Low Back Pain Intensity and Core Muscle Strength After Different Delivery Modes

NCT05493891 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 36

Last updated 2025-10-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cesarean delivery (CD) may trigger an increase in low back pain (LBP) intensity and induce core muscle weakness. This study will assess the correlation between low back pain intensity and core muscle strength of transverse abdominis and Lumbar multifidus among women who underwent CD and compare it with those who experienced vaginal delivery.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain and Core Muscle

Interventions

OTHER

Visual analogue scale (VAS)

VAS is a reliable and valid method for assessing the intensity of low back pain (LBP)

DEVICE

Pressure Biofeedback Unit (PBU)

PBU is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring the maximal voluntary isometric contraction of both lumbar multifidus and transversus abdominis muscles (core muscle strength)
