DYNAMIC LUMBAR STABILIZATION PROGRAM VERSUS CONVENTIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM AFTER DISCECTOMY
Sara Ahmed Amin Abd Elrahman;
Abstract
Summary:
Discectomy is a surgical technique used for treatment of lumbar disc herniation. After the surgery; the patient suffers from back pain and limitation of motion which affect his functional ability, so this study concerned to assess the effectiveness of two rehabilitation programs after
8 weeks from lumbar discectomy.
The purpose of this study was to compare between the effect of dynamic lumbar stabilization program and the effect of a conventional rehabilitation program on the sagittal segmental lumbar motion and the functional disability in patients with lumbar discectomy.
Thirty patients with L4-L5 open discectomy participated in this study in two groups; group (A) and group (B) with mean age of 32.40 (±
5.70) years, mean weight of67.93 (±8.31) Kg, mean height of 170.93 (±
6.36) em and all of them were males, they were referred from the Neurosurgery and the Orthopedic surgery departments, at Kasr El ainy hospital, faculty ofMedicine, Cairo University.
The evaluation procedures were carried out by using Spinal Mouse device to measure the sagittal segmental lumbar motion at level L4-L5 segment and Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Scale was also used to measure the functional disability of these patients.
Group (A) received dynamic lumbar stabilization program for 12 sessions, while group (B) received a conventional rehabilitation program
