Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • static quadriceps strength

    measuring static quadriceps from sitting position at angle 60 and 90

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

  • static hamstring strength

    measuring static hamstring strength from sitting position at angle 60 and 90

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

  • dynamic quadriceps strength

    measuring dynamic quadriceps strength from sitting position by randomised free weight and Brzycki formula

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

  • dynamic hamstring strength

    measuring dynamic hamstring strength from prone position by randomised free weight and Brzycki formula

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

  • Hamstring /Quadriceps ((H/Q) ratio

    dividing static hamstring on static quadriceps strength and dynamic hamstring on dynamic quadriceps strength

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • change in neck pain

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

  • function

    Evaluation will be performed prior to the first treatment session ;as a baseline measure,and at last treatment session (after 4 weeks) as a post -treatment measure

Study Arms (2)

conventional group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients take conventional trans cutaneous electrical stimulation (tens) with a frequency of 100 Hz , a pulse duration of 60 micro seconds for 20 min. ,hot backs for 15 min,stretching exercises for hamstring ,quadriceps ,calf muscles

Other: conventional

interventional group

EXPERIMENTAL

patients take conventional tens with a frequency of 100 Hz , a pulse duration of 60 micro seconds for 20 min. ,hot backs for 15 min,stretching exercises for hamstring ,quadriceps ,calf muscles with combined kinetic chain exercises (terminal knee extension,semi squat (wall slide) ,foreword step up and down ,straight leg raise ,seated knee extension )

Other: combined kinetic chain exercises

Interventions

combined kinetic chain exercises in form of wall slide ,terminal knee extension ,forward step up and down ,side step up and down ,straight leg raise ,seated knee extension ,stretching exercises , hot back and trans cutaneous electrical stimulation,

Also known as: experimental
interventional group

stretching exercises and hot back and trans cutaneous electrical stimulation,with out combined kinetic chain exercises

Also known as: control
conventional group
