| Popis: | The aim of the study was to compare the effect of water-based exercise in thermal mineral water versus land-based exercise therapy on the lumbar spine range of motion and physical disability in adult patients with chronic low back pain. Out of 72 patients hospitalized for inpatient treatment in a special rehabilitation hospital, 36 patients performed a 3-week standardized program of group water-based exercises and the other 36 performed a program of group land-based exercises. All patients were also treated with electro analgesic therapy and underwater massage. The patients were assessed for lumbar spine motion using standardized measures with flexible tape, while physical disability was measured by the Physical Disability Index. Evaluations were performed at the beginning and at the end of treatment. Compared with baseline, a statistically significant improvement was detected in both groups regarding both primary outcome measures. At the end of treatment, there was no statistically significant difference between the two exercise treatments in any parameter of interest (p Terapijske vježbe su temelj liječenja i rehabilitacije bolesnika s kroničnom križoboljom. Cilj ove studije bio je usporediti ishod opsega pokreta slabinske kralježnice i stupanj funkcionalne nesposobnosti jednog ciklusa terapijskog vježbanja u termomineralnoj vodi i vježbanja provedenog na suhom u bolesnika s kroničnom križoboljom. U studiju je bilo uključeno 72 bolesnika s kroničnom križoboljom hospitaliziranih u cilju stacionarne rehabilitacije u specijalnoj bolnici za medicinsku rehabilitaciju. Tridesetšestoro bolesnika je provelo 3-tjedni standardizirani program grupnih terapijskih vježbi u vodi, a drugih 36 program grupnih terapijskih vježbi na suhom. U svih je bolesnika primijenjena elektroanalgetska terapija i podvodna masaža. Mjerenje opsega pokreta slabinske kralježnice provedeno je standardnim mjerenjem uz uporabu savitljive centimetarske vrpce, dok je fizička nesposobnost mjerena uporabom upitnika Physical Disability Index. Evaluacije su provedene na početku i na kraju liječenja. U usporedbi s početnim vrijednostima utvrđeno je poboljšanje u objema skupinama glede oba primarna ishoda. Na kraju liječenja u parametrima od interesa nije bilo statistički značajne razlike između dviju skupina terapijskih vježbi (p |
