Clinical Trial Summary

The sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD) which has a widely heterogeneous etiology, may cause impairment of stability, mobility, posture and flexibility as well as pain due to adaptive or pathological biomechanical changes. In 2020, the number of patients with low back pain (LBP) worldwide was more than half a billion and is expected to exceed 800 million by 2050. Although SIJD has been shown to be related with LBP in more than 30% of patients with LBP, SIJD is still often overlooked as a cause of LBP. Once the diagnosis of SIJD is confirmed by physical examination, the first treatment option consists of the use of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug or physiotherapy approaches. The proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is a neurophysiological model-based multifaceted exercise method which is widely used in rehabilitation practice. However, despite the major role of SIJD among the causes of LBP, there are limited studies investigating the efficacy of PNF in SIJD and its effectiveness remains unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pelvic PNF techniques on pain, mobility, flexibility, lumbar range of motion, posture, and trunk muscle endurance in patients with SIJD.
