Does Movement Impairment Precede Low Back Injury?
By: Brookbush Institute

Course Description

This course presents four studies Increased Trunk Muscle Latency May Cause, Rather than Result From, Low Back Pain; Trunk Muscle Weakness as a Risk Factor for Low Back Pain, Relationship Between Hip Muscle Imbalance and Occurrence of Low Back Pain in College Athletes and Low Back Pain in College Athletes: A Prospective Study Correlating Lower Extremity Overuse or Acquired Ligamentous Laxity with Low Back Pain and determining study design and level of evidence of each of the studies is the description of the course. The study details are below: -Increased Trunk Muscle Latency May Cause, Rather than Result From, Low Back Pain - Research review: Study investigating trunk muscle recruitment and the risk of future low back pain and onset of low back pain. Synopsis, summary, strengths, weaknesses, impact on practice, relevance and practical application. -Trunk Muscle Weakness as a Risk Factor for Low Back Pain - Research review: Summary and practical appliaction from a study investigating the relationship between movement impairment and future low back pain. Synopsis, summary, strengths, weaknesses, impact on practice, relevance and practical application. -Relationship Between Hip Muscle Imbalance and Occurrence of Low Back Pain in College Athletes - Summary of research demonstrating hip muscle impbalance increases the risk of developing low back pain in college athletes. -Low Back Pain in College Athletes: A Prospective Study Correlating Lower Extremity Overuse or Acquired Ligamentous Laxity with Low Back Pain - This study demonstrates that acquired lower extremity ligamentous and overuse injuries are likely to increase the risk of developing low back pain.
