize the feasibility. The relationship between ultrasound measurements and clinical outcomes will be explored. The results obtained will document feasibility issues and provide preliminary results will lay the groundwork for a large scale study.
