No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis usually are present with low back pain, muscle spasm and weakness, radicular symptoms, intermittent claudication, insomnia, even urine or stool incontinence. There are very few research on the effectiveness of core spine stabilization exercise, balance training, and the balance effect while wearing lumbar corset in these patients.

Purpose: To investigate 1) the correlation of dynamic balance and the degree of disability with the characteristics of spinopelvic alignment. 2) potential predictors of dynamic spino-pelvic instability, 3) the effectiveness of core spine stabilization exercise, balance training and balance effect of the wearing of lumbar corset in patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis .
