Relación de la capacidad funcional con el deterioro del sistema de movimiento en personas con dolor lumbar

Abstract

The present research work was carried out with the objective of establishing the relationship between functional capacity and the deterioration of the movement system in people with low back pain, since physiotherapy professionals need an evaluation tool to identify the functionality of the person. with low back pain in activities of daily living This study was developed using a quantitative, descriptive, correlational and crosssectional approach, with the participation of 60 people who attend the Equilibrio physical well-being center (36 men and 24 women), with a general average age of 41.8 years (33 years in men and 33 in women). The evaluation of the deterioration of the movement itself that allows to classify in lumbar syndromes and the functional capacity by means of the application of the Oswestry functional disability questionnaire was carried out for the only time. In the evaluation of the deterioration of the movement system, the lumbar syndromes with the greatest presence were: extension 43.3%, and flexion 28.3%, in terms of functional capacity 54 people (90%) presented minimal functional limitation, while , in the relationship between functional capacity and lumbar syndromes, P values of 0.025 were obtained with extension, 0.03 rotation - flexion and 0.015 with rotation - extension. The study demonstrated that participants with extension syndrome have greater functional capacity compared to rotation-flexion and rotation-extension syndromesxiv that presented lower functional capacity. Furthermore, there is no relationship between functional capacity and flexion and rotation syndromes.
