Abstract
This study aimed
t o investigate the correlation of the pain intensity, function disability and core
endurance in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain (CMLBP) classified according to
Saliba’s postural classification system (SPCS). A total of 60 patients with age ranged from 20 50
years with CMLBP were recruited and randomized into one of the six postural classification groups
(10 patients per group). The visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were
used to measure pain severity and functional disability respectively. Core endurance tests were used
to measure core muscles endurance. Pain intensity significantly correlated with function disability in
vertical/posterior and anterior/anterior group (r= 0.724, p<0.05 ), while negative correlation exi sted
between pain and core endurance in vertical /posterior group (p< 0.05). Furthermore, among CMLBP
patients, there were significant positive correlations between pain and function disability (p< 0.05),
and negative correlations between pain and core endur ance (p< 0.05), as well as functional disability
and core endurance (p< 0.05). P ain and functional disability seemed to be highly correlated in
vertical/posterior group and negative correlation existed between pain and core endurance in the
same group. While among CMLBP patients, pain is strongly associated with functional disability, while both pain and functional disability are inversely related to core endurance, particularly in the
vertical/posterior group.
