Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of three exercise programs in patients with chronic low back pain Segmental stabilization superficial strengthening and stretching Groups were contrasted regarding pain functional disability and TrA muscle activation capacity The three groups of exercise improved pain and functional disabilities and the Segmental stabilization group was better in the ability to recruit TrA muscle
Detailed Description:
Objective To contrast the efficacy of three exercise programs segmental stabilization and strengthening of abdominal and trunk muscle and lumbar stretching on pain functional impairment and activation of the transversus abdominis muscle TrA in individuals with chronic low back pain
Design Forty-five patients were randomized into three groups namely Segmental stabilization group EStransversus abdominis and lumbar multifidus n15 mean age 4202 815 superficial strengthening group FSrectus abdominis oblique abdominal muscles and erector spinae muscles n15 mean age 4171641 and stretching group AL erector spinae posterior connective tissues and ischiotibials muscles n15 mean age 4153 441 Groups were contrasted regarding pain visual analogical scale and McGill pain questionnaire functional disability Oswestry disability questionnaire and TrA muscle activation capacity Pressure Biofeedback Unit PBU The program lasted 6 weeks and sessions happened twice a week with duration of 30 minutes each Analysis of variance was used for inter and intragroup comparisons Significance level was established at 5
Patients attended two weekly sessions during six weeks and were evaluated for pain visual analogue scale and McGill Pain Questionnaire functional disability Oswestry disability index and ability to contract the TrA Pressure biofeedback unit before and after the treatment The treatment program consisted of 30 minutes sessions The Anova one-way and Tukeys Post Hoc were used to compare groups The significance level adopted was 5
