Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

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.

Aim: To compare the effectiveness of Mat Pilates with General Exercises in treating patients with nonspecific acute low back pain. Novelty: Pilates, typically performed with specific equipment, has shown clinically significant treatment effects in people with chronic low back pain. Recent guidelines recommend patients remain active during episodes of low back pain; however, evidence regarding the type of exercise to perform is limited. Mat Pilates is a type of Pilates exercise that does not require complex equipment. Evaluating the effectiveness of two simple exercise methods (Mat Pilates and General Exercises) can help expand intervention options for patients with acute low back pain, enabling them to choose an exercise they enjoy most.

This randomized controlled pilot study will be evaluating an app, MORT-LBP app (ETH-02K), owned by EverEx, Inc., to examine safety and efficacy in individuals with chronic lower back pain.

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is the most expensive cause of workrelated disability: it causes the highest number of years lived with disability. The most severe and debilitated CLBP patients often have comorbidities such as overweight and obesity. Despite the growing body of scientific literature pointing towards the close interaction between overweight/obesity and CLBP, few treatment programs for people with CLBP nowadays take overweight into account. Therefore this study will examine the added value of a behavioral weight reduction program (changes in diet, behavior and physical exercise) to current best evidence rehabilitation (pain neuroscience education plus cognition-targeted exercise therapy) for overweight or obese people with CLBP. An international, multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing a behavioral weight reduction program combined with pain neuroscience education and cognition-targeted exercise therapy versus pain neuroscience education and cognition-targeted exercise therapy alone, will be conducted. The primary outcome is pain and the primary endpoint was chosen at 12 months follow-up; secondary outcomes include health care use and daily functioning (see detailed description of outcomes for an overview of all secondary outcomes). If the promising results of the proof of concept study are corroborated, the new intervention will have a high socio-economic impact, including an annual health care cost reduction of €66 million in Switzerland, and €60 million in Flanders, and is expected to increase life expectancy in the long term.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with aerobic exercise in non-specific low back pain patients. The main question aims to answer: • Which are the effects of tDCS treatment combined with aerobic exercise compared to Sham tDCS combined with aerobic exercise in non-specific Low Back Pain? Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires and they will receive treatments as tDCS or Sham tDCS and aerobic exercise (treadmill walking). Researchers will compare a group who is treated with a combination of tDCS and aerobic exercise versus a group receiving placebo tDCS and aerobic exercise to see the effects on pain intensity, pressure pain, disability, kinesiophobia, quality of life, catastrophism, Heart Rate Variability and cortical excitation.

To compare between immediate effect of SNAG and mulligan lion position in range of motion (ROM) , pain, functional ability and kinesiophobia on patients with nonspecific low back pain.
