Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

The aim of the study is to determine the effect of muscle energy technique versus myofascial release on cervical and lumbar pain in premenopausal women with fibromyalgia

To compare the effects of home based stabilization exercises and kegel exercises on low back pain, disability and quality of life in postnatal females.

The dissertation will focus on the possibilities of using pressure sensors during physiotherapy care. A single-blind randomized study will be conducted on a sample of at least 40 probands of working age with chronic LBP in the age range of 30-65 years. The following exclusive criteria are established: signs of serious spinal pathology (red flags), severe musculoskeletal trauma in the last year, vestibular, visual or neurological dysfunction affecting stability, ongoing pregnancy or breastfeeding, acute respiratory disease, cognitive dysfunction leading to misunderstanding of instructions and severe cardiac or internal disease. Inclusive and exclusive criteria will be evaluated by a rehabilitation doctor during a comprehensive examination before the start of therapy. All probands will undergo six-week outpatient therapy once a week. The intervention group will be equipped with an OhmTrak device for home self-therapy and instructed in its correct use at least 5 times a week. The control group will receive identical outpatient therapy and instruction in self-therapy, except they will not have access to the OhmTrak device. Before the start and at the end of the six-week therapy, all probands will be blindly evaluated for the quality of activation and use of intra-abdominal pressure with the DNS Brace device. At the same time, the Oswestry Disability Index questionnaire will be used to subjectively evaluate the probands before and after a series of therapies. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the possibility of using pressure sensors to improve the effect of physiotherapy.

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of mulligan straight leg raise versus slump stretching on pain, disability and hip range of motion in patient with low back pain. . Convenient sampling technique will be used to enroll the patients. Patients will be inquire into basis of pre formulated eligibility criteria. Written Consent will be taken from each patient before starting interventional sessions. Sample size of this study will consist on the participants who will qualify for both inclusion an exclusion criteria. Both groups will receive ultrasonic therapy and hot pack therapy as baseline treatment. Group A will receive mulligan straight leg raise and group B will receive slump stretching. The assessment of patients will be done at baseline, 4th and 8th week. The outcomes from patients will be calculated by using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Goniometer and ODI. The comparison between pre-treatment and post-treatment data will be done after 8th week. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 25.

Low back pain is a common disorder that every individual in the society is likely to meet throughout his/her life. Low back pain lasting longer than 12 weeks is defined as chronic low back pain and causes serious disability in the community. Conservative, pharmacological, interventional and surgical treatment options are available in its treatment. In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of ultrasound-guided deep paravertebral periforaminal ozone injection treatment on physical examination, functional independence, quality of life and pain scores in patients with chronic low back and leg pain and to compare it with transforaminal epidural steroid injection treatment.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether the primary spine practitioner (PSP) model of care will lead to improvements in patient outcomes, as compared to usual care, based on change in patient-reported PROMIS Pain Interference and Physical Function from baseline to 3 months in patients aged 18 years and older with a primary complaint of low back pain (LBP).

We aim to compare the effectiveness of MFR and exercise therapy on mobility and function by investigating the effectiveness of the Myofascial Release Technique (MFR), which we will apply to the muscles we choose related to the facial system connection in participants with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and low back pain.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about improving the quality of treatments for people who have chronic low back pain. Participants will complete interviews with Duke researchers at four different time points: the beginning of the study, at 3 months, at 6 months, and at 9 months. Participants will be asked to use a mobile app and a headset that are designed to train the brain to be more relaxed. Participants will use the mobile app for 10 minutes at a time, four times a week for three months. The study team will also check in with participants about app use six times throughout the study, via phone or video conference.

The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of aquatic therapy versus standard care on paraspinal and gluteal morphology and function in individuals with chronic low back pain.The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of aquatic therapy versus standard care on a) paraspinal and gluteal muscle size, composition (e.g., fatty infiltration) and b) lumbar and gluteal muscle strength in individuals with chronic LBP? Is aquatic therapy more effective than standard care to improve pain, function and psychological factors (e.g., kinesiophobia, catastrophizing, anxiety, and depression)? Is using a digital application "play the pain" feasible to monitor pain levels and the activities that participants used to cope with pain? Participants will be assigned to either the aquatic therapy group or standard care group where they will undergo a 10-week intervention including two 60-minute session per week.

The main objective of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy of a 6-week therapeutic exercise program, performed with virtual reality (VR) manipulating visual proprioceptive information during all lumbar movements in the different therapeutic exercises (experimental group), on pain and disability, kinesiophobia, range of motion (ROM), catastrophizing, quality of life, and physical fitness in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain compared to the same therapeutic exercise program without VR (control group).
