The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the combined effects of kinesiotaping and core stability exercises on pain, functional disability, and fear-avoidance beliefs in female patients with sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction (SIJD) is a recognized cause of low back pain, contributing to approximately 15-30% of cases. It results from abnormal joint mechanics, instability, or restricted motion, and often presents with persistent pain radiating to the gluteal or thigh region. Women are more predisposed due to increased joint mobility, hormonal changes, and biomechanical stress during pregnancy.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kinesiotapping and Core Stability Exercises | Experimental | I-bands applied over bilateral SIJ (50% tension), diagonal I-bands across SIJ (75% tension). Applied weekly for 6 weeks. Core Stability Exercises: Bridging (5-10 sec hold, progressive reps) Wall squat (10 sec hold, progressive reps) Knee to chest (progressive reps) Prone arm opposite leg raises (progressive reps) Back extension (progressive reps) |
|
| Core Stability Exercises (CSE) only | Other | Core Stability Exercises: Bridging (5-10 sec hold, progressive reps) Wall squat (10 sec hold, progressive reps) Knee to chest (progressive reps) Prone arm opposite leg raises (progressive reps) Back extension (progressive reps) |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) | Description: The NPRS is a simple, quick, and widely used tool in both clinical and research settings for musculoskeletal pain conditions. It demonstrates excellent test-retest reliability, with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ranging from 0.79 to 0.96 | 6th week. |
| Modified Oswestry Disability Index (MODI) | Description: The MODI is a widely used and validated tool for assessing disability related to low back and pelvic girdle disorders. It has demonstrated excellent test-retest reliability, with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ranging from 0.88 to 0.97 | 6 weeks |
| Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) | The FABQ assesses patient beliefs with regard to the effect of physical activity and work on their Low Back Pain. It exhibits excellent test-retest reliability, with intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.82 | 6 weeks |
