研究概览
简要总结
The biomechanical characteristics of lumbar paraspinal muscles may give us insight into different lower back dysfunctions in postpartum mothers after cesarean section.
详细描述
Stiffness and elasticity are two mechanical characteristics of the muscles, whereas relaxation time and creeping are two viscoelastic characteristics.
Different studies investigated the mechanical properties of lumbar paraspinal muscles in numerous musculoskeletal conditions, however, no previous studies investigated these characteristics after cesarean section, which is associated with high prevalence of lower back pain when compared with normal delivery.

结局指标
主要结局
Lumbar Paraspinal Muscles Stiffness, measured by the MyotonPRO device in units of N/m.
时间窗: 6-12 weeks after cesarean section
muscular stiffness refers to muscle resistance against forces that deform it.
Lumbar Paraspinal Muscles Elasticity, measured by the MyotonPRO device in a relative unit
时间窗: 6-12 weeks after cesarean section
Muscular Elasticity refers to the muscular ability to return to its original shape after the removal of tensional forces.
次要结局
