Active clinical trials for "Back Pain"

Determine the efficacy of lumbar medial branch neurotomy by radiofrequency and cryoablation in patients with chronic low back pain

Double arm pivotal study to evaluate the Neurolyser XR as a non-invasive treatment of axial chronic low back pain

Prospective, open-label, 1:1 randomized controlled trial of Basivertebral nerve (BVN) Ablation arm vs Standard Care Control for the treatment of vertebrogenic chronic low back pain (CLBP). Participants in the the BVN Ablation arm will receive radiofrequency ablation of the BVN using the Intracept procedure for treatment of up to 4 vertebral bodies (L3 to S1). Participants in the Standard Care Control arm will continue on non-surgical standard care and will be offered optional crossover after 12 months of follow-up with follow-up of 6 months post crossover treatment. The study had a pre-specified Interim Analysis with stopping rules for superiority when approximately 60% of the randomized participants have completed their 3-month primary endpoint study visit. An independent Data Safety Management Board (DSMB) reviewed the interim analysis results and recommended stopping enrollments for superiority and offering early crossover to the control arm participants.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of D-cycloserine versus placebo in relieving the signs and symptoms of patients with chronic lower back pain.

Prospective, double blinded, randomized, clinical study investigating the effects of high frequency SCS over exiting nerve roots at T9 for the treatment of chronic back or back and leg pain.

This study will measure the effects of interactive, whole-body video games on movement behavior in people with chronic low back pain.

This study is a patient-blinded 2-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing the effectiveness (in the short and long term) as well as total healthcare costs of a CFT+ (a combined physiotherapist/psychologist intervention) pathway compared with interdisciplinary pain management pathway (usual care) for patients with chronic low back pain referred to interdisciplinary pain treatment. The primary aim of this pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate if a physiotherapy-led CFT pathway that includes psychologist support (CFT+) with the option of additional usual care (if needed) is superior to the currently recommended interdisciplinary pain management pathway (usual care) in reducing disability at 12 months in patients with severe cLBP. In addition, an economic evaluation will investigate total health care costs of the two pathways at 12 months. In addition the study will explore changes in pain intensity, quality of life, thoughts and beliefs about back pain, and analgesic consumption in patients randomized to the CFT+ pathway compared with patients randomized to the interdisciplinary pain management pathway.

This study will compare the effect of dry needling and manual pressure in patients having low back pain in terms of pain and disability. There will be two groups ; experimental and control. Half of study group will receive dry needling session along with hot pack. Half of study group will receive manual pressure technique along with hot pack.

Low back pain is currently considered to be the most common cause of disability.When low back pain occurs sensitivity of body increases which decreases overall body activity.Physical inactivity negatively effects recovery from chronic low back pain.Patients with chronic low back pain experience psychological anxiety and depression which leads to fear of pain and movement.There are various treatment options for chronic low back pain.But most treatment options deal with biomedical aspect of disease.Pain neuroscience education deals with psychological aspect of disease.By combining both treatment options we will be able to evaluate the combined biopsychosocial aspect of treatment.This study will mainly focus on the education of patients regarding neuroscience be hind their chronic low back pain.

Chronic low back pain is among the most common health problems seen in primary care, and is responsible for disability and absenteeism in our country. In most cases, it is attributed to a non-specific cause and classified as non-specific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP). Taking into consideration that multidimensional programs usually present more effectiveness reducing pain than unimodal programs, the current research investigates the role of unexplored multidimensional program (exercise and mindfulness) in NSCLBP. The primary aim of this project is to determine the effectiveness of a supervised exercise program (intervention 1) and a supervised exercise program + mindfulness (intervention 2) on pain, disability, trunk muscle endurance/strength, quality of life and gait parameters in patients with NSCLBP.
