Lumbar Spine Disc Herniation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Lumbar Segmental Stabilization and TENS in Lumbar Disc Herniation: a Randomized Clinical Trial
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of method Lumbar Segmental Stabilization and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on pain, functional disability and ability to activate the transversus abdominis (TrA) of individuals with chronic back pain caused by disc herniation.
Objective: To contrast the efficacy efficacy of method Lumbar Segmental Stabilization and
TENS on pain, functional capacity and ability to activate the TrA of individuals with
chronic back pain caused by disc herniation.
Design: Sixty patients are being randomized into two groups namely: Lumbar Segmental
Stabilization (LS ) (specific exercises for the muscles transversus abdominis and lumbar
multifidus) (n = 30) and TENS group (TG) (n = 30) receiving assistance under a current of
transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). Groups were contrasted regarding pain
(visual analogical scale and McGill pain questionnaire), functional disability (Oswestry
disability questionnaire) and TrA muscle activation capacity (Pressure Biofeedback Unit =
PBU). The program lasts for 8 weeks, and sessions happen twice a week, with duration of one
hour each. Evaluations will be performed before, after and with a follow-up six months after
treatment. Significance level is established at 5%.
