Brief Summary:
This study compares between neurodynamic mobilization and stretching exercises in treatment of chronic dicogenic sciatica
Detailed Description:
This study was conducted at the outpatient clinics faculty of physical Therapy Kafrelsheikh University to compare between the effects of slider tensioner neurodynamic mobilization techniques and stretching exercises on pain Range of motion ROM and functional disability for patients with chronic discogenic sciatica
Design of the study
A pre-test post-test three-armed comparative study design was used for comparison between the effects of slider tensioner neurodynamic mobilization techniques and stretching exercises for patients with chronic discogenic sciatica
Selection of patients
Sample size
Using G-power software program and regarding F test study alpha level of 005 confidence interval 95 and effect size of 025 to detect small effects three groups and 6 dependent variables the total sample size will be 36 patient twelve in each group
To reach the specific sample size forty-three patients were screened regarding the inclusionexclusion criteria Thirty-six patient with unilateral chronic discogenic sciatica from both sexes male and female were recruited from the outpatient clinics faculty of physical Therapy Kafrelsheikh University Their age ranged between 21-50 years
They were randomly allocated by simple random method to avoid selection bias patients were asked to choose a card of three wrapped cards representing the three treatment groups
Group A received Slider technique only Group B received Tensioner technique only Group C received Stretching exercises of back extensors hamstrings and gastrocnemius muscles only
