Contralateral Neurodynamic Technique Versus Passive Accessory Intervertebral Movements on Pain and Range of Motion in Subjects with Sciatica.
Background: Low backache with sciatica is a highly prevalent disease among world population causing the high physical limitation and economic burden of low backache with sciatica. CND helps to mobilize the nerve and PAIVMs have an effect on tissue interface. Methods: The study was conducted among 30...

| Sumario: | Background: Low backache with sciatica is a highly prevalent disease among world population causing the high physical limitation and economic burden of low backache with sciatica. CND helps to mobilize the nerve and PAIVMs have an effect on tissue interface. Methods: The study was conducted among 30 subjects Group A (n=15) was received the contralateral neurodynamic technique and therapeutic ultrasound. Group B (n=15) received passive accessory intervertebral movements and therapeutic ultrasound for continuous 6 days. After 6days the pain and the ROM were compared. In Group A the mean of the knee ROM improved from 67.20 to 82.90 and the mean VAS score improved from 5.66 to 4.00 which are statistically significant (p<0.05). In Group B the mean knee ROM improved from 71.40 to 77.06 and VAS score improved from 5.45 to 2.33(p<0.05) which are statistically significant as well. Conclusion: Both the treatment techniques are equally effective in improving the Knee ROM. However, CNDT has shown more significant results than the PAIVMs in increasing knee ROM in subjects with sciatica and Passive accessory intervertebral movement technique is more effective in reducing the pain. |
