Brief Summary

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

Sacroiliac pain is a huge problem in women during pregnancy and postpartum period. Muscle energy technique has potential effect in decreasing the pain and disability

Detailed Description

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

A sample of forty women diagnosed with postpartum sacroiliac dysfunction, their ages ranged from 20 to 40 years and their BMI was ranged from 25-30 kg / m2 participated in this study, they were selected and divided randomly into 2 equal groups (A\&B). Group (A) (Control group): consisted of 20 patients, they received muscle energy technique for 12 sessions, 3 sessions / week. Group (B) (Study group): consisted of 20 patients, they received alternative heat and ice for another 20 minutes /session (10 minutes for each). All patients in both group were evaluated at the beginning of the study and after 12 sessions through measuring pain intensity using visual analog scale and disability using oswestry disability index (ODI)

Outcome Assessors
An independent individual randomly appointed to all participants to either group (A) (n=20) or group (B) (n=20) by numbers that were picked from the closed envelopes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

muscle energy technique

muscle energy technique was performed in the form of post-isometric relaxation technique for iliopsoas, hamstrings, and erector spinae and quadratus lumborum muscles, it was done 3 times per session for 12 sessions.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

muscle energy technique

Intervention Type OTHER

MET was performed in the form of post-isometric relaxation technique for iliopsoas, hamstrings, and erector spinae and quadratus lumborum muscles. the limb was taken very slightly beyond the restriction barrier and was held there for 10-30 seconds, it was done 3 times per session for 12 sessions.

ice and heat packs

Alternating ice and heat (20 min , 10 heat,10 cold),3times per week for 12sessions.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

ice and heat packs

Intervention Type OTHER

Applying 20 minutes: 10 minutes hot,10 minutes cold on sacroiliac area, 3 times per week for 12 sessions
