About this study
Official title: Comparison of Pelvic Stabilization Exercises and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation on Pain, Disability and Functional Leg Length in Patients With Anterior Innominate Iliosacral Dysfunction.
The aim of the study is to compare the effects of pelvic stabilization exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on pain, disability and functional leg length in patients with anterior innominate iliosacral dysfunction.
Read the detailed description
Illiosacral Dysfunction is accompanied by an abnormal movement of the ilium in relation to the sacrum, most commonly classified as either anterior or posterior innominate dysfunction. One of the unrecognized causes of low back and pelvic pain, as well as source of pain to proximal lower extremity is sacroiliac joint (SIJ) which arises from L5, S1 and in particular if there was an associated groin pain. There is a strong consensus on the effects of stabilization exercises in patients with chronic LBP, also some evidence for its benefits in patients with SJD. The aim of the study is to compare the effects of pelvic stabilization exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on pain, disability and functional leg length in patients with anterior innominate rotation dysfunction.
A total of 26 patients with Anterior innominate iliosacral dysfunction will be included in the study. Ethical approval will be taken from ethical committee of Riphah Internatinal University Lahore. Non-probability convenience sampling technique will be used to divide participants into group. Sample size is twenty-six. After taking informed consent and maintaining the confidentiality of individual participant, both groups will be treated with baseline treatment via the application of Hot pack. Group A will be treated with Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and Group B will be treated with Pelvic Stabilization Exercises for eight weeks. Outcome measuring tools for pain (Numeric Pain Rating Scale), Functional Disability (Modified Oswestry low back pain disability Questionnaire) and Functional Leg length (Tape Method) will be noted pre, 4th week and post treatment. Data will be Analyzed by SPSS version 29. Descriptive statistics will be used for demographics. The normality of the data will be assessed by Shapiro-Wilk test. If the data is normally distributed parametric test i.e., T-Test will be used for inter group difference while Paired Sample T-Test will be used for intra group pre and post treatment difference. If the data is not normally distributed a nonparametric test i.e., Mann-Whitney test will be used.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitationOther
Group A (Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation.) will be treated with Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, before applying exercise, Hot pack will be applied for 15 minutes. (8 weeks, 4 sessions per week) The patients will be positioned in supine lying and then contract relax will be performed on affected side of pelvis first in D1 pattern (anterior elevation and posterior depression) 3 times with 10 sec contractions and 5 sec relaxations in 1 set. Then in D2 pattern (posterior elevation and anterior depression) 3 times with 10 sec contractions and 5 sec relaxations in 1 set. 3 set of each diagonal pattern to be performed in 1 treatment session alternatively. Treatment will be given for a period of 4 days a week for 8 weeks
Pelvic stabilization exercisesOther
Group B (Pelvic stabilization exercises) will be treated with Pelvic Stabilization Exercise, before applying exercise we will apply Hot pack for 15minutes (8 weeks, 3 sessions per week).
All participants will receive training programs for the eight levels of training from static to dynamic conditions. The practiced therapy method will first be taught by a physical therapist with a verbal explanation and visual aids (such as photographs) in each group. The therapist will supervise all stages of the exercise therapy to ensure the patients correctly performed the exercises. The supervised exercise intervention will be conducted 3 days a week for 8 weeks.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Numeric Pain Rating Scale NPRS
Change from baseline the NPRS is a self-reporting or clinician-administered measuring tool that has extreme values ranging from "no pain" to "severe pain", on either horizontal or vertical line of scale. Numeric Rating Scale (NRS-11), which is an eleven-point scale in which the end points are the extremes of no pain at all (score of 0) and the worst pain the patient has ever experienced (score of 10).
Measured: 8 week
Modified Oswestry low back pain disability Questionnaire
Change from baseline this questionnaire has been designed to give information as to how back pain has affected the ability to manage in everyday life. It consists of total of 10 questions which are scored as follow:
This scale consists of 10 items in the form of activities of daily living with each item scoring from 0 to 5 where 0 is no difficulty in performing that activity and 5 inability to do that activity.
Measured: 8 week
Measurement of Functional Leg length: (Tape Method):
Change from baseline the true leg length measurement or spinomalleolar distance (acceptable validity and reliability [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC3,3) range 0.98 - 0.99] in measuring LLD) was used to assess the leg length of the subjects. A measuring tape will then use to measure from the apex of anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) to the distal end of the medial malleolus in each leg and recorded in millimeter (mm). The following is the classification of the level of LLD: mild (< 30 mm), moderate (30 - 60 mm) and severe (> 60 mm).
Measured: 8 week

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and Pelvic stabilization exercises in people with Anterior Innominate Iliosacral Dysfunction, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Imran Amjad, PHD (03324390125, imran.amjad@riphah.edu.pk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Numeric Pain Rating Scale NPRS (time frame: 8 week). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
