Biomechanical and Viscoelastic Properties of Thoracolumbar Fascia in Pregnancy Pelvic Girdle Pain

NCT05403424 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2024-09-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

It has not been objectively clarified how the thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) changes the biomechanical adaptations that occur in the lumbopelvic region during pregnancy and whether it is associated with pelvic girdle pain (PGP). Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine the biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of TLF, which adapts to the changes in the lumbopelvic region in pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain, and to investigate its relationship with PGP.

Conditions

  • Pregnant Women
  • Pelvic Girdle Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Evaluation of pain

The severity of pelvic girdle pain will be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Application of pelvic girdle diagnostic tests

Pelvic girdle pain diagnostic tests will be applied.

OTHER

Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of thoracolumbar fascia

The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the thoracolumbar fascia will be measured in the prone position and measurements will be taken from three different points

OTHER

Evaluation of activity limitation

Pelvic Girdle Questionnaire will be filled
