About this study

Official title: Comparative Effectiveness of High Velocity Thrust and Bowen Technique in Patients of SI Joint Dysfunction With Upslipped Innominates. A Randomized Controlled Trial

Sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD) is a common musculoskeletal condition characterized by pain and impaired function in the lower back and pelvis region.

Read the detailed description

The reported prevalence of sacroiliac joint pain in cases of chronic low back and lower extremity pain is estimated to be between 10 - 27%. Manual therapy techniques, such as High-Velocity Thrust (HVT) and the Bowen Technique, have emerged as potential treatment options for SIJD. HVT involves quick, controlled movements applied to specific joints to restore normal range of motion and alleviate pain. Conversely, the Bowen Technique is a gentle, non-invasive form of bodywork that utilizes subtle rolling movements over muscles and connective tissues to promote relaxation and restore balance within the body.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High Velocity ThrustDiagnostic test

    Group A Participants assigned to the HVT will receive manual therapy sessions consisting of specific manipulative techniques targeting the sacroiliac joint and surrounding structures. participant lying on your side or on your stomach, depending on which SI joint needs to be manipulated.The physiotherapist will stabilize body to isolate the specific SI joint that needs adjustment. This may involve holding certain parts of your body in place or using props like a belt or cushion.With precise control and speed, the physiotherapist will apply a sudden thrust to the targeted SI joint. This thrust aims to mobilize the joint and restore its normal function. This procedure will perform in 3 sessions per week for 2 weeks

  • Bowen therapyOther

    participants will undergo sessions involving gentle, rolling movements over muscles, tendons, and ligaments in sacroiliac joint . participant lie comfortably on a treatment bed fully clothed, typically face down or on your side. The physiotherapist will perform a series of gentle, rolling movements with their fingers and thumbs over specific points on your body, including the lower back, hips, and buttocks. These moves are designed to stimulate the nervous system and promote relaxation and healing in the affected area.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)

    used in the management of spinal disorder. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) a patient-completed questionnaire which gives a subjective percentage score of level of function (disability) in activities of daily living in those rehabilitating from low back pain.

    Measured: 12 Months

  2. Visual Analog Scale(VAS)

    It is often used in epidemiologic and clinical research to measure the intensity or frequency of various symptoms. For example, the amount of pain that a patient feels ranges across a continuum from none to an extreme amount of pain.

    Measured: 12 months

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 8 May 2024. 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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) (time frame: 12 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 May 2024.
