Overview
This study will be conducted to investigate any significant effect of pneumatic compression on diaphragmatic excursion in patients with low back dysfunction .
Detailed description
The prevalence of the musculoskeletal manifestations is high (76.4%) in the hemodialysis population .Pain is the most frequently reported symptom (44.9%). Seven studies (28%) reported back pain With a prevalence ranging from 14.29%-52%. In hemodialysis patients, Low back pain (LBP) can be attributed to sedentary lifestyle ،low physical performance, muscular weakness ،psychological factors, altered metabolic activity of the bones and joints, and rare causes such as tumor, spinal infection, and osteoporotic fractures.
Diaphragm is an important component of spine lumbar stability. In presence of low back pain ،there may be some alterations in this muscle like other muscles that are responsible for lumbar stabilization. Respiratory muscle training (RMT) has been proven to reduce pain intensity and improve respiratory muscle strength, physical function, balance, and consequently، the overall quality of life in several population groups.
Pneumatic compression device had a significant improvement in pulmonary functions and inspiratory muscle training. And pneumatic compression can be considered as an effective component for pulmonary rehabilitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary lung disease. patients. Up to investigated knowledge, No previous studies conducted to explore the effect of pneumatic compression versus Inspiratory muscle training on diaphragmatic function in patients with low back dysfunction .
Interventions
- Device Pneumatic compression device
Training program in the form of resisted inspiratory exercises using pneumatic compression device with abdominal sleeve on the top portion of the abdominal cavity beneath the xiphoid process. The patient used a pursed-lip breathing method to exhale after inhaling slowly through the nose such that the stomach slid out against the abdominal sleeve of the device. For 12 weeks, three times per week, the workout consisted of 10 sets with 4-5 breaths in each set and a rest period of 2-3 minutes. - Device Inspiratory muscle Trainer
the subject underwent training in the form of six sets of five deep breaths against the trainer, with 1-2 minutes of rest in between sessions. Depending on their rate of perceived exertion, the patient determined the maximum training load at which they could effectively perform 10 breaths at maximum resistance. A load equivalent to 30% of the patient's maximum inspiratory effort was used to begin the training .This unique load gradually increased as the inspiratory muscle got stronger. At the co
