Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pain reduction after training, evaluated by the Visual Analog Scale, based on the variation of at least 10% between pre and post intervention evaluations.;Pain decrease after Pilates group training of 85% of test day and 55% of daily pain. Pain reduction after the training of the kinesiotherapy group of 45%. The group of educational actions did not present a significant difference.;Increased muscle endurance time after training, assessed by the Biering-sorensen test, from the variation of at least 10% between pre and post intervention evaluations.;Increased muscle endurance time after training with the Pilates method by 139%. The kinesiotherapy group and educational actions group did not present a significant difference.;Increased values of gait velocity of preference and maximal walking, evaluated in treadmill by the Biering-sorensen test, from the variation of at least 30% between the pre and post-intervention evaluations.;The values of gait velocity of preference and maximal walking did not present difference in the groups evaluated.;Increased paravertebral muscle strength after training, assessed by the lumbar dynamometer test, from the variation of at least 10% between pre and post intervention evaluations.;Increased paravertebral muscle strength after training with the Pilates method by 14%. Strength increase after training of the kinesiotherapy group of 13%. The group of educational actions did not present a significant difference.;Increased flexibility of the ischiocrural muscles, assessed by the sit and reach test and popliteal biophotogrammetry, from a variation of at least 10% between pre and post intervention evaluations.;Increased flexibility assessed by the sit and reach test after training with the Pilates method at 14%, and training of the kinesiotherapy group of 11%. The group of educational actions did not present a significant difference. The biophotogrammetry of the popliteal angle, there was no difference in the groups evaluated.;Increase in Qua | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased activity of internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multiipid and iliocostal muscles after training, assessed during the Biering-sorensen test using surface electromyography, using a variation of at least 30% between pre and post-intervention evaluations.;The activity of internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multiipid and iliocostal muscles after training, evaluated during the Biering-sorensen test, did not present any difference in the groups evaluated.;Increased activity of the internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multiipid and iliocostal muscles after training, assessed during treadmill treadmill treadmill using surface electromyography, using at least 30% variation between pre and post intervention evaluations.;The activity of internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multiipid and iliocostal muscles after training, evaluated during treadmill treadmill, did not present any difference in the groups evaluated.;Increased activity of the internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multiipid and iliocostal muscles after training, evaluated during the muscle strength test with the use of surface electromyography, from the variation of at least 30% between pre and post intervention evaluations.;The activity of internal oblique, abdominal rectus, multifid and iliocostal muscles after training, evaluated during the muscle strength test, did not present any difference in the groups evaluated. | — |
