View clinical trials related to Mechanical Low Back Pain.
Filter by:This study aims to investigate the impact of electromagnetic field therapy on pain severity and functional disability in mechanical back pain patients suffering from myofascial trigger points.
This study will be a randomized clinical trial. Total 44 Subjects with mechanical low back pain will be assigned randomly by using non probability convenient random sampling in to two groups with 22 subjects in each group. Subjects in one group will be treated with mat Pilates training and the other group with the functional training. NPRS, Inclinometer and urdu version of Modified Oswestry Disablility questionair would be used to measure the outcome of pain, Range of Motion and Disability respectively. After data collection from defined study setting, data will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International University lahore.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of the Muscle Energy Technique in female patients with mechanical low back pain. Methods: A total of 40 female participants aged 30-45 were randomly divided into two groups (Study Group and Control Group). Control group participants were under 10 sessions conventional physical therapy and rehabilitation (TENS, US, hot pack) and performed standard home exercises. Study Group participants were under 8 sessions muscle energy technique in addition to conventional physical therapy and standard home exercises. Pain (Visual Analog Scale-VAS), spinal mobility (Modify Schober Test-MST), flexibility (Fingertip Floor Distance-FFD, Right and Left Lateral Flexion Floor Distance-LFFD), quality of life (Nottingham Health Profile-NHP), disability (Oswestry Disability Index-ODI), kinesiofobia (Tampa Kinesiofobia Scale-TKS) and depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory-BDI) were measured at baseline, after the treatment and 3th months.
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 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.
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.
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
The main objective of the study was to compare the effectiveness of Muscle Energy Technique and Active Isolated Stretching on Erector Spinae Muscle in the management of Mechanical Low back Pain (LBP) and to find out that which technique is better for the treatment of mechanical LBP
