NCT ID: NCT06435169 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Comparative Presence of Piriformis Syndrome in Patients With Lumbar Disc Bulging and Protrusion

Start date: March 4, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Clinicians consider lumbar disc herniation more prominently in the differential diagnosis than piriformis syndrome, as it is the most common cause of sciatica, and this canalizes them to overlook that the sciatic nerve may be compressed by the piriformis muscle, below the L4-L5-S1 intervertebral disc levels. As far as is known, there are no 'patient series' in the literature regarding the incidence of Piriformis syndrome in Lumbar Disc Herniation, only one case report has been found. This clinical study aims to reveal that Piriformis syndrome may also be present in patients with disc herniation on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and that sometimes it may even be the main cause of sciatic nerve pain.

NCT ID: NCT05848063 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effects of Global Hip Versus Isolated Abductors Strengthening Exercises in Patients Withsecondary Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: March 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study will be a randomized controlled trial. Twenty-four subjects will be assigned randomly by using the lottery method into two groups. Group A will be given a hot pack in addition to the global hip muscles strengthening exercise while group B is the control group which will receive a hot pack in addition to hip abductor strengthening. The time duration will be 6 weeks. Pain intensity will be assessed by NPRS.3 sessions per week will be given for 6 weeks. Outcome measures will be taken at baseline, in 3rd week, and at the end of the 6th week.

NCT ID: NCT05742633 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Comparative Effect of Active Release Technique Versus Self-myofascial Release in Improving Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: February 3, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this Randomized controlled trial is to examine comparative effect of active release technique versus self-myofascial release in improving piriformis syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is: • To compare the effects of Active release technique (ART) and Self-Myofascial release (SMFR) on pain intensity, hip internal rotation and functional disability in patients with piriformis syndrome. Participants will be a given consent form and after subjects read and sign the informed consent, they would be included in study according to eligibility criteria. 2 groups would be included in study, Active release technique will be applied on group A by the physiotherapist and self-myofascial release will be applied on group B by the patients themselves through the use of foam-rollers and massage ball to compare the results of both these techniques on reducing pain, improving range and functional disability among individuals with piriformis syndrome. We will measure outcome through different outcome measure tools.

NCT ID: NCT05680402 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effects of Soft Tissue Mobilization Technique and Piriformis Muscle Stretching Among Patients Having Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: October 2, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

It is a randomized control trail in which soft tissue mobilization and piriformis stretching will be compared and study duration will be of five months

NCT ID: NCT05370378 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effects of Hold Relax With Agonist Contraction and Active Release Therapy on Clinical Outcomes in Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: February 22, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of hold relax agonist contraction and active release therapy on reducing pain intensity, improving functioning and sleep quality in patient with piriformis syndrome. Both these techniques are passive, non-invasive manual therapy techniques which are easy to perform and less time consuming and may yield better outcomes resulting improved quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT05271071 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

The Importance of Gluteus Maximus Muscle in Patients With Preliminary Diagnosis of Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: March 14, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Literature shows different pathologies or combination pathologies can cause gluteal region pain and it can be difficult to diagnose. Piriformis syndrome is one of the cause of gluteal region pain, symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome affected gluteus maximus muscle may masquerade as piriformis muscle syndrome or both syndrome can be seen together. The aim of this study is diagnosis myofascial pain syndrome of gluteus maximus muscle and piriformis syndrome by physical examination, special clinical tests and ultrasound guided diagnostic injection test in patients presenting with gluteal pain and evaluate the coexistence of both syndromes.

NCT ID: NCT04842656 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Soft Tissue Techniques in Piriformis Syndrome

Start date: June 30, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to compare the effects of active release technique and post isometric relaxation in patients with piriformis syndrome on pain, hip internal rotation range of motion and functional disability. A randomized clinical trial was conducted at Shifa Intl. Hospital, Islamabad. The sample size was 26 calculated through open-epi tool but were recruited 30. The participants were divided into two interventional groups each having 15 participants. The study duration was six months. Sampling technique applied was purposive sampling for recruitment and group randomization using sealed envelope method. Only 35 to 55 years participants with diagnosed piriformis syndrome were included in this study. Tools used in this study are Goniometer, Visual Analogue Scale and lower extremity functional scale. Data was collected at baseline, 3 weeks after sessions and after one month follow up. Data was analyzed through SPSS version 20.

NCT ID: NCT04684537 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effect of Ultrasound-guided Piriformis Muscle Corticosteroid Injection Versus Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Piriformis Syndrome: a Randomized Control Trial

Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study, the investigators aim to compare the effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy with ultrasound-guided piriformis coticosteroid injection in treatment of PS.

NCT ID: NCT04603703 Completed - Piriformis Syndrome Clinical Trials

Sacroiliac Joint Manipulation Effect in Chronic Piriformis Syndrome.

Start date: May 9, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the study was to determine the effects of sacroiliac joint thrust manipulation on pain, pain pressure threshold, piriformis length and straight leg raise, in chronic piriformis syndrome.

Start date: January 11, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of our study is to compare the effects of Graston and manual myofascial release technique on pain, muscle length and functional status in patients with Piriformis syndrome.
