简要总结
The purposes of this study are to compare the effects of core stabilization exercises on pain intensity, functional disability and lumbar stability between using and not using the Swiss ball in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain.
详细描述
For Patient Registries:
The participant was screened for inclusion criteria and was asked to sign the informed consent prior to participate. A randomized control trial was performed with participants randomly divided into one of the two treatment groups: core stabilization exercise with ball and core stabilization exercise without ball by using sealed envelopes.

研究组 & 干预措施
exercise with ball
The participant in core stabilization exercise with ball group performed 12 training sessions of the core stabilization exercises, 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Each exercise took 15 times/set and each participant did it repeatedly for 3 sets and rested 1 minute between sets. The total time of core stabilization exercise was 20 minutes and assessment time was 10 minutes.
干预措施: exercise with ball (Other)
exercise without ball
The participant in core stabilization exercise without ball group performed 12 training sessions of the core stabilization exercises, 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Each exercise took 15 times/set and each participant did it repeatedly for 3 sets and rested 1 minute between sets. The total time of core stabilization exercise was 20 minutes and assessment time was 10 minutes.
干预措施: exercise without ball (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Pain scale
时间窗: 4 weeks
a 0-100 mm of horizontal line (Visual analog scale) assessing pain intensity - reported the distance measured in millimeters from the left hand side of this line to the point that participant marked
次要结局
- Questionnaire scores of functional disability measure(4 weeks)
- Levels of lumbar stability(4 weeks)
