A STUDY TO COMPARE THE EFFICACY OF ULTRASONIC PULSED WAVE & ISOTONIC EXERCISE VS CONTINUOUS WAVE ALONG WITH ISOMETRIC BACK EXERCISE PROGRAM ON WORK RELATED SUB-ACUTE LUMBOSACRAL PAIN IN INDIAN HOUSE WIVES

Background: Subacute lumbosacral pain is becoming one of the leading causes of disability among adults worldwide. Therapeutic ultrasonic is one of the most often utilized electro-physical modalities in clinical settings and is often used by physiatrists to treat LBP. Likewise, isometric and isotonic back protocols are nearly more effective ways to strengthen the hip and back muscles. Objective: to observe the benefits of isotonic or isometric protocols combined with various modalities of US treatment for individuals with subacute lumbosacral pain, particularly in Indian housewives. Methodology: The Division of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at ANS Hospital conducted this randomized control experiment from September 2025 to November 2025. The research cohort included of female patients aged 25 to 55 who diagnosed with sub-acute LBP while they were in the hospital. Sixty-six individuals with sub-acute LBP who met the selection parameters were included in the research population. They were separated into two groups, designated Group A and Group B. There were 33 patients in each group. Twenty-two patients i.e 11 from each group were lost over follow-up. 44 patients' worth of data were used for the final study. In contrast, patients in group A received pulsed US along with isotonic protocols, patients in group B received constant US with isometric exercise, and ADL instructions permitted to both groups. Conclusion: Isometric and isotonic protocols, together with US therapy, are important in the treatment of subacute lumbosacral pain. At the end of the trial, Group-A made a substantial improvement over Group-B. Keywords: sub-acute lumbosacral pain, US therapy, isometric exercise, isotonic exercise, VAS, ODI.
