Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to compare the effects of pelvic stabilization exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on pain, disability and functional leg length in patients with anterior innominate iliosacral dysfunction.
Detailed Description:
Illiosacral Dysfunction is accompanied by an abnormal movement of the ilium in relation to the sacrum, most commonly classified as either anterior or posterior innominate dysfunction. One of the unrecognized causes of low back and pelvic pain, as well as source of pain to proximal lower extremity is sacroiliac joint (SIJ) which arises from L5, S1 and in particular if there was an associated groin pain. There is a strong consensus on the effects of stabilization exercises in patients with chronic LBP, also some evidence for its benefits in patients with SJD. The aim of the study is to compare the effects of pelvic stabilization exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on pain, disability and functional leg length in patients with anterior innominate rotation dysfunction.
A total of 26 patients with Anterior innominate iliosacral dysfunction will be included in the study. Ethical approval will be taken from ethical committee of Riphah Internatinal University Lahore. Non-probability convenience sampling technique will be used to divide participants into group. Sample size is twenty-six. After taking informed consent and maintaining the confidentiality of individual participant, both groups will be treated with baseline treatment via the application of Hot pack. Group A will be treated with Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and Group B will be treated with Pelvic Stabilization Exercises for eight weeks. Outcome measuring tools for pain (Numeric Pain Rating Scale), Functional Disability (Modified Oswestry low back pain disability Questionnaire) and Functional Leg length (Tape Method) will be noted pre, 4th week and post treatment. Data will be Analyzed by SPSS version 29. Descriptive statistics will be used for demographics. The normality of the data will be assessed by Shapiro-Wilk test. If the data is normally distributed parametric test i.e., T-Test will be used for inter group difference while Paired Sample T-Test will be used for intra group pre and post treatment difference. If the data is not normally distributed a nonparametric test i.e., Mann-Whitney test will be used.
