Filter by:The aim of this study is to find and compare the effects of passive translatoric intervertebral glides and manual segmental traction in patients with mechanical low back pain on pain ,range of motion and disability. Randomized controlled trial done at Aziz Bhatti Shaheed teaching hospital Gujrat. Total 34 participants will be enrolled (17 in each group A and group B. Group A received PA glides while group B received manual traction 25-65 years participants were included in study. Study duration was of 3 months .Sampling technique applied was purposive non probability sampling technique. Tools used in the study are (NPRS),Modified Oswestry disability index. Data was analyzed through SPSS 22.
Among all disabling musculoskeletal condition, non specific low back pain is most prevalent and universal condition. Its prevalence has increased over years and affects almost all at some phase in their life. Though, there are many causes of low back pain such as, sedentary life style, depression, poor nutritionist diet and so on, yet faulty posture is also one of the noteworthy causes of low back pain which cannot be overlooked. Faulty posture can result from any out of order body component, such as atypical foot biomechanics. Since lower limb is connected in a closed chain, atypical foot biomechanics leads to disruption in the whole chain ascending up to the spine, stressing spine soft tissues, upsetting its normal anatomical position and causing low back pain.
Low back pain is a common neuro-musculo-skeletal problem affecting 40% of world's population at some point in their life and causes significant disability with loss of productive working hours. Low back pain is usually non-specific or mechanical and its mechanical origin is identified by the presence or absence of signs and symptoms i-e local or radicular pain, tenderness, spasm associated with different postures or movements. This study aims to compare the therapeutic effects of shockwave therapy and Maitland lumbar mobilizations on pain, disability and range of motion in patients having mechanical low back pain. Current study will be randomized clinical trial in which convenience sampling technique will be used. Sample size will be 26. Subjects with age group of 25 to 45 years and who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in this study and they will be randomly allocated into two groups. Group A will be given shockwave therapy treatment, while the group B will be given Maitland lumbar PA glide mobilizations. Each groups will also receive the conventional physical therapy treatment that includes lumbar stretching exercises and core strengthening exercises. Both the therapeutic techniques will be conducted for 4 weeks, two sessions per week for each group. Before, after two weeks and after four weeks of the treatment sessions, effects of treatment will be noted and quantitative data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 25.
investigate the effect of shock wave therapy versus mechanical traction on mechanical low back pain.
Low back pain is one the leading cause of disability and affecting many individuals. Chronic low back pain is associated with restriction in daily physical activities that ultimately leads to disuse atrophy of muscles. The objective of the study is to find out the effects of Back Muscles Endurance Training on pain, disability, endurance and Lumbar flexibility in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain.
Low back pain (LBP) is an extremely common problem that most people experience at some point in their life. It is the leading cause of activity limitation and work absence throughout much of the world. In India, occurrence of LBP is also alarming. Nearly 60% of the population has significant back pain at some time in their life. In Brazil, spinal pain (cervical, thoracic and lumbar) was considered the second most prevalent complaint, affecting approximately 13.5% of the population. It is estimated that globally 39% of the population will have at least one episode of back pain throughout their lives. In episodes of pain greater than 12 weeks (classified as chronic lower back pain), the prognosis is unfavorable and is highly associated with high treatment costs and work absenteeism. Non-specific low back pain" [NSLBP] is defined as, low back pain that is not attributable to a recognizable or known specific pathology - bone disorder in the spine [fracture], radicular nerve compression, slipped intervertebral disk, stenosis in lumbar spine, inflammatory disorder of spine [ankylosing spondylitis], cauda equine syndrome, congenital back disorder, infection in the spine [discitis], tumour in lumbar area, osteoporosis, meningitis, Cancer, HIV, autoimmune disorder [RA].
The main objective of the study is to determine effects of latissimus dorsi stretching on functional disability related to chronic low back pain
Low back pain that does not have any known specific pathology i.e.: tumor, any infection, fracture, osteoporosis, structural deformity, radicular syndrome, inflammatory disorder or cauda equine syndrome) is referred as non-specific low back pain.Over worldwide low back pain is a major public health challenge. Low back pain prevalence is shown to be 84% while 23% of chronic low back pain. Disability due to low back pain is about 11 to 12%. Low back pain is a leading cause of increasing economic burden in respect to huge medical expenses. Statistical analysis of indirect and direct expenses for the low back pain treatment in U.S shows over $100 billion per year.Many risk factors for low back pain has been identified including degeneration of lumbar discs, over weight/obesity, sedentary life style and mechanical factors i.e. occupational sitting, manual handling and assisting patients, awkward postures, lifting and carrying weights. Exercise therapy is suggested as an effective treatment in improving function of the back muscles and relieving pain in patients with Low back pain. Many studies suggested that muscle vibration is effective as the vibration signals are delivered via an external stimulator that is exposed to the part of the body resulting in pain relief and reducing muscle spasm. Vibratory stimuli have practical uses in rehabilitation and in exercise performance. Increasing reflexive activity through the stimulation of muscle spindles results in tonic vibratory reflex. The mechanical and electrical responses of the muscle could vary with the frequency of the vibration to the muscle. LMV effects are localized to the point where the stimulation is given and this is the result of neurogenic potentiation through the tonic vibratory reflex from the stimulation of muscle spindles. In our study we will work with 120hz frequency to improve the flexibility and perceived stiffness.
This study is a 12-week open-label, prospective, observational study to assess how subjects with chronic mechanical back pain respond to cannabidiol (CBD)
The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between hamstring length and gluteus maximus strength with and without normalization in patients with mechanical low back pain
