Active clinical trials for "Back Pain"

Pre-clinical studies in rats suggest that D-cycloserine (DCS) is effective in the management of chronic neuropathic pain. This pilot study will attempt to determine the effect of D-cycloserine in the treatment of chronic low back pain. Other aims of this study are to determine the safety of D-cycloserine in the treatment of chronic low back pain and to determine which pain measurement scales are best at measuring the efficacy of treatment.

This study will compare the effectiveness of yoga classes, exercise classes, and a self-care book in the management of pain and function for people with low back pain.

This study tests the effectiveness of different treatments for the three most commonly diagnosed conditions of the lower backbone (lumbar spine). The purpose is to learn which of two commonly prescribed treatments (surgery and nonsurgical therapy) works better for specific types of low back pain. Low back pain is one of the most widely experienced health problems in the United States and the world. It is the second most frequent condition, after the common cold, for which people see a doctor or lose days from work. In this part of the study, we will treat patients with spinal stenosis (a narrowing of spaces in the backbone that results in pressure on the spinal cord and/or nerve roots) with a type of surgery known as posterior decompressive laminectomy or with nonsurgical methods. This study does not cover the cost of treatment.

The Management of Low Back Pain in the Emergency Department Worldwide, low back pain is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders, and it constitutes one of the primary complaints in emergency departments. A review of the literature reveals studies comparing ibuprofen to various agents (such as paracetamol, nimesulide, acetaminophen), and these studies suggest the use of ibuprofen due to its similar or superior efficacy and its safety profile. However, there is a lack of randomized controlled double-blind comparisons between the commonly recommended single doses of ibuprofen, which are 400 mg and 800 mg. Therefore, the objective of our planned study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of ibuprofen in the forms of 400 mg and 800 mg, which can be administered as a single dose, in the treatment of acute mechanical low back pain, as recommended in all guidelines.

To compare effect of myofascial Release versus post facilitation stretch in term of pain ,range of motion and disability in chronic non specific low back pain in patients.

. 24 individuals were evaluated, with low back pain for more than 12 weeks and aged between 12 and 65 years. The current used in the lumbar region of the participants was of the tetrapolar interferential type and the stimulation mode was the automatic vector, carrier of 4,000 HZ, modulation frequency (AMF) of 50 HZ, sweep frequency of SWEEP of 20HZ. The assessment of pain and functionality was performed using the data collection instrument, the Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS), Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) and the Owestry Disability Questionnaire (ODQ) respectively. The present study demonstrates that treatment with interferential current promotes chemical improvement in participants, which opens up new perspectives on the use of this therapeutic approach.

Low back pain (LBP) is the most frequent complaint encountered in clinical practice. Exercises and manual therapy prescription are common physical therapy treatments prescribed for the patients presenting with chronic low back pain. The interventions will establish the future direction for practitioners in choosing the manual therapy or repeated exercises as effective prescription and provide a basis for future research

The study will be Randomized controlled trail, Subject diagnosed with low back pain meeting predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups. Pre assessment will be done using pain and disability as subjective measurement through Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) & modified Oswestry disability index and the lumber range by goniometer as objective measurement. One group is subject will be treated with therapeutic neuroscience education and core stability exercise and second group is core stability exercise. Each subject received 18 sessions with 3 treatments per week. Post treatment values recorded after the session.After data collection from defined study setting,data will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International University,Lahore

The goal of this trial is to compare the effects 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency (CRM) with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) versus only PNF in chronic low back pain patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of pain. Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of disability. Participants will in the experimental group will be treated with a combination of: 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency and, PNF intervention Participants will in the control group will be treated only using 1. PNF intervention (identical to experimental group) Researchers will compare experimental and control group to see if there are differences in reduction of pain and disability.

In a cross-over, open-label, randomized, controlled trial, the investigators aim to determine if the daily activity level in patients with LBP can be increased via feedback from an app, connected to a wearable sensor of physical activity.
