Common upper limb musculoskeletal disorders require bracing and physical therapy, but patient non-compliance with bracing is widespread. The study aims to identify the factors that result in non-compliance with upper limb bracing following physical therapy, thus affecting the patient’s recovery from injury.\u0000\u0000Methods: Across-sectional descriptive study ontotal of 300 patients between ages 20-50 was conducted at Centre of Benzair Bhutto Hospital. A self-designed questionnaire was used to evaluate the history and factors affecting patient compliance. Orthotic Prosthetic user survey form was used to assess non-compliance with the brace.\u0000\u0000Results: Out of a total of 300 patients,100 (33.3%) subjects correctly used the brace, 115 (38.33%) subjects did not use the brace, and 85 (28.33) subjects used the brace but did not use it as advised by the orthotist. Out of 115 non-users, 75 patients could not afford the brace, and 40 patients thought they were improving with physiotherapy, so there was no need to use the brace. The most common factors affecting patient compliance with bracing following physiotherapy are either the brace being uncomfortable (36.4%) or discomfort at night (18.8%).\u0000\u0000Conclusion: Patient’s compliance was reported following physiotherapy, though the participants were reluctant to use the brace due to highcost and discomfort. Efforts to decrease the cost of brace, and discomfort may be beneficial in increasing compliance with bracing treatment following physiotherapy.\u0000\u0000Keywords: Compliance, Non-Compliance, Orthotics, Orthoses Physiotherapy.","PeriodicalId":489035,"journal":{"name":"Allied Medical Research Journal","volume":"32 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140481846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even though LSE is a highly successful treatment for lumbar instability and pain reduction, further research is necessary to fully understand its effects and maximize its use for a larger population.\u0000\u0000Methods: Patients aged between 40 and 60 years with symptoms of lower back pain were included in the study. The patients were chosen based on the diagnosis, symptoms, and clinical presentation, consistent with a radiologic diagnosis of spondylosis and spondylolisthesis. Exercise sessions gradually increased in duration, with a pressure biofeedback monitor ensuring ten accurate contractions held for 10 seconds each. Low-loadleverage through the limbs was introduced to progress the workouts.\u0000\u0000Results: The significant decrease in pain levels reflects the positive impact of stability exercises on the functional disability level of patients. The baseline mean disability level of 26.34 exhibited notable improvement, decreasing to 16.23 with a mean difference of 10.11. The statistical significance of this mean difference (p<0.05) provides compelling evidence to reject the null hypothesis,affirming the effectiveness of the intervention in positively influencing the disability level among the participants.\u0000\u0000Conclusion: The study’s findings highlight the beneficial effects of customized stabilization exercise programs on lumbar instability and persistent low back pain.
