Brief Summary

Evaluation of sacroiliac joint dysfunction in young women with primary dysmenorrhoea using joint provocation and mobility tests and spinal mobility using Spinal Mouse and investigation of the relationship between primary dysmenorrhoea, sacroiliac joint dysfunction and spinal mobility.

Conditions

Primary Dysmenorrhea

Keywords

Pain; Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction; Spinal Mobility

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

• Standing Flexion Test

  While the patient leans forward with his knees extended, the physiotherapist places his hands behind the patient, just under the spina iliaca posterior superior (SIPS). If one of the SIPS is superior to the other, the test is considered positive.

  Baseline

• Sitting Flexion Test

  The physical therapist places his fingers just below the bases of the sacrum and just below the angulus inferior lateralis. If any of the SIPS goes more superior than the other, the test is considered positive.

  Baseline

• Springing Test

  The patient lies in the prone position. While the physiotherapist applies pressure to the sacrum with the hypothenar region of one hand, he tries to detect the posterior sacrum with the other hand.

  Baseline

• Gillet Test

  The patient is standing. The physiotherapist palpates the SIPS with the thumb of one hand and the sacrum with the other hand. The test is considered positive if there is no or limited postero-inferior movement of the SIPS when the patient flexes the hip-knee.

  Baseline

• Hyperextension Test

  The patient is standing. The physiotherapist palpates the SIPS with the thumb of one hand and the sacrum with the other hand. The test is considered positive if there is no or limited antero-superior movement of the SIPS when the patient hyperextends the hip.

  Baseline

• Gaenslen Test

  While the patient lies in the supine position, the physiotherapist passively hangs one of the patient's legs off the bed. In this way, maximum hip hyperextension is achieved. When the other leg is passively flexed, pain in the Sacroiliac Joint (SIJ) on the side hanging from the bed means that the test is positive.

  Baseline

• Sacroiliac Compression Test

  The patient is positioned in a side-lying position with the knees flexed at 90 degrees and the hips at 45 degrees of flexion. The physiotherapist applies a compression force from the upper iliac crest to the lower iliac crest, and pain in the SIJ means that the test is positive.

  Baseline

• Sacroiliac Distraction Test

  The patient is positioned supine. The physiotherapist creates distraction force by applying force from the SIPS in the posterior and lateral directions, with his hands crossed. Pain in SIJ means the test is positive.

  Baseline

• Posterior Friction Test

  The patient is positioned supine. By flexing the hip to 90 degrees and adducting the femur, axial pressure is applied along the femur. Pain over the ilium means the test is positive

  Baseline

• Patrick FABER Test

  While the patient is in a supine position, his heel is placed on the opposite knee. Thus, flexion, abduction and external rotation movements occur in the hip. The physiotherapist applies force through the opposite side SIPS. The test is considered positive if SIJ pain occurs.

  Baseline

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Spinal Mobility Test

  Baseline

Other Outcomes (3)

• Menstruation Symptom Scale (MSS)

  Baseline

• The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

  Baseline

• Functional and Emotional Dysmenorrhoea (Painful Menstruation) Scale (FEDS)

  Baseline
