Brief Summary:
Role of Thoracolumbar Fascia Stretching on Pain Parameters with Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain
Detailed Description:
These findings demonstrate the significant impact of chronic pain on connective tissue health and highlight the importance of addressing this issue in the management of CLBP
Chronic pain contributes to the persistence of chronic local connective tissue inflammation resulting in fibrosis connective tissue adhesions and decreased mobility of the thoracolumbar fascia TLF in patients with chronic low back pain CLBP
Furthermore an increase in TLF thickness possibly due to structural changes in the connective tissue is associated with pain severity
Stretching the fascia is a crucial aspect of manual and movement therapies The results of this study provide evidence for the effectiveness of TLF stretching in reducing pain and improving pain sensitivity in CLBP patients
The language used was clear objective and value-neutral avoiding biased emotional figurative or ornamental language
This study aimed to investigate the effect of TLF stretching on pain characteristics including pain intensity pressure pain threshold PPT temporal summation pain sensitivity and the impact of pain on activity in CLBP patients
The study design was a randomized controlled trial and cross-sectional study
Passive tone and impersonal construction were employed and first-person perspectives were avoided unless necessary High-level standard language with consistent technical terms was used and common sentence structure was adhered to
The study was conducted from November 2023 to January 2024 and involved 30 participants with nonspecific chronic low back pain aged 20-60 years who were randomly assigned to either the study group n15 7 men 8 women or the control group n15 7 men 8 women
The study group received a 4-week TLF fascial stretching exercise 10 times per day in addition to the conventional physiotherapy program while the control group only received the conventional physiotherapy program The study measured pain intensity using a 10-point numerical rating scale NRS pressure pain threshold PPT and temporal summation by an algometer from TLF levels of lumbar 1 and 3 vertebrae L1 L3 and 12th costa as primary outcomes Secondary outcomes comprised pain sensitivity assessed by the Pain Sensitivity Scale PSS and the effects of pain on activity measured by the Brief Pain Inventory BPI
