Intervention(s)
|
|
Subjects with low back pain and healthy controls were assessed in three consecutive days: their lumbar multifidus muscle and transverse abdominal muscle thickness were measured by ultrasound at rest and during contraction. During measuring the thickness of transverse abdominal muscle, subjects were in supine position, and the measurements were taken at rest and while draw in their anterior abdominal wall. The measurement of lumbar multifidus muscle was taken while subject were in prone position at rest and while lifting the contralateral arm. The assessment lasted about 10 minutes per subject. Two raters, blinded to each other's measurements, assessed all the subjects on all 3 days
