Active clinical trials for "Back Pain"

This will be a placebo controlled, randomized, double-blind, comparative effectiveness study, in which we patients are enrolled during an emergency department (ED) visit for acute radicular low back pain (LBP) and followed by telephone two and seven days later. Patients will be randomized to receive an oral dose of dexamethasone for 2 consecutive days or placebo during an ED visit for acute radicular LBP. Every patient will receive a 7 day supply of ibuprofen and a low back pain education session.

This study examines the effect of a 12-week intervention of physiotherapy with integrated Virtual Reality (VR) on 120 patients with complex chronic low back pain. Patients in the intervention group will receive physiotherapy with integrated VR, while patients in the control group will receive physiotherapy as usual. The (cost-)effectiveness of this intervention will be investigated at 3 months and 12 months follow-up.

The study aimed to investigate the efficacy of core strengthening and intensive dynamic back exercises on pain, muscle strength, endurance, and functional disability in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.

The intelligent moxibustion robot is applied to the clinical treatment of low back pain to verify its effectiveness and safety

This study is a First in Human, prospective, multi-center clinical study intended to collect safety and performance information for the Spinal Stabilization Technologies PerQdisc® Nucleus Replacement System and procedure concurrently following a successful discectomy using a minimally invasive posterolateral (MIPL) approach. Patients that are at least 21 years or older, presenting with symptomatic radiculopathy from a focal lumbar disc herniation that requires surgical decompression will be included in this study.

Low back pain (LBP) is highly prevalent that causes significant pain and disability. Core muscles are important for LBP. One of them is gluteus maximus, but effect of power's program for this muscle and its role in LBP is lacking in literature, so this study aims to study the effect of power's program of gluteus maximus on LBP.

An evaluation study of the impact of the Axomove Therapy® medical device on subacute or chronic low back pain patients leaving rehabilitation centres to facilitate self-rehabilitation. A prospective, randomized, open-label, multicentre study whose main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Axomove Therapy Medical Device on disability reduction (Oswestry disability index score) patients with subacute or chronic low back pain requiring rehabilitation.

Non-specific chronic low back pain (NS-CLBP) is defined as lumber pain persisting for longer than three months, in absence of a suspected pathology or any specific cause. A specific diagnosis of low back pain cannot be obtained in approximately 80% patients with low back pain, indicating that patients with low back pain are often diagnosed with non-specific low back pain and these are the majority of the individuals with low back pain that present to physiotherapy In other cases the cause may be a minor problem with a disc between two spinal bones (vertebrae), or a minor problem with a small facet joint between two vertebrae. There may be other minor problems in the structures and tissues of the lower back that result in pain. Objective of this study is to compare the effects McGill stabilization exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique on pain, range of motion and functional disability in chronic non-specific Low back pain.

The goal of this interventional study is to test the effects of trigger point dry needling to the low back in a healthy population. The main aims are to answer: Is there a change in sensitivity to experimental pain after trigger point dry needling To determine if there is an association between demographic and psychological factors and immediate changes in pain sensitivity after receiving trigger point dry needling. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups a dry needling group or a sham dry needling group. The dry needling group will receive trigger point dry needling to the lumbar spine. The sham dry needling group will receive needling to the lumbar spine with a sham needle which does not penetrate the skin. In other words, researchers will compare an intervention group and a sham group to see if dry needling has an immediate change in pain sensitivity in response to experimentally induced pain.

This randomized control trial study aims to compare the effect of core stability exercises and cognitive tasks with general exercises and cognitive tasks on pain, disability, and postural control strategies of chronic non-specific low back pain patients. The main questions are: Are core stability exercises and cognitive tasks more effective than general exercises and cognitive tasks in reducing the pain of chronic non-specific low back pain patients? Are core stability exercises and cognitive tasks more effective than general exercises and cognitive tasks in reducing the disability of chronic non-specific low back pain patients? Are core stability exercises and cognitive tasks more effective than general exercises and cognitive tasks in improving postural stability parameters of chronic non-specific low back pain patients? Are core stability exercises and cognitive tasks more effective than general exercises and cognitive tasks in improving stabilogram diffusion analysis parameters of chronic non-specific low back pain patients? This study is designed to apply two exercise protocols on two groups of 17 people with non-specific back pain. Group A will receive core stability exercises along with cognitive tasks, and group B will receive general exercises along with cognitive tasks.
