An interventional study of SI joint thrust manipulation and pelvic stabilization exercises in Low Back Pain, Post Partum, sponsored by Riphah International University. Recruiting at 1 site in Pakistan. Open to female participants aged 20 Years to 40 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-03-12.
Sponsored by Riphah International University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
compare the effectiveness of SI joint thrust manipulation and pelvic stabilization exercises on Modified OSWESTRY Low Back pain Index (ODI) and Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) in patients with post-partum lower back pain.
Patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be divided into 2 groups i.e. Group A and Group B. Patients in Group A will receive thrust manipulation technique and Group B will receive pelvic stabilization exercises, heating pad will be given to both groups. Patients will be treated 3 times per week for 4 consecutive weeks. Patient will be evaluated at baseline, midline and at end of 4th week. Pain, functional status and disability will be evaluated after every 3 sessions.
2,373 studies on the registry are indexed under Back Pain; 284 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 44 is below the median of 60 across 1,941 interventional studies indexed under Back Pain.

Exclusion Criteria:
The patient was supine and the therapist stood contralateral to the side which was to be manipulated. The patient was passively moved into side bending toward the side to be manipulated. The therapist passively rotated the patient, and then delivered a quick thrust to the Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS) in a posterior and inferior direction
Other: SI joint thrust manipulation
Heating pad for 10- 15 mints Pelvic stabilization exercises. Bridging (3 sets x 10 reps with 10 secs hold), Pelvic Tilt exercise (3 sets x 10 reps with 10 secs hold), Bird-Dog Exercise (3 sets x 10 reps with 10 secs hold), clamshell Exercise (3 sets x 10 reps with 10 secs hold).

experimental group given the thrust manipulation along with heating pad. 3 sessions per week will be given for 4 weeks. The pain measure by using NPRS, functional status and disability through ODI will be evaluated. after every 3 sessions.

The pain using NPRS , functional status and disability will be evaluated by using ODI after every 3 sessions.
Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS)
The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) measures the subjective intensity of pain. The NPRS is an eleven-point scale: the patient rates pain from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain).
Time frame: 4th week
Modified Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)
The ODI is a disease specific disability measure is used to establish a level of disability stage on a patient activity status and monitor change over the time. The ODI is made up of 10 questions. Each question is scored from (o-5) minimum to maximum.
Time frame: 4th week
