Effects of Mulligan's Mobilization With and Without Clamshell Exercises in Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

November 8, 2022 updated by: Riphah International University

Effects of Mulligan's Mobilization With and Without Clamshell Exercise on Pain, Disability and Quality of Life in Patients With Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is the changing of joint structure (ligaments, muscles and cartilage) that cause impairments and movement restrictions. It is one of the primary sources of low back pain among female population and often misdiagnosed. Almost 15-30% patients are suffering from sacroiliac joint dysfunction who presented with the complaint of low back pain. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of mulligan's mobilization with and without clamshell exercise on pain, disability and quality of life in patients with sacroiliac joint dysfunction.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

A Randomized controlled trial will be conducted at Fatima Memorial Hospital Physiotherapy Clinic & Boston Physiotherapy and wellness Clinic through consecutive sampling technique on 32 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A & group B. Group A will be treated with only mulligan's mobilization with movement at the frequency of 3 sets with 10 repetitions 3 times/ week without the clamshell exercise. Group B will be treated with mulligan's mobilization with movement and clamshell exercises. Outcome measures will be conducted through pain, disability and quality of life questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed during SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro Wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Mulligan mobilization
Group A will be treated with only mulligan's mobilization with movement at the frequency of 3 sets with 10 repetitions 3 times/ week without the clamshell exercise.
Other: Mulligan mobilization
Mulligan Mobilization designed to reduce pain and improve the patient's range of motion. Mulligan's mobilization with movement at the frequency of 3 sets with 10 repetitions 3 times/ week without the clamshell exercise.
Active Comparator: Mulligan mobilization with clamshell exercise
Group B will be treated with mulligan's mobilization with movement and clamshell exercises.
Other: clamshell exercise
As a general exercise, the clamshell can help strengthen your medial glutes, bringing more power and stability to your hips. This group treated with mulligan's mobilization with movement and clamshell exercises.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
1. NPRS
Time Frame: follow up at 6th week
Patient level of pain was assessed using this scale. This scale ranges from 0 to 10. 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "worst pain"
follow up at 6th week
2. Oswestry Disability index (NDI)
Time Frame: follow up at 6th week
It comprises 10 items, 7 related with daily activities, 2 related to pain , 1 related to concentration. Each item scores from 0 to 5. Total score is expressed as percentage with higher scores related to greater disability.
follow up at 6th week
Euro Quality of life (EQ-5D)
Time Frame: follow up at 6th week
Quality of life will be checked by Euro Quality of life (EQ-5D) Health Related Quality of Life Question.
follow up at 6th week
