the effect of age on result of straight leg raising test in patients suffering lumbar disc herniation
background: ninety percent of all people sometimes during their lives experience low back pain, and 30-40% develops radicular leg pain with the sciatica characteristics. although for clinical diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation (ldh) straight leg raising (slr) test in 85-90% of cases indicates ldh, but in our practice with ldh patients this test is frequently negative despite radicular leg pain...
متن کاملThe effect of age on result of straight leg raising test in patients suffering lumbar disc herniation and sciatica
BACKGROUND Ninety percent of all people sometimes during their lives experience low back pain, and 30-40% develops radicular leg pain with the sciatica characteristics. Although for clinical diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) straight leg raising (SLR) test in 85-90% of cases indicates LDH, but in our practice with LDH patients this test is frequently negative despite radicular leg pain ...
متن کاملCombined measurement of nerve root blood flow and electrophysiological values: intraoperative straight-leg-raising test for lumbar disc herniation.
STUDY DESIGN A total of 15 patients with lumbar disc herniation at the L5-S1 disc level who underwent microendoscopic discectomy were examined. The nerve root blood flow and electrophysiological values were measured during an intraoperative straight-leg-raising (SLR) test. OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationships between nerve root blood flow changes and the electrophysiological values duri...
متن کاملNormal inter-limb differences during the straight leg raise neurodynamic test: a cross sectional study
BACKGROUND The straight leg raise (SLR) neurodynamic test is commonly used to examine the sensitivity of the lower quarter nervous system to movement. Range of motion during the SLR varies considerably, due to factors such as age, sex and activity level. Knowing intra-individual, inter-limb differences may provide a normative measure that is not influenced by such demographic characteristics. T...
متن کاملThe sensitivity of the seated straight-leg raise test compared with the supine straight-leg raise test in patients presenting with magnetic resonance imaging evidence of lumbar nerve root compression.
OBJECTIVE To compare the sensitivity of 2 methods of performing the straight-leg raise (SLR) test, one in the supine position and the other in the seated position, in patients presenting with signs and symptoms consistent with lumbar radiculopathy. DESIGN A cohort study in which patients with signs and symptoms consistent with lumbar radiculopathy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results ...
