Effect of core stabilization exercises versus general back exercises in reducing chronic low back pain

Introduction. Exercises have been shown to relieve symptoms in non-specific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) patients. Aim. This study compared the effects of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and core stabilization exercises (CSE) on pain-related disability, psychological status and sleep disturbance in patients with NSCLBP. Material and methods. This randomized controlled trial involved a total of thirty-seven (37) participants. They were randomly allotted into three groups [CBT (11), CSE (14) and control (12)]. The intervention was done once per week for duration of 60 minutes for the CBT group, 30 minutes for CSE group and 10 minutes for the control group twice per week for 8 consecutive weeks. Assessment of outcome was done at baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks. Data were analyzed using statistical package for social science version 25 at alpha level of less than 0.05. Results. The results of this study showed that there was significant improvement in the level of pain-related disability (p= 0.001), level of anxiety (p =0.001), depression (p = 0.01, p = 0.001, p =0.001) and sleep disturbance (p = 0.001) in all the groups (CBT, CSE, control) post treatment. Conclusion. CBT and CSE are both effective in the treatment of pain-related disability, sleep disturbance, and psychological status of NSCLBP patients.

Core Stabilization Exercise

Latar Belakang: Low back pain (LBP) merupakan keadaan nyeri punggung bawah. Nyeri yang timbul pada low back pain bukan merupakan suatu penyakit ataupun diagnosis, melainkan istilah untuk nyeri yang dirasakan di area anatomi yang terkena dengan berbagai variasi lamanya terjadi nyeri. Pada beberapa kejadian nyeri awal dapat berlanjut selama periode 3 bulan dan akhirnya berkembang menjadi chronic low back pain (CLBP). Tujuan: Studi ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh penurunan nyeri setelah diberikan core stabilization exercise (CSE) terhadap chronic low back pain berdasarkan literature yang ada dan mengetahui jenis latihan core stabilization exercise pada chronic low back pain berdasarkan literature yang ada. Metode: Penelitian ini adalah menggunakan studi critical review. Hasil: Dari hasil studi ini ditemukan 8 dari 148 artikel yang sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi. Pada studi ini 8 artikel yang digunakan sebagai landasan studi yang dilanjutkan untuk tahap appraisal. Hasil dari appraisal terdapat 6 artikel memiliki nilai Quartile 1 (Q1) dan 2 artikel yang memiliki nilai Quartile 2 (Q2). Lalu penilaian PEDro scale didaptkan 7 artikel yang memiliki bias rendah > 5 dan 1 artikel memiliki bias yang tinggi ?5. Kesimpulan: Berdasarkan hasil studi yang telah dilakukan pada pengaruh core stabilization exercise terhadap penurunan nyeri pada chronic low back pain berdasarkan studi pada literature yang ada dapat disimpulkan bahwa core stabilization exercise berpengaruh dalam penurunan nyeri pada chronic low back pain.

Strengthening Exercises

Objectives: Exercise is the most widely used form of treatment adopted for gaining relief from low back pain. But the efficacy of core stabilization and dynamic strengthening exercise on cardiopulmonary parameters of non-specific chronic low back pain patients needs to be established. This study therefore compared the effects of core stabilization and dynamic strengthening exercises on pain related disability and selected cardiopulmonary parameters in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP).Methods: A total of 20 (44.55±10.78years) NSCLBP patients participated in this study. They were assigned into two different groups. Group A and B received core stabilization exercise and dynamic strengthening exercise respectively. Participants went through this protocol twice weekly for 4 consecutive weeks and were thereafter assessed for pain-related disability, and selected cardiopulmonary parameters.Results: The result of this study revealed that both exercises (core stabilization and dynamic) improved pain–related disability (p=0.011; p=0.004) and some cardiopulmonary parameters in peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) (p= 0.001, P=0.034) and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) (P=0.001, P=0.001) Pulse rate (PR) (P=0.042, P=0.005).Conclusions: This study showed that both interventions (core stabilization and dynamic strengthening exercise) led to similar result in managing pain-related disability and selected cardiopulmonary parameters except in systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) in patients with NSCLBP when between groups comparison was done.
