| Résumé : | Objectives To identify which treatment modalities are described in the literature for the conservative management of ITBS (1) and to identify research gap (2). Databases The following electronic databases were searched: MEDLINE/Pubmed, Embase, Scopus and Cochrane Library. Eligibility criteria The included studies had to report at least one conservative treatment on a human population suffering from ITBS. Results 98 studies reached the included criteria and seven categories of treatment were identified, i.e., stretching, adjuvants, physical modalities, injections, strengthening, manual techniques and education. Only 32 studies were designed as original clinical studies within which only 7 were randomized controlled trials, while 66 were review studies. Education, injections and medications as well as stretching were the most cited therapies. However, there was a clear discrepancy design. For example, stretching modalities were reported in 31% and 78% for clinical and review studies, respectively. Conclusions There is an objective research gap in the literature concerning conservative ITBS management. The recommendations are mostly based on expert opinions and review article. More high-quality research studies should be performed for enhancing the ITBS conservative management understanding. |
