Study type | Interventional |
The relevance of this study is given by the feasibility to assess the effect of an intervention program based on the postural control and trunk neuromuscular activity, comparing two methods: stabilization exercises vs. back strengthening exercises, in athletes with low back pain. The main outcomes will be computed by electromyography measurement so that to assess the trunk neuromuscular activation pattern as well as by force platform parameters for determining of postural control. Clinical symptoms such as pain intensity, perception of disability and fear and avoidance will also be computed. This is the first study to compare two intervention methods using the main biological outcomes related to trunk neuromuscular function.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | Visual Analogic Scale | Pain measurement using Short Version of Pain Questionnaire McGill (score 0 to 78; while higher score is determined by poor condition related to pain) and Visual Analogue Scale for pain intensity (score of 0 to 10 intensity; being 10 of poor score for VAS). | Change from baseline muscular activation at 8 weeks | |
Other | Disability questionnaire | Disability measurement using Oswestry questionnaire. | Change from baseline muscular activation at 8 weeks | |
Other | Fear-avoidance questionnaire | Fear-avoidance model measurement using Waddel questionnaire related to work and physical activity. | Change from baseline muscular activation at 8 weeks | |
Primary | Eletromyography measurement | EMG estimates, Root Mean Square: RMS (in microvolts unit: uV) and Median Frequency: MF (in Hertz: Hz) will be computed to evaluate the back activation during strength maximal protocol and endurance dynamic test. | Change from baseline muscular activation at 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Force platform measurement | Force platform measurement during balance performance using centre of pressure measures to assess balance performance. | Change from baseline muscular activation at 8 weeks |
