Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the interventional of bare-handed core muscle strength training and the sling exercise therapy (SET) on low back pain.Methods The soldiers of an Air Force Station who suffered from low back pain participated in the study.One hundred and forty-four patients were equally divided into three groups: the core muscle strength group (using core muscle strength training and the general physical therapy), the SET group (using SET and general physical therapy), and the control group (using the general physical therapy).All the groups were tested for 6 weeks.Questionnaires were distributed to the three groups before intervention, two weeks, four weeks and six weeks after intervention in order to find out about the degree of LBP, lumbar function and activity of these cases.Changes in the lumbar muscle strength were observed.Results The number of the patients who completed the test included 43 cases in the bare-handed core muscle strength group, 43 cases in the SET group and 44 cases in the control group, respectively, the VAS scores were 3.25, the Roland scores were 5.83,the FFD scores were 8.58 of the bare-handed core muscle strength group;the VAS scores were 3.30, the Roland scores were 5.93,the FFD scores were 8.10 of the SET group;the VAS scores were 2.41, the Roland scores were 3.03,the FFD scores were 7.40 of the control group.The LBP intervention efficiency of the three groups was 90.90%, 85.13% and 46.82%, respectively.There was no significant difference in indexes between the test groups(P>0.05).But compared with the control group,there was significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion The bare-handed core muscle strength training and SET have obvious effects on LBP cases.According to their own infrastructure and facilities, military health care organizations in different environments can intervene in LBP cases with the bare-handed core muscle strength training or SET to alleviate the pain effectively.
