About this trial

The current study will try to answer the following research question:

In adults with sacroiliac joint dysfunction, what is the effect of combination LD strengthening exercises with gluteal strengthening exercises compared with gluteal strengthening exercises alone on the primary outcomes of this study (pain intensity during pressure on posterior superior iliac spine \[PSIS\] and neuropathic pain severity) and the secondary outcomes (disability, pelvic inclination, pelvic torsion, sacral inclination, GMax and LD strength)?

Participants will be devided equally into two groups:

1. Group A (Control group): will receive a gluteal strengthening exercise program. 2. Group B (Intervention group): will receive the same gluteal strengthening exercise program as group A, in addition to the LD strengthening exercise program.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

Pain intensity using the Arabic version of the numeric pain rating scale (Ar-NPRS) during PSIS pressure

Ar- NPRS comprises an 11-point -horizontal scale‖ of 0-10 in Arabic numerals anchored by the two ends, the left (0 indicating no pain at all) and right (10) indicating the worst pain ever. Mild pain ranges from 1-3, moderate pain 4-6 and severe pain 7-10. The patients can indicate the number that describes their pain level closely.

Time frame

week 7

Secondary outcomes

Disability using the Arabic Roland-Morris disability questionnaire (ArRMDQ)

The Arabic version of Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (ArRMDQ) consists of 24 items ranging from 0 to 24. Statements were chosen to cover multiple aspects of daily living, and the phrase -because of my back‖ was added to each statement to specify that the limitation described was due to back problems
