简要总结
Gluteal amnesia is a "condition" where the individual is believed to have lost the ability to contract their gluteal muscles - generally the gluteus maximus, though some report it as the gluteus medius. This can take many different names, such as "dead butt", "sleeping glutes", or glutes that are "turned off".Since the gluteus medius normally helps stabilize the pelvis, gluteal amnesia can lead to lower back pain and hip pain, as well as knee and ankle issues, as the body tries to compensate for the imbalance.
详细描述
A Randomized controlled trial will be conducted at Jinnah Hospital Physiotherapy Clinic & Boston Physiotherapy and wellness Clinic through consecutive sampling technique on 32 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A & group B. Group A will be treated with clamshell exercises at the frequency of 3 sets with 10 repetitions 3 times/ week with baseline treatment. Group B will be treated with gluteal bridge and baseline treatment. Baseline treatment for both groups will be given Hot pack at low back for 10 minutes and Quadriceps and hamstring stretching 3 times with 30 seconds hold. Outcome measures will be conducted through pain, disability and quality of life questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed during SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro -Wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.

研究组 & 干预措施
Group A: Clamshell Exercise
Group A will be treated with baseline treatment and clamshell exercises. Lie on your side with your knees slightly bent and with one leg on top of the other. Keep your feet together and lift your top knee until its parallel with your hip. Lower your knee back to the initial position, repeat, and then switch sides. In 1st week 1 sets 10 repetitions. In 2nd week 2 sets of 10 repetitions. In 3rd and 4th week and onwards 3 sets of 10 repetitions.
干预措施: clamshell exercise (Other)
Group B: Gluteal Bridge exercise
Group B will be treated with baseline treatment and Gluteal Bridge exercises. Start flat on your back with your legs bent at a 90-degree angle and feet placed flat on the ground. Make sure your toes are turned outward at 45-degree angles and your knees are facing in the same direction as your toes. Drive down through your feet and push your hips up. You should feel this variation fatiguing the outer portion of your thighs. Make sure you keep your knees over your toes throughout the entire movement. Don't let them move forward over the toes. In a controlled motion, let your hips sink back down toward the ground. This completes 1 repetition. Perform 3 sets of 15 repetitions, or 3 rounds of a 30-second hold.

结局指标
主要结局
Quality of Life EQ-5D
时间窗: upto 4 weeks
EQ-5D Health-Related Quality of Life Question checked the quality of life of the patients. Descriptive system for health-related quality of life states in adults, consisting of five dimensions (Mobility, Self-care, Usual activities, Pain \& discomfort, Anxiety \& depression), each with five severity levels described by statements appropriate to that dimension. The scale ranges from 100 ('the best imaginable health state' or 'the best health state you can imagine') to 0 ('the worst imaginable health state' or 'the worst health you can imagine'). This is used to obtain a respondent's stated preference values, not to record their own health state.
Numerical Pain Rating scale (NPRS)
时间窗: upto 4 weeks
The numerical Pain Rating scale (NPRS) assesses the pain in the gluteal region. Pain is assessed using a Numeric pain rating (NPRS). The scale ranges from 0 to 10. 0 indicates "no pain", and 10 indicates "worst Pain. mild pain score 1 to 3 moderate pain score 4 to 7 severe pain score with interference with functioning. 8 to 10
Oswestry disability score
时间窗: upto 4 weeks
Oswestry Disability score is used to measure low back disability. Each ten item is scored from 0 to 5, and the total is added and multiplied by 2. Therefore, the ODI ranges from 0 to 100. A higher score on the ODI indicates a more severe disability caused by LBP. Oswestry Disability Index will evaluate disability for disability. This questionnaire will be used to assess disability. It comprises 10 items, 7 related to daily activities, 2 related to pain, and 1 related to concentration. Each item scores from 0 to 5. The total score is expressed as a percentage with higher scores related to more significant disability
