Changes in Lateral Abdominal Muscle Thickness During the Abdominal Drawing-In Maneuver in Those With Lumbopelvic Pain
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 10/16/09
Teyhen DS et al. – Individuals with unilateral lumbopelvic pain demonstrated a smaller increase in thickness of the transversus abdominis (TrA) muscle during the abdominal drawing–in maneuver (ADIM). This finding provides an element of construct validity for the use of the ADIM for assessing TrA muscle thickness in those with unilateral lumbopelvic pain. However, both groups demonstrated a symmetrical side–to– side change in TrA and IO muscle thickness despite the symptomatic group having unilateral symptoms. Further, the authors detected a preferential change in TrA muscle thickness during the ADIM in both groups.
