Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| As a primary endpoint of this research, we expect the functional improvement of patients with low back pain, using the Oswestry questionnaire, which evaluates the functional capacity of the Spine, this questionnaire includes ten six-point scales, which evaluate from the intensity of the pain and the incidence of pain in activities of daily living. All items except sexual activity are used in the calculation of a total population over the individual. The score of the questionnaire is made by summing the responses of the items, which will give a score of 0 to 100, with the results interpreted in: score of 0-20 represents minimal disability, 20 to 40 represent moderate disability, 40 to 60 represents severe disability, and scores above 60 indicate that the patient is severely affected, index equivalent to total disability. The questionnaire is quantified by its score ranging from 0 to 100. The questionnaire was applied at the beginning of the collection and was re-evaluated at the end of the treatment program. 01/03/2016 to 04/15/2016 - first group of 5 patients who were randomized in the groups. 07/15/2016 to 08/29/2016 - second group of 10 patients who were randomized in the groups. 03/03/2017 to 04/17/2017 - third group of 10 patients who were randomized in the groups. 01/08/2017 to 09/15/2017 - fourth group of 5 patients who participated in the study. 10/01/2018 to 24/02/2018 - last group of 10 patients | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| As a secondary outcome, we expect to improve the strength of CORE muscles so that this occurs all volunteers will undergo the exercise protocol for better stabilization of CORE muscles. In the initial evaluation the volunteers will be submitted to the evaluation of the length of stay (measurement in seconds) of the lateral plank that predicts the strength of the CORE muscles, the evaluations will be performed at the beginning and at the end of the rehabilitation program. 01/03/2016 to 04/15/2016 - first group of 5 patients who were randomized in the groups. 07/15/2016 to 08/29/2016 - second group of 10 patients who were randomized in the groups. 03/03/2017 to 04/17/2017 - third group of 10 patients who were randomized in the groups. 01/08/2017 to 09/15/2017 - fourth group of 5 patients who participated in the study. 10/01/2018 to 2/24/2018 - last group of patients 10 | — |
