Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to find and compare the effects of passive translatoric intervertebral glides and manual segmental traction in patients with mechanical low back pain on pain ,range of motion and disability. Randomized controlled trial done at Aziz Bhatti Shaheed teaching hospital Gujrat. Total 34 participants will be enrolled (17 in each group A and group B. Group A received PA glides while group B received manual traction 25-65 years participants were included in study. Study duration was of 3 months .Sampling technique applied was purposive non probability sampling technique. Tools used in the study are (NPRS),Modified Oswestry disability index. Data was analyzed through SPSS 22.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Modified Oswestry disability Index( MODI)

  MODI is a measure of disability that is a Gold standard tool for measuring functional outcome in low back pain. It is also used to discriminate between broad categories of back pain patients and it is useful to measure treatment outcomes. It is divided into ten sections that assess the level of pain and interference with physical activities such as sleeping, standing, walking, home making, social life and traveling. Each question has a possible six responses which are scored from 0 to 5. Patients check one response statement in each section that is most relevant to them. The score for each section is added and divided by the total possible score (fifty if all sections are completed), with the resulting score multiplied by a hundred to yield a percentage score with 0% equivalent to no disability and 100% equivalent to a great deal of disability.

  Changes from the Baseline, at 2nd week and at 4th week.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• NPRS 0 to 10

  Changes from the Baseline, at 2nd week and at 4th week.

Other Outcomes (1)

• The joint range of motion assessed by Goniometer

  Changes from the Baseline, at 2nd week and at 4th week.
