Exercise and Two Different Kinesiotape Applications in Patients With Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is a randomized controlled study. 75 patients between the ages of 20-50 who were diagnosed with sacroiliac joint dysfunction will be included in the study. 25 patients will be given a home exercise program that strengthens the waist and hip girdle (to be shown once in the hospital by a physiotherapist and the form of the exercises will be given), 25 patients will be given kinesiology taping with inhibition technique with the exercise program, and 25 patients will be given kinesiology taping with fascia correction technique with the exercise program. Patients will do the exercises once a day for 1 month. In kinesiology taping with the inhibition method, an I-shaped tape of 15-20 cm in length will be applied on the sacroiliac joint on both sides without stretching the ends with 50% stretching in the middle. In addition, a 25-30 cm long I band will be applied over the right spina iliaca posterior superior, towards the left spina iliaca posterior superior. In the facia correction technique, 2 bands with no cut ends, a 10-15 cm web-shaped band divided into 4 or 5 parts with a width of 1-15 cm will be applied cross over the sacroiliac joint, without stretching the ends with 50% stretching in the middle.
Gillet test (evaluation of sacroiliac joint movement with single hip flexion), Gaenslen test (pain provocation with passive hip flexion), Patrick test (provocation of pain with hip flexion, abduction and external rotation), standing flexion test (evaluation of sacroiliac joint movement with forward flexion), sacroiliac compression and distraction test (provocation of pain with anterior pelvic compression or distraction), long sitting test (pain in the sacroiliac joint after sitting for more than 30 minutes), posterior shear test (provocation of pain with hip flexion and adduction) will be applied to the patients. The patients' resting and moving pain levels will be measured using the Visuel Analog Scale (VAS). Pain duration in the last week will be questioned and noted. Global Assessment of the Patient's Self within the last 1 week will be made over VAS. Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) will be applied to determine the level of disability. Evaluations will be made before, 15 days after and 1 month after treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pain levels at Visuel Analog Scale [1 month]
The patients' resting and moving pain levels will be measured using the Visuel Analog Scale. Patients will be asked to mark their pain levels on a visual analog scale of 0-10 cm. Higher values indicate more pain.
- Pain duration in the last week [1 week]
Pain duration in the last week
- Global Assessment of the Patient's self at Visuel Analog Scale [1 week]
Global Assessment of the Patient's Self within the last 1 week will be made over Visuel Analog Scale. Patients will be asked to mark their global assessment on a 0-10 cm visual analog scale. Higher values indicate better result.
- Oswestry Disability Index [1 month]
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) will be applied to determine the level of disability. It is a scale consisting of 10 questions, each scored between 0 and 5 points. The minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 50. Higher results indicate worse functional status.
