| AIM: To investigate the effects of lumbar stabilization exercises on pain severity, functional disability, and physical performance aftertwo weeks following radiofrequency denervation in patients with lumbar facet joint syndrome (LFJS).MATERIAL and METHODS: Thirty-nine patients diagnosed with LFJS and had radiofrequency denervation were assigned tostudy and control groups. The study group (n=20) received a six-week stabilization exercise program and was informed aboutspine biomechanics, while the control group (n=19) received only informations about spine biomechanics. Pain severity with visualanalogue scale, perceived disability with Oswestry disability index, physical performance with physical performance tests and gaitspeed test were applied before and after radiofrequency denervation, and after six weeks of intervention program.RESULTS: Despite the similar improvements were shown in terms of all outcomes in both groups following radiofrequencydenervation (p>0.05), the improvements were more in favor of study group after six week intervention program (p<0.05).CONCLUSION: These results indicate that radiofrequency denervation is effective in improving the pain, disability, and physicalperformance in patients with LFJS and this effect is further enhanced by the stabilization exercises following this procedure.Adding stabilization exercises to radiofrequency denervation yielded positive outcomes and these exercise are strongly advised inphysiotherapy and rehabilitation program. |
