Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effective exercise protocol in chronic low back pain patients.
Detailed Description
* Design: Prospective study * Setting: hospital rehabilitation department * Intervention: Participants are randomly assigned 4 different exercise group: flexibility exercise, bracing exercise + stabilization exercise group, bracing exercise+ walking exercise group and bracing+ walking + stabilization exercise group * Main outcome measures: Numeric rating scale(NRS), Oswestry disability index Peak torque of lumbar extensor by surface electromyography Time duration of capability of maintenance the posture

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Low Back Pain at Resting Status
Time Frame: Baseline Pre-Exercise and 6 weeks
numerical rating scale (NRS) (Unit: Point) Subjects indicate pain in columns 0 (no pain) to 100 (uncontrollable pain).
Disability for Low Back Pain
Time Frame: Baseline Pre-Exercise and 6 weeks
Oswestry disability index(ODI) (Unit: Point) The self-completed questionnaire contains ten topics concerning intensity of pain, lifting, ability to care for oneself, ability to walk, ability to sit, sexual function, ability to stand, social life, sleep quality, and ability to travel. Each topic category is followed by 6 statements describing different potential scenarios in the patient's life relating to the topic. The patient then checks the statement which most closely resembles their situation. Each question is scored on a scale of 0-5 with the first statement being zero and indicating the least amount of disability and the last statement is scored 5 indicating most severe disability. The scores for all questions answered are summed, then multiplied by two to obtain the index (range 0 to 100). Zero is equated with no disability and 100 is the maximum disability possible.\[
Visual Analog Scale of Low Back Pain During Rest
Time Frame: 0 week to 6weeks
visual analog scale of low back pain during resting status at 0 week and 6 week Record 'no pain' on the left side of the line as 'unpaid pain' on the right side and indicate the degree of pain in the subject(0 to 100) 0 is equated with 'no pain' and 100 is 'unpaid pain'
Secondary Outcomes
- Muscle Strength(Endurance)(Baseline Pre-Exercise and 6 weeks)
- Depression Scale(6 weeks)
