Study Description

Brief Summary

The SIJ has long been considered an important source of low back pain because of the empirical finding that treatment targeting the SIJ can relieve pain.This study was be a Randomized Clinical Trail conducted at Riphah Rehabilitation Centre Lahore. The study was be completed within the time duration of Six months. Purposive sampling technique was be used. Sample size is calculated by using the G power 3.1. The sample size of 64 patients was be taken in this study to find the comparison of regional manual therapy and standard physiotherapy intervention in females with sacroiliac joint pain. Patients was be divided into two groups.. Patients was be divided into two groups. Group A was be treated with regional manual therapy. In regional manual therapy patients was be given mobilization to lumber region and SIJ, pelvic floor exercises and core strengthening exercises and Group B was be treated with standard physiotherapy in which patients was be given SIJ mobilization and Straight leg raise. Both groups was receive transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator and heating pad as a common treatment protocol. Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) and oswestry low back disability questionnaire was be used as Data collecting tools. Two session of treatment per week for eight weeks was be given. Data was be analyzed on SPSS 21.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

1. NPRS [Eight week]

   The NPRS is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain.

2. Oswestry low back disability questionnaire [Eight week]

   The Oswestry Disability Index (also known as the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire) is an extremely important tool that researchers and disability evaluators use to measure a patient's permanent functional disability. The test is considered the 'gold standard' of low back functional outcome tools
