About this trial

The study aims to determine whether lumbopelvic manipulation yields superior improvements in pain, pelvic alignment, and functional ability when combined with METs compared to the treatment provided through METs solely.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain

This instrument is commonly used to rate the severity of pain. A scale of 0 to 10 is used by patients to rate their present level of pain, with 0 indicate "no pain" and 10 indicate the "worst possible pain. The patient verbally report number between 0 to 10. NPRS demonstrate strong measurement properties in patients with low back pain

Time frame
4 weeks
2

Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) for functional disability

ODI version 2 was used in this study assess functional disability associated with low back pain and sacroilliac joint dysfunction. ODI is standardized and widely used self-reported questionnaire evaluate impact of pain on activities of daily living and functional status. It consists of 10 sections including pain intensity, personal care, lifting, walking, sitting, standing, sleeping, sex life, social life, and traveling. Each domain consists of six items that are ranked from 0 to 5, with 0 being no disability and 5 being maximum disability.

Clinometer:

Smart Phone based inclinometer is a digital tool to measure body segmental angel when placed on Anatomical landmark Such as ASIS and PSIS and estimate pelvic tilt angel in standing and sitting position and align them using tape. This smart phone-based measurement tool has Reliability intra-rater: ICC = 0.87 and inter-rater: ICC = 0.82 in standing and in sitting intra-rater: ICC = 0.91 and inter-rater: ICC = 0.88 show excellent reproducibility and consistency of measurement.
