Pelvis Displacement and Gait Indicators in Patient With Lumbar Disc Herniation

Completed
Conditions
Gait Analysis
Lumbar Disc Herniation
Pelvis Abnormal
Registration Number
NCT04230733
Lead Sponsor
Jaseng Medical Foundation
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation between pattern of gait and pelvic displacement in patients with lumbar disc herniation.

Detailed Description

Walking is a repetitive movement that moves your body while keeping your posture stable. The pelvis is located between the hip and lumbar region, where many muscles are attached to regulate the movement of the hip and lumbar spine. Asymmetrical pelvic alignment affects stability of the lower extremities and trunk, making normal walking difficult. The purpose of this study is to investigate the pattern of gait according to pelvic displacement in patients with lumbar disc herniation.
