NCT04954703

Brief Summary

This Study Will Be Conducted to Evaluate the Effects Of myofascial release of IT band with or without muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus and tensor fascia Lata with iliotibial band syndrome. Data Will Be Collected from Haider memorial hospital in Vehari. Study will include 24 patients of both genders with pain on lateral side of pain confirmed by positive ober test. Treatment group patient will receive myofascial release and muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus \& tensor fascia Lata muscle to relieve pain of IT band syndrome while control group will only receive myofascial release treatment. All 24 patients will be stable during the study period. Study will be conducted based on 06 month time period after approval of synopsis. Patients will be studied and fill out questionnaire. All possible patients with iliotibial tract syndrome will be taken using consecutive sampling. Informed consent will be taken from all recruited patients. The results of this study will help to manage the pain of iliotibial tract \& will be a randomized controlled trial

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Numerical pain rating scale

    It is a subjective measure in which individuals rate their pain on an eleven-point numerical scale. The scale is composed of 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst imaginable pain).

    3 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • lower extremity functional scale

    3 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata

EXPERIMENTAL

INTERVENTIONAL GROUP (muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata)

Other: Muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata

Myofascial release of iliotibial band

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

CONTROL GROUP(Myofascial release of iliotibial band)

Other: Myofascial release of iliotibial band syndrome

Interventions

it is used for lengthening of hypertonic muscles for relief of pain and range of motion.Position of patient is supine lying and therapist is at side of table .The patient leg is fully adducted to stretch IT band and then patient attempts to abduct the leg against resistance contracting the muscles being stretched at approximately 25% of maximum effort for 10 seconds. They then relax and the therapist lengthen it.

Muscle energy technique of gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata

Myofascial release of IT band Syndrome. Therapist fingers track up and down your ITB with fingertips to find the most tender spots and use a tennis ball to apply small, circular, light release in those places.
