Brief Summary

Non-Specific Low Back Pain (NSLBP), which constitutes approximately 90-95% of low back pain, is low back pain that cannot be defined by specific pathologies such as infection, tumor, osteoporosis, fracture, radicular symptoms or inflammatory diseases. NSLBP creates many health problems due to uncertainties in both its diagnosis and treatment. Due to the health problems and decreased functional activities of the individual, it creates a socioeconomic burden on both the individual and the country. NSLBP ranks 6th in the distribution of the economic burden caused by diseases to developed and developing societies. It is difficult to calculate how much burden it puts on the country's economy both directly (health institutions) and indirectly (loss of working days). However, in 1996 in the United States (USA), the economic burden of NSLBP patients is estimated to be between 18.5 and 28.2 million.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Functional Movement Screening (FMS) (Functional Movement Patterns)

  FMS will be used to evaluate the quality of 7 functional movement patterns with the goal of identifying movement limitations and asymmetries. The FMS consists of 7 individual test items including the deep squat, in-line lunge, hurdle step, shoulder flexibility, push-up, straight leg raise, and rotary trunk stability assessment. Each of these 7 test items is graded on a scale of 0-3; thus, the lowest and highest possible overall FMS scores are 0 and 21, respectively.

  1 day

• Spinal Mobility

  Spinal mobility will be measured with a computer-assisted portable electromechanical device (the Spinal Mouse System, Idiag, Fejraltorf, Switzerland). Measurements will be made with the participant's back naked. Spinous processes between C7 and S3 of the individual will be marked before spinal mouse measurement is made. The C7 spinous process is located between the two rounds of the spinal mouse. It will go down to the S3 vertebra with a speed of 6.7 cm/sec, which measures without disturbing the patient's position. Then, the same measurements will be made between the C7 spinous process and the S3 spinous process while the person is in the position of maximum flexion, extension and right-left lateral flexion.

Due to the difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment of NSLBP, it has been causing many problems such as limitation of activation, socioeconomic burden, and biopsychosocial factors for years. It is thought that the effectiveness of treatment will increase if the needs and problems of individuals with NSLBP are clearly revealed beforehand. Although there are studies on core endurance and physical capacities in individuals with NSLBP in the literature, the number of studies examining functional movement analysis and spinal mobility in individuals with NSLBP is very few. Therefore, aim of this research is to compare functional movement analysis, physical capacity, core endurance, and spinal mobility in individuals with and without NSLBP. With the results we will reveal, we aim to contribute to the evaluation and treatment of patients with NSLBP. Thus, the negative effects of this pathology, which causes serious labor and financial losses, can be minimized.
