Active clinical trials for "Back Pain"

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of fluoroscopy guided lumbar facet joint injection versus ultrasound guided injection in patients with low back pain due to facet syndrome.

The SPLIT project evaluates the implementation of a stratified model of care for people with low back pain patients who consulted primary care.This involves evaluating the process of implementation as well as patient level outcomes. The project consists of two phases: First, a before-after study comprising two sequential but independent cohort studies will be conducted to compare the outcomes and cost-effectiveness of current practice with the SPLIT stratified model of care. Second, an implementation strategy will be developed based on the results of a survey regarding determinants of current practice, and two focus groups concerning the barriers and facilitators for the implementation of the SPLIT stratified model of care.

The current guidelines for non-specific CLBP, recommend a conservative approach with exercise therapy, as first line treatment. Endurance and resistance training are two examples of recommended exercise therapies. However, it appears that none is recommended as superior over the other.

The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a full-scale trial to explore if there is a change in intervertebral movement following a course of manual therapy in patients with acute non-specific low back pain (NSLBP). Research Questions: In patients with acute NSLBP, does lumbar intervertebral movement change following a course of manual therapy? In patients with acute NSLBP, do those who respond to manual therapy (established by patient reported outcomes measures) have different intervertebral movement to those who do not?

Changing patients' position in the bed after TACE can decrease the level of back pain without increasing the amount of bleeding and hematoma,bring patients some comfort and relieving abdominal bloating, increase patients' satisfaction.

This cross-over study intends to use consecutive days of active versus sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to enhance descending inhibition and look at resulting clinical effects in people with low back pain.

This study will investigate implementation of a process to enhance Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) adherence to limit unwarranted variability in initial treatment decisions with high potential for providing more effective and efficient physical therapy management for patients with neck and low back pain.

The aim of this study is to find the effectiveness of exercise therapy and manipulative therapy for patients with maigne's syndrome. It is a Randomized clinical trial and convenient random sampling is to be used with an inclusion criteria of patients having maignes syndrome without having neurological signs and specific spinal pathology like disc lesion ,malignancy or inflammatory disease and any other major medical conditions .

This Randomized Controlled trial is designed to observe the effect of Sphinx Yoga (Salamba Bhujangasana) on low back pain and variation in the associated physiological parameters that help explain the beneficial effects of yoga, among healthcare providers of Karachi Pakistan. Healthcare providers with LBP (determined as per the baseline assessment) will be recruited and Substance P and Beta Endorphins will be assessed at baseline and after 3 months. The subjects with LBP will be determined based on the scores of the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire, Numerical Pain Rating (NPR) scale, Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) and Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) work subscale. Subjects meeting eligibility criteria will be randomly allotted to intervention and control groups. The study outcomes will be monitored in subjects of both groups at baseline and after 3-month follow-up (post-interventional).

Specific stabilization training targeting the deep trunk muscles has shown good effect in the rehabilitation of Low Back Pain (LBP) in young female TeamGym (TG) gymnasts. However, if this training can prevent LBP in this young population remains to be investigated. The aim of the present study was to investigate if a specific lumbar stabilization program can reduce and prevent LBP in young female TG gymnasts.
