Rehabilitation of Patients With Modic Changes in the Lumbar Spine
Low Back PainThe purpose of this study is to compare patients with low back pain (LBP) and Modic Changes from The Backcenter Funen, Ringe: To compare the effect of two types of non-operative treatments: A. exercise and advice to be physically active B. restitution and advice not to overload the spine To investigate if the results of the treatment are influenced by gender, age, smoking, and physical load.
The Right Intervention for the Right Patient
Low Back PainComplicated and expensive interventions are used to treat unspecific low back pain and the intervention is not always targeted the patients specific problems.It is therefore not surprising that a large fraction of unspecific low back pain patients do not respond very well to the usual biopsychosocial intervention. We would therefore like to identify the patients specific problems regarding the patients biomedical, psychological, and social needs.

Low Back PainThis study will investigate the long-term safety and efficacy of a fixed dose of tanezumab 5 mg and 10 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) seven times at 8 week intervals. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety of tanezumab 5 mg and 10 mg administrated SC every 8 weeks (7 administrations). In addition, the study will evaluate the long term analgesic efficacy of tanezumab 5 mg and 10 mg SC administered every 8 weeks (7 administrations).

Making Better Lives: Patient-Focused Care for Low Back Pain (LBP)
Chronic Low Back PainHip Ostearthritis11 moreBack pain is a huge problem for millions of Americans, including nearly 11 million Veterans. Our older Veterans suffer the most. Citizens spend billions of dollars, yet consistently get poor results. Primary Care Providers are often tasked with diagnosing and treating Chronic Low Back Pain, even though they are often undereducated in the field. These PCPs often use advanced imaging, usually MRIs to guide care. These images often show degenerative disc disease and other common pathologies in older adults, even those who are pain free, which can lead to misdiagnosis and treatment. The investigators believe that Chronic Low Back Pain is a syndrome, a final common pathway for the expression of multiple contributors that often lie outside the spine itself. For example, hip osteoarthritis, knee pain, and even anxiety could all lessen back pain if addressed and treated probably. Investigators will measure participants' low back pain-associated disability with the well-validated RMDQ. Data will be collected at baseline and monthly via telephone. The investigators hypothesize that veterans who receive PCCET will experience significantly greater reduction in low back pain-associated disability than those who receive IAUC at six months. Investigators will also measure participants' low back pain with the 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale for Pain. Data will be collected at baseline and monthly via telephone. The investigators hypothesize that veterans who receive PCCET will experience significantly greater reduction in low back pain than those who receive IAUC at six months. The goal of this study is to compare patients treated with usual care, which usually starts with imaging, versus patients who are treated by trained geriatricians who know how to recognize and address 11 key conditions that commonly drive pain and disability in older adults. The investigators believe that older patients who receive care tailored to their needs by educated PCPs will ultimately have less back pain and, more importantly, better quality of life.
Myofascial Massage in the Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain
Chronic Low Back PainThe purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of an approach that combines massage therapy with elements of neurocognitive rehabilitation such as motor imagery and the words of the physiotherapist compared to a traditional massage therapy in reducing pain in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) and to evaluate if and how the pain reduction is linked to the interoceptive awareness and which is the patient's ability to relax through the measurement of the hearth rate variability (HRV).

Open-Label, Extension Study to Evaluate the Safety of Hydrocodone Bitartrate Extended-Release Tablets...
Low Back PainThis is a 6-month, nonrandomized, open-label extension study to assess the long-term safety of hydrocodone bitartrate extended-release (ER) tablets in patients with moderate to severe chronic low back pain who require continuous opioid treatment for an extended period of time. To be eligible for Study 3104, patients were required to have completed the entire double blind treatment period on study drug (either placebo or hydrocodone bitartrate ER tablets) through week 12 of Study 3103 (NCT01789970) and to have met the entry criteria for Study 3104.
