Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Athletic pubalgia is estimated that 5% to 18% of athletes present to their physician with activity-restricting groin pain. Groin pain is particularly common in sports that require athletes to perform repetitive kicking, twisting, or turning at high speeds, such as soccer, football, basketball, track and .eld, tennis, and hockey., Defined as a weakness of the posterior inguinal wall without clinically palpable hernia, the hallmark symptom of a sports hernia is severe lower, the hallmark symptom of a sports hernia is severe lower abdominal, pubic, or groin pain with exertion. sports hernia results from injury to muscular and/or fascial attachments to the anterior pubis, there is disagreement as to the exact anatomical area of disruption. Tears associated with an athletic pubalgia may involve any or all of the following: the transversalis fascia at the posterior inguinal wall, the insertion of the distal rectus abdominis, the conjoined tendon at its distal attachment to the anterior-superior pubis, and/or the external oblique aponeurosis. Although some believe that an athletic pubalgia involves the rectus abdominis tearing near its distal insertion, operative reports .nd that only 6% to 8% of patients undergoing repair for a sports hernia have an isolated tear to the rectus abdominis. AIM OF THE STUDY: An experiment of the effectiveness maitland manipulation therapy with conservative physiotherapy for the management of athlets with athletic pubalgia. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY: To analyze the effectiveness of maitland manipulation therapy with conservative physiotherapy for the management of athelet with athletic pubalgia. MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY: MATERIALS USED: Treatment Coutch, Assesment Chart, Pillow, Vas, Goniometry. METHODOLOGY: RESEARCH DESIGN: The design that is used for this study is Quasi experimental design. STUDY SETTING: The entitled study was conducted at Therapeutic gymnasium, Nandha colege of physiotherapy, Erode and Erode sports club, Erode. The subjects for this study were volunteers of the college students of the Nandha group of institutions. SAMPLE & SAMPLING METHOD: The subject was selected based upon the purposive random sampling technique, sample of 20 patients were taken. STUDY DURATION : The study was carried out for a period of 8 weeks of duration and each patient was trained according to which group he /she belong in this study. CRITERIA FOR SELECTION: INCLUSIVE CRITERIA: Patient Diagnosed As Athletic Pubalgia, Age group 17-25, Patient in acute stage, Both sex are included, Patient willingness to participate the study. EXCLUSIVE CRITERIA: Palpable inguinal hernia, Any medical red flag signs and symptoms, Lumbar radiculopathy, Prior surgery to the pelvic or lumbar regions. POPULATION: All the athletic pubalgia patients who fulfill the selection criteria are considered as population of the study. RESULTS: The pre and post test value were assessed for pain and range of motion. The “t” values were calculated for pain and range of motion. The paired “t” test were 32.41 and 15.85 respectively and they were more than table value 2.15 for 5% level of significance at 19 degrees of freedom. The paired “t” test values have shown that Maitland manipulation with conventional physiotherapy war more effective than conventional physiotherapy for athletic pubalgia. CONCLUSION: From the results of this study, though regular physiotherapy shows improvement in pain and range of motion. Based on ‘t’ values, it could be seen that there is significant difference between calculated values and table values. Its shows greater significance with more effects in Maitland Manipulation with conventional Physiotheraphy. Through the results, null hypothesis is rejected and alternate hypothesis is accepted and the study could be concluded that There is significant difference in effectiveness of Maitland Manipulation with conventional Physiotheraphy in Athletic pubalgia patients.
