Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction
Conditions
Brief summary
This research aimed to determine the impacts of KT and balance exercises in patients with CLBP of SIJ dysfunction.
Detailed description
The study will be based on a two-arm parallel group randomized control design. thirty participants of CLBP of SIJ Dysfunction will be recruited from the Physiotherapy department, at Integral University, India. Study objectives and procedure will be properly explained and written informed consent will be obtained at the beginning of the study. All the participants will be randomly divided into two groups A and B. Experimental group A will receive the hot pack, Stretching exercise, and Kinesio taping along with balance training (KBT), and group B will receive the hot pack, Stretching exercise, and Balance training (BT) exercise
Interventions
OTHERKinesio Taping
Kinesio tape with a 5 cm width was used. Participants were positioned on the side lying on the non-involved side with the hip joint of the involved side flexed to 45 degrees and the femur supported in neutral rotation. First, the tape was placed over the area between the ASIS and PSIS to protect the skin. Next, two strips of tape were applied over the first tape to correct anterior innominate rotation. The first piece was applied at the ASIS and pulled firmly to the PSIS in a straight anterior-to-posterior direction. The second piece was applied in an arching manner pulled firmly from the ASIS to the PSIS. the tape was changed once every 3 days
The balance training was performed on the Biodex balance system, participants wwere instructed to stand on a podium and stabilize themselves to keep the cursor in the middle of co-centered circle on the displayed screen/monitor. Stability level of platform was set on eight for first two sessions and then reduced to one level on every two sessions so that in the 9th and 10th session the stability level was four. From session four onwards, the participants performed the limit of stability exercises with Biodex Balance System. The participants performed this exercise protocol two times in each session. Total 12 sessions were given in time period of six weeks.
OTHERHot Pack and Stretching Exercises
A hot pack was applied for 20 minutes, stretching exercises were performed.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain Intensity | 6 Weeks | Pain intensity was measured by using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a linear scale wherein patients indicate their pain intensity on a 10 cm line ranging from 'no pain' to 'worst imaginable pain' |
| Functional disability | 6 Weeks | Functional disability was measured by using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), a validated 10-item questionnaire evaluating various dimensions of daily living |
| Balance | 6 Weeks | The balance was measured by using the Biodex Balance System (BBS).overall (OA), the anteroposterior (AP), and the mediolateral (ML) stability scores were measured. |
