Popis: | Low back pain (LBP) patients demonstrate reorganized trunk muscle activity but if similar changes are manifest in recurrent LBP patients (R-LBP) during asymptomatic periods remains unknown. In 26 healthy and 27 currently asymptomatic R-LBP participants electromyographic activity (EMG) was recorded from trunk and gluteal muscles during series of stepping up and down on a step bench before and during experimentally intramuscular induced unilateral and bilateral LBP. Pain intensity was assessed by numeric rating scale (NRS) scores. Root-mean-square EMG (RMS-EMG) normalized to maximal voluntary contraction EMG and pain-evoked differences from baseline (Delta-RMS-EMG) were analyzed. Step task duration was calculated from foot sensors. R-LBP compared with controls showed higher baseline RMS-EMG and NRS scores of experimental pain (PPERSPECTIVES: Task duration and trunk muscle activity increased in controls and decreased in R-LBP patients during experimental muscle LBP. These results indicate protective strategies in controls during acute pain while R-LBP patients showed higher pain intensity and altered strategies that may be caused by the higher pain intensity, but the long-term consequence remains unknown. |
