Overview
this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of hip extension mobilization on lumber disability, pain and flexion range of motion in patients with spondylolisthesis
Detailed description
Spondylolisthesis is a kind of low back pain (LBP) that involves displacement of one vertebral body relative to the vertebra below it. Spondylolisthesis is derived from the Greek words spondylosis, which means vertebra, and olisthisis, which means slippage. The displacement of the cranial vertebra can be anterior (also known as anterolisthesis), lateral, or posterior (retrolisthesis) to the more caudal vertebra., most commonly occurring as an anterior slippage at the lumbosacral junction(L5-S1). The condition can result from several etiologies including congenital, isthmic, degenerative, traumatic, or pathologic causes. The clinical presentation of spondylolisthesis encompasses a broad spectrum, ranging from asymptomatic cases to those involving debilitating pain, neural compromise, and functional limitations. Degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) predominantly affects older adults, with a marked predilection for females. A cross-sectional epidemiological survey involving over 4,000 patients reported a prevalence of 2.7% in men and 8.4% in women, underscoring a significant sex disparity.The most common site for degenerative spondylolisthesis is the L5 to S1 level. Mobilization increases hip range of motion, decreases pain and improves hip function more than non-weight bearing exercises.
Interventions
- Other hip extension mobilization
the patients will receive hip extension mobilization to increase hip extension range of motion; the therapist applies an anterior glide mobilization-usually with the patient in a prone position. The patient is positioned in prone at the edge of the table. The hip is then flexed, abducted, and externally rotated into position as tolerated by the patient, and the foot is placed next to the contralateral knee. Impart anterior mobilization through the greater trochanter. The therapist applies a grad - Other conventional treatment
Each subject will be given treatment of 30-40 minute session of William flexion exercises. The seven variations of Williams's exercises include (Pelvic tilt, single knee to chest, double knee to chest, half sit-up, hamstring stretch, hip flexor stretches, and squat). in additionn, The TENS electrodes are typically placed bilaterally along the lumbar paraspinal region directly over the painful area. The frequency of the output was set at 4 to 8 Hz. Continuous type used.
Primary outcome measures
- low back disability [Time frame: up to four weeks]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- pain intensity [Time frame: up to four weeks]
- lumbar flexion range of motion [Time frame: up to four weeks]
