NCT04930523

Brief Summary

The study will be conducted to determine the effects of spinal decompression with and without ELDOA in patients of lumbar disc protrusion. A total of twenty patient with lumber disc protrusion will be taken after fulfilling the inclusion criteria. the patient will be divided in experimental group i.e. ELDOA along with decompression and control group. Both session got pre and post session along with general low back exs.home plan along with precautions was guided to every patient of control and experimental group.NPRS ,ODI is assess in first and fourth session. The data will be analyzed through IBM SPSS version 21.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Numeric pain rating scale

    It is numeric pain rating scale for measuring pain intensity. it ranges from 0-10.In which 0 shows no pain,1-3 (mild pain),4-6(moderate pain) and 10 shows severe pain. As guided by the researcher, pain intensity was marked by the patient

    4th weeks

  • Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)

    Oswestry disability index is important tool in spinal disorders patients. Disability is measured by questioner related to activities of daily living. This tool is use for every type of patient acute or chronic with severe spinal disability. Each question contain 6 items from 0 to 5 i.e. no pain, mild , moderate, severe, very severe, worst.0 to 20 is minimal disability,21 to 40 is moderate,41 to 60 is severe,61 to 80 is crippled and 81 to 100 bed bound patient

    4th weeks

  • Inclinometer

    Inclinometer is an instrument to measure range of motion or angle of motion of spine. Two inclinometer is use to measure dynamic motion of spine. There is motion on both ends of spine .in order to find true angle One inclinometer is on upper spine and other is on lower spine and value of lower spine is subtracted from upper spine. The flexion,, extension and side bending towards the right and left will be checked.

Study Arms (2)

Decompression

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

It include the pre- Physiotherapy treatment than decompression and post physiotherapy treatment.

Other: Decompression

Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL

It includes the Pre physiotherapy treatment than ELDOA positions are guided and performed by patients before decompression Low back exercises guided i.e. knee to chest, pelvic rolling, bridging, SLR, piriformis exercises is guided for home plan along with precaution and Decoarctation of (C0/C1/C2),(C4/C5),(C5,C6),(C6/C7),(T4/T5),(T6/T7),(T8,/T9),(L4/L5),(L5/S1) then Neuro-oxy motorized lumbar spinal decompression therapy for 25 minutes and at last Post physiotherapy treatment

Other: Elongation Longitudinaux Avec Decoaption Osteo Articulaire

Interventions

Pre physiotherapy treatment Gym (treadmill ,cycling,vibrator) according to ability and condition of patient Shortwave diathermy SWD for atleast 10 mins Decompression treatment i.e. Neuro-oxy motorized lumbar spinal decompression therapy for 25 minutes. Post physiotherapy treatment Conventional Tens and infrared heat for 10 minutes at low back region. TENS is modality to reduce pain and tension,by stimulating large diameter afferent fiber .IR give superficial heat for circulation and relaxation of muscles. No exercises or walk were guided for home (till 24 hrs) Low back exs guided i.e knee to chest, pelvic rolling, bridging, SLR, pirformis exs is guided for home plan along with precautions. No exertion ,drive carefully Avoid stairs climbing ,twisting ,bending ,weight lifting

Experimental

Pre physiotherapy treatment Gym (treadmill ,cycling, vibrator) according to ability and condition of patient Shortwave diathermy SWD for at least 10 minutes. ELDOA positions are guided and performed by patients before decompression Low back exercises guided i.e. knee to chest, pelvic rolling, bridging, SLR, piriformis exercises is guided for home plan along with precautions. Decoarctation of (C0/C1/C2),(C4/C5),(C5,C6),(C6/C7),(T4/T5),(T6/T7),(T8,/T9),(L4/L5),(L5/S1) Neuro-oxy motorized lumbar spinal decompression therapy for 25 minutes. Post physiotherapy treatment Tens and infrared heat for 10 minutes at low back region. TENS is modality to reduce pain and tension, by stimulating large diameter afferent fiber .IR give superficial heat for circulation and relaxation of muscles. ELDOA exercises(positions)are guided for home plan after session (after 24 hrs) No exertion ,drive carefully Avoid stairs climbing, twisting bending, weight lifting
