Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of the study is to determine effects of latissimus dorsi stretching on functional disability related to chronic low back pain

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A single-blinded,randomized clinical trial will be conducted in /multiple rehabilitation centers of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, after taking approval from ERB/IRB respective centers. The study duration will be 3 months. the study participants will be having mechanical low back pain.

The intervention will be included latissmus dorsi stretching along with spinal stabilization exercises in one group and in comparative group spinal stabilization exercises alone. Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) will be used to measure the disability related to the chronic low back pain.

Spinal Stabilization Exercises (SSE)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Spinal Stabilization Exercises (SSE)

Intervention Type OTHER

Spinal stabilization exercises (SSE) including bridging, planks and tummy tuck-in will be performed. Each participant received a total 7 session thrice a week sessions in two weeks, . Each session had lasted for 30-40 minutes. Spinal stabilization exercises were repeated 5-15 times depending on the endurance of patients.

Home exercise plan will also be given e.g. postural care, precautions in lifting and carrying weights etc.

Spinal Stabilization Exercises (SSE) & Latissimus Dorsi Stretching (LDS)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Spinal Stabilization Exercises (SSE) & Latissimus Dorsi Stretching (LDS)

Intervention Type OTHER

In experimental group in addition SSE group interventions, participants will receive the latissimus dorsi stretching (LDS). Each participant received a total 7 session thrice a week sessions in two weeks. Each session had lasted for 30-40 minutes. each stretch of latissimus dorsi was of 20-30 seconds with 10-20 repetitions in each session.
