Effect of Decompression With and Without ELDOA in Lumber Disc Protrusion Patients

Overview

The study will be conducted to determine the effects of spinal decompression with and without ELDOA in patients of lumbar disc protrusion. A total of twenty patient with lumber disc protrusion will be taken after fulfilling the inclusion criteria. the patient will be divided in experimental group i.e. ELDOA along with decompression and control group. Both session got pre and post session along with general low back exs.home plan along with precautions was guided to every patient of control and experimental group.NPRS ,ODI is assess in first and fourth session. The data will be analyzed through IBM SPSS version 21.

Low back pain due to lumber disc protrusion is common health problem in all population, which affects the normal activities of daily living by decreasing the functional status due to low back pain that rad to leg. Literature supports that decompression have significant effect in improving the functional status of patient with low back pain with radiation but reoccurrence of problem of this problem is common with this problem. So my study is aiming to find the effectiveness of ELDOA along with decompression to minimize the re occurrence of low back and functional status. ELDOA will help to tone up the fascia and strengthen the spinal muscles The intervertebral disc consists of an inner nucleus pulposus (NP) and an outer annulus fibroses (AF). The central NP area which facilitate water retention, creating hydrostatic pressure to resist axial compression of the spine. The NP is primarily composed of type II collagen, which accounts for 20% of its overall dry weight. In contrast, the AF functions to maintain the NP within the center of the disc with low amount of PG; 70% of its dry weight is comprised of primarily concentric type I collagen fibers . In LDH, narrowing of the space available for the thecal sac can be due to protrusion of disc through an intact AF, extrusion of the NP through the AF though still maintaining continuity with the disc space, or complete loss of continuity with the disc space and sequestration of a free fragment. Motorized table with mechanical space in between two parts of table. Pelvic and thoracic belt is tie at lumber and thoracic level to fasten the patient. Static, intermittent and cycling distractive force applied to lumber area for minute. Distraction(angle of pull) and relaxation force is monitored by therapist. Specific disc that cause pain and other symptoms are targeted .curves on computer help to reduce muscle spasm. Antigravity force applied on lumber area in the space and pull backward protrude disc. Biofeedback computer module in which number of session depends upon medical condition age .targeted level of spine is selected. neuro oxy spinal decompression non-surgical and cost effective Treatment that stimulate natural healing of injured and degenerative vertebra. Works on decompressing and lengthening the spine with chronic pains. These movement produce negative pressure in the disc as a result vacuum created as a result bulge, protrude part repositioned and align. Nourishment of injured area is restore by oxygen and nutrients. Pressure on nerve relives patient feel symptoms free. Special senses in machine that detect limitation and tension of patient results of spinal decompression is better than traditional traction. Other name of decompression is intervertebral differential dynamic therapy, mechanical spinal distraction therapy. Negative pressure is created between vertebras so that protruded part pull inward and nerve become free from pressure. Table has two parts which is separated with space where distractive force apply on spine. Two belts thoracic and lumber to fasten the patient. Pulling force is minimal last for a minute depend upon patient symptoms can be adjusted to static, intermittent and cycling control by therapist to induce relaxation. During treatment antigravity force applied at spine automatically by machine system and helps to move protruded part back to position as a result nerve get pressure free. Treatment is painless, gentle and intermittent. Guy voyer is the founder of Elongation longitudinaux avec decoaption osteoarticulaire or LOADS longitudinal osteo articular decoaptation stretching .This exercise specifically work on every spinal level. Fascial stretch along with tension at spinal level. Strength of the back muscles and stretching of paraspinal work to improve the tone. Concept is based that micro movement affects macro movement as a result function betters. Spine contains 24 segments c0/c1/c3 and end to L5/S1.Fascia attach to vertebral bodies anteriorly. Posteriorly osseous framework ,muscles attach with bones ,bony framework include zygapophyseal joints that guide movements , ligament structure restrict the movement.Disc that is sponge act as shock absorption. Neurological and circulatory system work to continue functioning. They effect body locally and generally. Local effects in reducing degeneration by mobilizing the zygapophyseal joints exchange of fluid with absorption, improve arterial and venous circulation that help to remove waste and improve circulation, improve tone ROM ,posture and alignment. General effects include postural correction by supporting systems ,limbs ,muscles. Improve respiratory mechanism that restore the flow of CSF,effect psychosomatic component make balance between mind and body,neurohormonal facilitation by improving autonomic function improvement and proper functioning,propioreception improvement by self-correcting poor posture, fascia work in coordinated chain manner and help to decrease the energy consumption.
