Abstract
Objective: We aimed to examine the effects of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) approach in older patients with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP).
Methods: A total of 72 participants with CNSLBP were assigned to either the experimental group (n = 36) or control group (n = 36) in this randomized study. A conventional physiotherapy program was administered to the participants in the control group for 3 days per week for a total of 6 weeks. In addition to the conventional program, DNS exercise protocol was performed for 3 days per week for 6 weeks for the participants in the experimental group. While quality of movements and exercise capacity were our primary outcomes, functional balance and quality of life constituted our secondary outcomes. The participants were assessed both at baseline and post-treatment.
Results: The improvement in a deep squat, in-line lunge, hurdle step, shoulder flexibility, rotary trunk stability, total Functional Movement Screening score, and Timed-up and Go Test score was greater in the experimental group (p<.05). The improvement was similar in both groups in terms of the rest of outcome measures.
Discussion: This study demonstrated the effectiveness of the DNS approach on some functional movement patterns and functional balance performance in older patients with CNSLBP.
目的:我们旨在检验动态神经肌肉稳定(DNS)方法在老年慢性非特异性腰痛(CNSLBP)患者中的作用。方法:将72名CNSLBP患者分为实验组(n = 36)或对照组(n = 36)。对照组受试者接受常规物理治疗3个月 每周天,共6天 周。除了常规程序外,还对3个 每周6天 实验组参与者的周数。虽然运动质量和运动能力是我们的主要结果,但功能平衡和生活质量是我们的次要结果。在基线和治疗后对参与者进行了评估。结果:深蹲、直列箭步、栏步、肩部灵活性、躯干旋转稳定性、功能性运动筛查总分的改善,实验组的Timed up and Go Test得分更高(p讨论:本研究证明了DNS方法对老年CNSLBP患者的一些功能运动模式和功能平衡表现的有效性。
期刊介绍:
Somatosensory & Motor Research publishes original, high-quality papers that encompass the entire range of investigations related to the neural bases for somatic sensation, somatic motor function, somatic motor integration, and modeling thereof. Comprising anatomical, physiological, biochemical, pharmacological, behavioural, and psychophysical studies, Somatosensory & Motor Research covers all facets of the peripheral and central processes underlying cutaneous sensation, and includes studies relating to afferent and efferent mechanisms of deep structures (e.g., viscera, muscle). Studies of motor systems at all levels of the neuraxis are covered, but reports restricted to non-neural aspects of muscle generally would belong in other journals.
