Segmental stabilization and aussie current in women with nonspecific chronic lower back pain

Introduction: Lower back pain impacts almost 80% of the population. A lower back’s is taken as non-specific when there is not a closed clinical diagnosis. This paper compared the outcomes with the segmental stabilization and the Aussie current’s usage in an isolated and joint form for the treatment of lower back pain. Materials and Methods: This is an analytical clynical trial, with a control group which was a subproject of the research named "Physiotherapeutic performance in orthopedic and sports dysfunctions" endorsed by the opinion of number 2,418,872. The sample was comprised by 24 assessed subjects, before and after interventions, through the Visual Analogue Scale and the Start Back and Rolland Morris questionnaire. Afterwards, they were shared among the treatments’s protocol with (1) isolated segmental stabilization, (2) Aussie isolated current, (3) segmental stabilization + Aussie current, and (4) control group. The data analysis was done by the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program 22.0 version with the paired t-Student test, Wilcoxon and Kruskal Wallis. The level of confidence was 95% (p<0,05). Results: It was noticed that the Aussie current, in an isolated way (p = 0.027) and / or incorporated with the segmental stabilization (p = 0.047) led to greater outcomes. Conclusion: It was settled that the Aussie current was seen as the a better option to decrease pain.
