简要总结
This study aimed to determine the efficacy of an eight-week specific exercise programme in reducing self-reported episodes and intensity of LBP, as well as modifying some of the identified risk factors for LBP, in children.

入选标准
- •Children aged 12-13 years
- •Complained of LBP in the past three months
排除标准
- •Serious spinal pathologies or deformities (e.g. severe scoliosis, spinal tumours)
- •Neurological conditions which alter motor tone
- •Physical disabilities (e.g. spinal cord injuries) which prevent the child from being able to stand up on their own without an orthotic device or brace, or which prevent the child from taking part in normal physical education (PE) classes
- •Any other serious co-morbidities (e.g. cancer, severe lung pathology)
- •Provincial sports participants, or children who were currently following a specific training programme with a biokineticist or physiotherapist
- •Current orthopaedic procedures or fractures of the spine, pelvis, lower or upper limbs
结局指标
主要结局
Low Back Pain Prevalence
时间窗: 3 months post-intervention
All of the children complained of low back pain at baseline. Low back pain prevalence post-intervention was determined by the number of children still complaining of low back pain post-intervention.
Low Back Pain Intensity
时间窗: 3 months post-intervention
The visual analogue scale (standardised 100mm, non-hatched line) was used to determine pain intensity. Scores can range between 0 and 10, with the worst possible pain/score = 10 and no pain/best score = 0. Visual analogue scale is continuous.
次要结局
- Neural Mobility(3 months post-intervention)
- Hamstring Flexibility(3 months post-intervention)
