Comparative Effects of Clamshells and Frog Pump Exercises

Iliotibial Band Syndrome Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparative Effects of Clamshells and Frog Pump Exercises on Gluteus Medius Strengthening and Lower Extremity Function in Runners With Iliotibial Band Syndrome

Clinical Trial Summary

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.

Clinical Trial Description

This study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Pakistan Sports Board Lahore. Non-probability convenient sampling will be used to collect the data. Sample size of 32 subjects with age group between 18-30 years (males) will be taken. Data will be collected from the runners with tight ITB, by using tools LEFS, HOS-SS, and Hand held dynamometer. An informed consent will be taken. A total of 26 subjects will be selected by following inclusion and exclusion criteria and will equally divided in to two groups by random number generator table. Both the Groups will continue the conventional training with Group A will receive clamshell Exercise, and Group B will receive frog pump exercise in their respective training programs. Outcome measures will be measured at baseline and after 2 weeks. Data analysis will be done by SPSS version 25. ;
