“…Core stability exercises have beneficial effect in both the groups by reducing pain and disability of patients with low back pain as the segmental muscles were worked out [13]. Khan S et al (2013), concluded that the addition of SWD along with exercises improves the symptoms of chronic LBP [14]. Another reason for the reduction in pain and disability in both group can be due to the application of SWD.…”

Background: Low Back Pain (LBP) is a health related problem than affects 80% of the population within the age limit of 15 to 45 years. The primary treatment used for patients with LBP includes muscle strengthening along with thermotherapeutic modalities. Thus the purpose of the study is to see the efficacy of EMG biofeedback assisted core stability exercises versus core stability exercises alone in patients suffering from pain and disability.Methodology: A total of 30 patients were divided through convenient sampling method into two group-A and B. Each group had 15 patients. In Group A-SWD, traction, IFT and core stability exercises were given where as in Group B EMG biofeedback assisted core stability exercises were given for 5 treatment session per week for 2 weeks and reassessment was done on 5th and 10th day post treatment. Result:The result of the study showed that there was statistically significant (p<0.05) improvement in both Group A and B in terms of pain (NPRS) and disability (ODQ) after 10th day of treatment. Whereas on comparison within groups the result showed that there was significant (p<0.05) improvement in Group B 10th day post treatment rather than Group A on day 10th. Conclusion:The study supports that EMG biofeedback assisted core stability exercises are helpful for treating patients with LBP to reduce their pain as well as disability.

“…The authors concluded that SWD associated with abdominal exercises was more effective; however, the study was not randomized and there was no placebo group. The study of Khan et al 27 also compared the application of SWD associated with exercise (aerobic warm-up for 6 minutes, 15 stretches for the whole body and strengthening exercises for the back, abdomen and hip, 3 times a week, for 6 weeks) and found that the association of SWD was more efficient for symptom relief than exercise alone.…”

Short-Wave Diathermy in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The aim of this study was to evaluate the evidence of application of short-wave diathermy (SWD) in individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP) and its prescription parameters. The data sources (MEDLINE, PubMed, LILACS, DARE, PsycINFO, AusportMed, SciELO, PEDro and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) were systematically searched for articles published up to December 2017. Randomized and non-randomized clinical trial studies that investigated the effect of the application of SWD on CLBP were selected. Two independent reviewers assessed the risk of bias in studies using the Jadad and the Downs & Black scales. Five studies (731 patients) were included, all of whom presented improvements in CLBP. The majority used continuous mode SWD, with only one using pulsed mode (82 and 200 Hz). SWD produced improvements in CLBP, but there is limited evidence for its application, and a lack of standardization of the parameters used. Furthermore, the results that address this topic should be interpreted with caution due to their low methodological quality and limited number. Level of evidence II; Systematic review.

“…According to Khan et al (2013) modality in heating is more effective than superficial heat in pain management in chronic low back pain patients. The application of TENS can also relieve pain in lower back pain, because the stimulation mechanism is a pain reliever based on the Gate of Control theory conceptualized by Melzack and Wall.…”

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is defined as a symptom that cannot be specifically validated. LBP is one of the most common forms of musculoskeletal disorders. Anyone can experience lower back pain throughout his life, because LBP is back pain without any underlying abnormalities. There are many exercises that can be given to treat this LBP, one of which is the McKenzie Exercise. The principle of this exercise is to improve posture to reduce lumbar hyperlordosis. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the McKenzie Exercise for pain reduction in patients with non-specific LBP. Subjects and Method: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis carried out with the PRISM flow diagram. Search for articles through journal databases includes: PubMed, Science Direct, Google Schoolar and PEDro by selecting articles published in 2010-2020. The keywords used were ("LBP" OR "Low Back Pain") AND ("McKenzie Exercise" OR "Therapy") AND "randomized controlled trial". The inclusion criteria were full paper articles with the Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), the size of the relationship used with the Mean SD, the intervention given was McKenzie Exercise, the study subjects had an age range of 18-65 years, and experienced non-specific low back pain, without radicular pain. Eligible articles were analyzed using the Revman 5.3. Results: A meta-analysis of 11 articles showed that the McKenzie Exercise was able to reduce pain in patients with non-specific low back pain by 0.44 times compared to other interventions or no intervention. (SMD -0.44; 95% CI = -1.06 to 0.18; p = 0.16). Conclusion:McKenzie Exercise has a weak effect to reduce pain in patients with nonspecific low back pain.
