简要总结
The recovery of the patient’s functional impairment who have underwent lumbar spine surgery is also multifactorial, the causes for restriction of movements can be very distant. For example, a study has shown that degenerative spine disease patients experiencing more social support and less life stress tend to report greater satisfaction in medical outcome and overall quality of life following spinal decompression. 21
A study on critical analysis of the exercise prescription and return to activity advise following lumbar spine surgery highlights a clear variation in the recommendations of the exercise prescription, dosage and returning to normal activities following lumbar spine surgery. The study emphasizes that the patient information leaflet lacks a relationship to functional activity and their effectiveness is questioned. Furthermore because of the multidimensional nature of the treatment of low back / radicular leg pain there is a need to emphasize on psychological and social support. The study concludes a need to focus on providing a consistent and patient centered approach to recovery. 22
Most outcome measures used, following lumbar spine surgeries have quantified answers, but the experiences and the views of the patients are rarely explored. Therefore, it is important to understand by an in-depth interview of which movements or activities are restricted and what could be the probable factors influencing them.
The range of activities that may be restricted in the Indian scenario is quite different considering our culture. Understanding these activities and factors affecting them could play a very significant role to have a patient centered approach in patients who have underwent degenerative lumbar spine surgery.
Hence there is a need to see which activities are restricted and what are the factors influencing them in degenerative lumbar spine surgery patients.
The objective of the study is to explore restricted activities post Degenerative Lumbar Spine Surgery and the factors influencing them.
