Brief Summary

There is a debate in the literature about the effect of NSLBP on pelvic tilt and its effect on balance, sensory integration and functional disability so we need this study to fill the aforementioned gap in literature in this field. So the purpose of the study is to evaluate posterior pelvic tilt effect on overall dynamic balance, sensory integration and functional disability in patients with non-specific low back pain.

Conditions

Biochemical Lesions Lumbar Region; Orthopedic Disorder of Spine; Back Disorder

Keywords

pelvic tilt; sensory integration; balance; back pain; biodex

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Biodex balance system Limits of stability test

  A test measures dynamic postural stability in percentage

  A test measures postural sway control to assess sensory integration.

  10 minuets

• Biodex balance system Fall risk test (FR)

  A test to assess risk of fall according to mean age

  10 minuets

• Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)

  An index to assess physical functioning in percentage.

  10 minuets

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• The Global Posture System (GPS) 600

  10 minuets

• Body Mass Index (weight in kilograms, height in meters)

  10 minuets

Study Arms (2)

Posterior pelvic tilt group

1. patients with chronic low back pain or repeated non-specific back pain for more than three months. 2. Both sex with posterior pelvic tilt (-0.7 ± 6.5°) and decreased lumbar lordosis 3. Their ages were ranged from 20-35 years 4. Body Mass Index from 18-25 Kg/m²

Other: pelvic tilt effect on balance, sensory integration and risk of fall

Normal anterior pelvic tilt group

1. patients with chronic low back pain or repeated non-specific back pain for more than three months. 2. Both sex with anterior pelvic tilt (5° and 13°) and normal lumbar lordosis 3. Their ages were ranged from 20-35 years 4. Body Mass Index from 18-25 Kg/m²

Other: pelvic tilt effect on balance, sensory integration and risk of fall

Interventions

pelvic tilt effect on balance, sensory integration and risk of fall OTHER

BIODEX balance system, Limits of stability test, Risk of Fall test, m-CTSIB test

Normal anterior pelvic tilt group; Posterior pelvic tilt group

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 20 Years - 35 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Fifty patients with chronic low back pain or repeated non-specific back pain for more than three months and referred from a physician with anterior or posterior pelvic tilt angles according to the groups.

You may qualify if:

• Fifty patients with chronic low back pain or repeated non-specific back pain for more than three months.
• Both sex with posterior pelvic tilt (-0.7 ± 6.5°)and decreased lumbar lordosis, for (Group A) and normal anterior pelvic tilt angle between 5° and 13° for (Group B)
• Their ages were ranged from 20-35 years.
• Body Mass Index from 18-25 Kg/m² .

You may not qualify if:

• Previous back surgery.
• Signs and symptoms of gross spinal instability.
• Radiological diagnosis of spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis.
• Acute low back pain.
• Disc prolapse or herniation.
• Any neurological, orthopedic, and vestibular disorders affecting the balance system.
• Flexion and extension restriction of the lumbar region.
• Other conditions that affected the normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system such as alcohol abuse, addiction, dementia, and cognitive disorders.
