Abstract

Research background. The majority of persons suffer from low back pain and prevalence of it seeks about 84%. Chronic low back pain is the second cause for people to go to their general practitioner. Many studies are done about treatment of chronic low back pain; however, complaints about back pain are increasing. Therefore we are going to find out which of the three our applied methods is the best for treating low back pain. The aim of the study was to compare the impact of different physical therapy methods on lumbopelvic stability control among people with chronic low back pain. Methods. 30 people with low back pain were participating in this study. Following factors were estimated before and after eight physical therapy sessions: intensity of pain by using the scale of numbers (SAS); lumbopelvic stability control by using “Stabilizer” pressure biofeedback unit; functional motions performance capacity by doing functional tasks. Results. Statistically significant changes were not found after the evaluation of lumbopelvic stability control under the method of Redcord sliding suspension system, elastic resistance and body weight exercises before and after physical therapy sessions. Statistically significant correlations were found between lumbopelvic stability control and pain intensity in those groups where people were training under the methods of elastic resistance and body weight exercises (p < 0.05). Statistically significant correlations were found between lumbopelvic stability control and functional motions performance capacity in those groups where people were training under the methods of Redcord sliding suspension system and body weight exercises (p < 0.05). Conclusion: statistically significant change was not found between three intervention groups after physical therapy; therefore neither of three methods applied in this study was better than the others.Keywords: chronic low back pain, lumbopelvic stability control, functional movement performance capacity, physical therapy.

Tikslas – palyginti trijų kineziterapijos metodikų poveikį asmenų, besiskundžiančių nugaros apatinės dalies skausmu, juosmens– dubens stabilumo valdymui. Buvo tiriama 30 darbingo amžiaus asmenų, besiskundžiančių nespecifiniu apatinės nugaros dalies skausmu. Įvertinus juosmens–dubens stabilumo valdymą prieš kineziterapiją ir po jos pagal Redcord laisvojo kybojimo, elastinio pasipriešinimo ir savo kūno svorio pratimų metodikas, statistiškai reikšmingo skirtumo neaptikome nė vienoje iš grupių. Tarp juosmens–dubens stabilumo valdymo ir skausmo aptikta statistiškai reikšmingų sąsajų elastinio pasipriešinimo ir savo kūno svorio pratimų metodikų grupėse (p < 0,05). Tarp juosmens–dubens stabilumo valdymo ir funkcinio pajėgumo atlikties testų nustatyta statistiškai reikšmingų sąsajų Redcord laisvojo kybojimo ir savo kūno svorio pratimų metodikų grupėse (p < 0,05). Raktažodžiai: lėtinis nugaros apatinės dalies skausmas, juosmens–dubens stabilumo valdymas, funkcinių judesių atlikties pajėgumas, kineziterapija. Tyrimo tikslas – palyginti, kaip trys kineziterapijos metodikos veikia asmenų, besiskundžiančių nugaros apatinės dalies skausmu, juosmens–dubens stabilumo valdymą.
