Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Back problem has become the most expensive musculoskeletal malady in the industrialized nation of the world. It is the common affliction whose specific cause and precise treatment are still baffling to the medical profession. Aim and objectives:-to determine whether Kinesiophobia, Disability, Pelvic inclination angle, Lumbar Lordosis and Lumbar ROM have any correlation in patients with chronic back pain. Methodology: Patients coming to prayas health care centre, bala pritam hospital, gokul , sbspgi opd dehradun. They were assigned according to inclusion criteria with 15 females and 13 males in two groups. Data was collected via tampa scale of kinesiophobia, quebec back pain disability score, Bow leg caliper, flexible ruler and schober’s method. Result: A statistically insignificant correlation was found between the mean of Tampa scale of kinesiophobia (TSK), quebec back pain disability score (QBPDS), Pelvic inclination angle (PIA), Lumbar lordosis (LL), Lumbar flexion (LF) and lumbar extension (LE) among the population. The Karl Pearson’s correlation coefficient for TSK, QBPDS, PIA, LL, LF, LE found no correlation ie. (0.164), (0.911), (0.556), (0.900), (0.112) for females and (0.006) (0.914), (0.314), (0.958), (0.634) for males respectively. Conclusion: only TSK and QBPDS in males showed positive correlation.
