简要总结
Background:
Anterolisthesis presents with tightness of hamstring muscle which is a major contributing factor for low back pain and disability. Suboccipital Myofascial release decreases the tension in the fascia and helps to amend the muscle imbalance. There is a presence of superficial backline between suboccipitalis and hamstring muscle.
Aim:
The purpose of the study is to find out the effect of sub occipital myofascial release on hamstring tightness along with pain and disability associated with it in Anterolisthesis.
Methods:
The study will recruit individuals with Anterolisthesis between the age of 35- 55. Pathologies which will limit or interfere with the test outcome shall be excluded. The samples will be collected using criterion based sampling. Procedure will be explained prior to the intervention
Data analysis:
Normality of the collected data will be established by Shapiro Wilk Test. Based on the normality, descriptive statistics data will be expressed as mean ± standard deviation or median and intra quartile range. Within group comparison will be done by paired t test or Wilcoxon signed rank test and between group comparison will be done through independent t test or Mann Whitney U test.
详细描述
- Introduction:
Anterolisthesis refers to an anterior displacement of a vertebra over subjacent vertebra causing low back pain, radiculopathy and hamstring tightness. Hamstring tightness causes improper patterns in the lumbopelvic region. There is a dura matter which connects suboccipitalis and hamstring muscle and reduction in the tone of suboccipitalis will thus cause decrease in tone of hamstring muscle. Myofascial release is a manipulative treatment that attempts to release tension in fascia and has an effect to decrease soreness of muscle.
1.1.Problem statement: Generally in patients with anterolisthesis a single component is considered as a treatment, this study thus aims to be a bridge filling the gap in the scientific cognizance
1.2.Purpose of the study:The target of the study is to see the outcome of sub occipitalis myofascial release on tightness of hamstring muscle, pain and disability.
1.3.Objectives of the study: To evaluate the efficacy of suboccipital myofascial release and conventional physiotherapy treatment in tightness of hamstring muscle, pain and disability 2. Procedure:

结局指标
主要结局
Popliteal Angle Test
时间窗: 2 weeks
Popliteal angle is an assessment of the tone of the hamstring muscles. The thigh is flexed on the abdomen with one hand and then the other hand straightens the leg by pushing on the back of the ankle until there is firm resistance to the movement. Popliteal angle is measured in degrees.
Modified Oswerstry Disability Index
时间窗: 2 weeks
It is an extremely important tool used to measure a patient's permanent functional disability. The total score range from 0-50.
次要结局
