Active clinical trials for "Back Pain"

Identification of the effects of yoga, stabilization exercise and aerobic exercise approaches on physical and cognitive variables in individuals with low back pain.

Randomized, 2-arm parallel group clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness of a self-administered Virtual Reality program for the treatment of chronic lower back pain compared to a placebo VR program.

Non-specific low back pain upsets individuals of all age gathering and is a most significant provider to illness load everywhere on the world. Overseeing rules prescribe emergency to locate the uncommon instances of low back pain that are brought about by actually genuine pathology, thus need demonstrative work-up or proficient arrangement, or both. Since non-specific low back pain doesn't have a known pathoanatomical cause and treatment accentuations on diminishing in agony and its meanings. To determine the impacts of Graston technique in patients with non-specific low back pain. This examination was Quasi Experimental study and on the basis of inclusion standards, 20 patients were involved. PNRS and ODI used to collect the data. Graston tool was used to treat patients 3 times in a week according protocol for 6 weeks' treatment plan with extensions bised exercises protocol following pattern of APTA. The data was analyzed using SPSS 21.

Low back pain is a challenging condition, with a lifetime prevalence of up to 84%. The estimated prevalence of chronic non-specific low back pain is of approximately 23%. Although pain is a sensory experience triggered by a peripheral stimulus, psychosocial factors influence on its perception and on the risk of chronification. Chronic Low Back Pain imposes a substantial socioeconomic burden to patients, families, and healthcare systems worldwide. It is a multifactorial condition, characterized by a combination of physical, psychosocial and occupational factors. We have planned two working hypotheses: (1) coordinating several healthcare professionals is feasible to manage chronic non-specific low back pain through telematics multidisciplinary approach; (2) telematics multidisciplinary approach improves the quality of life of patients with chronic non-specific low back pain and in whom conservative treatment has failed. Hence, we aim to assess the feasibility and effect of telematics multidisciplinary approach in patients suffering from chronic non-specific low back pain and who have not improved with conservative treatment. Patients will be randomized to the telematics multidisciplinary approach (Experimental Group) or to the Standard of Care (Control Group). Scheduled and periodic telematics multidisciplinary sessions will be performed. Each session will consist of an integrated program that combines rehabilitation (i.e., group-based exercise program), psychological treatment and social work sessions. Standard of Care, after conservative treatment failure, depends mainly on the physician in charge's discretion and on the patients' preferences. An exploratory analysis will be performed. The results of this clinical trial will provide evidence that a scheduled telematics multidisciplinary approach will improve the quality of life of these patients and empower them to be more autonomous. Likewise, telematics multidisciplinary approach is feasible to manage chronic non-specific low back pain in patients unresponsive to conservative treatment. Consequently, these patients are less likely to wander through different medical specialties seeking for a solution to their condition, presumably avoiding ineffective back surgeries. The results will also highlight the importance of patients playing an active role in their own treatment to successfully manage chronic non-specific low back pain.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and kinesiology taping (KT) that are additional treatment to the conservative treatment for the lumbar region and hamstrings and connective tissue thickness in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP).

This study aims to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation and supervised stabilization exercises on pain, functionality, kinesophobia and quality of life in individuals with non-specific chronic low back pain. 72 individuals who voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be included. This study divides the patients in three groups: the supervised group: face-to-face stabilization exercises are applied, the telerehabilitation group: treatment through online meetings, and the control group: patients will do home-based exercises that prescribed by physiothrerapist. Evaluations will be made by the same physiotherapist. The researcher who will make the measurements in this study will not know which treatment program was applied to the participants. In this study, The same stabilization exercises will be applied in three different groups. Ten different stabilization exercises will be applied to the participants. Exercises will be performed for 20-30 minutes in each session, three times a week, for four weeks in total, twelve sessions. Clinical and demographic data of the 72 people participating in the study will be taken before treatment. Participants will also fill out questionnaires before and after the treatment that involve; the Oswestry Disability Index to measure(ODI) daily life activity limitations; the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for assessing the intensity of pain; Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia(TSK) to assess fear of movement; and the Short Form(SF-36) in order to assess self-perceived health-related quality of life. Statistical analysis is going to be used in this research through the SPSS 20.0 package program.

The aim of this research is to find and compare the effect of Bowen's technique and Muscle energy technique on intensity of pain, active knee extension, limited forward bending and active straight leg raise on hamstrings tightness in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain. A randomized control trial is conducting at Railway General Hospital, Rawalpindi and Al-Ain Hospital, Wah Cantt. The sample size is calculated through open epi is 24. The subjects are divided in two groups, 12 subjects in Bowen's technique group and 12 in Muscle energy technique group. Study duration is of 6 months. Sampling technique applied is non-probability convenient sampling for recruitment and group randomization using sealed envelope method. Only 18-35 years individuals of hamstrings tightness with chronic non-specific low back pain are included. Tools used in the study are Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), Active knee extension, Sit and reach test, Active straight leg raise and Goniometer. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 21.

The main objective of this study is: • To evaluate the immediate hypoalgesic effect of an aerobic exercise session of different intensities in patients with chronic low back pain; The secondary objective is: • To explore whether pain intensity, level of physical activity, functionality, catastrophizing, kinesiophobia, anxiety and depression interfere with the immediate hypoalgesic effect of exercise.

Primary Objective: To assess the efficacy of the infrared therapy patch (ITP) FIRTECH for treating participants suffering from mild to moderate acute low back pain. Secondary Objectives: To assess the efficacy of ITP FIRTECH on participant disability To assess the efficacy of ITP FIRTECH on the degree of participant mobility To assess the safety of ITP FIRTECH

Introduction: Nonspecific low back pain is the most common cause of visits to medical personnel and is the largest cause of absenteeism in the world. (1), Nonspecific low back pain accounts for 85% of low back pain, notably affecting quality of life and working life (2), There is a 50-70% probability that a person will have low back pain during their life ( 3), lumbago produces 300,000 years lived with disability (ADL), being the first burden of disease in Chile, surpassing hypertensive heart disease and depression (4). There are many therapeutic approaches to the management of nonspecific low back pain, including high-speed, low-amplitude spinal manipulations (5). This technique consists of applying a short and rapid force at the level of the joint that is restricted, in order to restore normal joint mobility. The physiological effects of manipulations are not sufficiently studied, but some authors (6) (7) suggest that the nervous system is the mediator of the effects of spinal manipulation. Among non-pharmacological interventions, numerous clinical guidelines recommend the use of therapeutic exercise for low back pain (8), including a wide variety of types of recommended exercises, the most traditionally recommended being aerobic exercises, exercises that involve stretching postures of the back. vertebral musculature, strengthening and strength exercises (9) and central stabilization exercises (10). Recently, the effects of inspiratory muscle and diaphragm training exercises in patients with low back pain are being investigated (11). The application of an elastic bandage (12) in the lumbar area generates a proprioceptive signal through the skin, producing analgesia and a feeling of support in the area. Objectives: To compare the effects of different therapeutic approaches in combination with spinal manipulation. Design and method: Single-blind randomized clinical trial Results: Significant differences are expected before and after treatment and differences between groups. Conclusion: The aims of this study is to demonstrate that High speed and low amplitude spinal manipulation plus other conservative treatment is a valid therapeutic strategy for the management of nonspecific low back pain
