Effects of 12-Week Clinical Pilates Exercises on Mechanical Low Back Pain

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Clinical Trial Description

Objective: This study evaluates the effect of 12-week clinical pilates exercises on young adults with mechanical low back pain. Design: This is a randomized controlled trial. Setting: This study was conducted in a university's physiotherapy and exercise practice laboratory. Cases: A total of 63 mechanical low back pain volunteers were included. The diagnosis of mechanical low back pain was made by a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician. Exercises are performed by an experienced physiotherapist with Clinical Pilates certification. Interventions: Participants were randomly assigned to the intervention group consisting of clinical Pilates exercises for 12 weeks (n = 31) or the control group not receiving any treatment (n = 32). Leading measures: Dysfunction was evaluated with the Oswestry Dysfunction Index. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)7,9 is the most commonly used outcome-measure questionnaire for low back pain in a hospital setting. Low bak pain was evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). VAS is a tool used to help a person rate the intensity of certain sensations and feelings, such as pain. The visual analog scale for pain is a straight line with one end meaning no pain and the other end meaning the worst pain imaginable. And flexibility was evaluated with the sit and reach test test. The sit and reach test is a common measure of flexibility, and specifically measures the flexibility of the lower back and hamstring muscles. Measurements were performed at baseline and the end of the 12th week of the study. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
