Brief Summary

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

this study will be conducted to determine the impact of postural balance changes on low back pain during pregnancy

Detailed Description

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

Back pain is a major problem in the general population, and it is thought to be even more common in pregnant women who have given birth. It has been hypothesized that this type of pregnancy-related low back pain (LBP) may be related to changes in lumbar posture, perhaps accompanied by stretching abdominal muscles or specific hormonal effects of pregnancy .During pregnancy, many hormonal, anatomical, and musculoskeletal changes occur. These changes alter the postural balance and increase the risk of falls. Falls during pregnancy can cause maternal and foetal injuries. Moreover, the incidence of falls during pregnancy is higher compared to non-pregnant women of the same age. The risk of falls increases with the gestational age, and most falls are experienced in the third trimester. so, this study will be designed to conduct new information about the relation between postural changes and low back pain during pregnancy

primigravida women

This group will include 20 primigravida pregnant woman with low back pain. They will undergo balance and low back pain assessment (at 2 different time points: one at their second trimester (22-24) weeks and the other one in their third trimester (34th) week

No interventions assigned to this group

Multigravida women
