Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the Pilates method, performed online, in individuals with chronic low back pain. This is a randomized controlled trial consisting of two arms.

Chronic low back pain is one of the leading causes of disability associated with significant health care costs. One possible management of chronic low back pain of facet origin is neurotomy-radiofrequency (NT-RF) intervention. Currently, to determine whether a patient is eligible for NT-RF, two positive block tests are required. Clinical examination with a homolateral extension-rotation-tilt maneuver of the spine (ERI maneuver) would have the potential to identify subjects with pain of facet origin. It could therefore be a simple and effective diagnostic tool in the evaluation of a patient with low back pain and help in the decision whether or not to perform a test block by local infiltration of the zygapophyseal joint prior to an NT-RF procedure. The purpose of this longitudinal, prospective, observational, single-center study is to evaluate the performance of the combined extension-rotation-lateral tilt maneuver (ERI maneuver) in predicting the response to neurotomy-radiofrequency intervention in patients with chronic low back pain. The included patients will answer 5 questionnaires, in addition to the usual clinical data: Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD) questionnaire, Quality of life questionnaire EQ-5D-5L, Brief Pain Inventory - French version: Questionnaire Concis de la Douleur (QCD), Functional Impotence Scale for Low Back Pain: The Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C)

This study is aimed to carry out the Turkish version validity and reliability of the Low Back Activity Confidence Scale.

This is a randomized and blind clinical trial, whose objective is to evaluate the effects of transcranial stimulation by direct current associated with exercises based on the pilates method on the performance of patients with chronic low back pain.

The aim of this study is clinical trial to investigate the effect of Radial Extracorporeal Shock wave therapy in patients with sciatica and low back pain caused by post laminectomy scarring. the study will answer the following question: 1. what is the effect of Shock Wave Therapy on low back pain and sciatica caused by post-laminectomy fibrosis? patients in the study group will receive radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy and conventional physical therapy program (TENS, electric heating packs, and McKenzie back exercises).

The study is searching for the correlation between low back pain(LBP), physical performance, urinary incontinence and physical activity levels in women. Lower physical performance, more frequent urinary incontinence and less physical activity are expected in women who have LBP.

This study investigates the effect of hospital-based intensive non-surgical treatment in musculoskeletal patients admitted to an integrated hospital that offers both complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and conventional medicine treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if a wearable back exosuit can make it safer and easier for workers who bend, lift, and lower objects in an industrial setting. Many studies have shown that wearable back exoskeletons or exosuits can provide helpful forces making a person's back muscles work less. It is believed that exosuits can lower a person's level of workplace effort and fatigue, making it less likely for them to have back pain at work. Back exosuits could be a solution to make a job easier, but how well they work in the real-world over a long period of time is unclear. The investigators want to know if workers who wear a back exosuit during the workday will have lower rates of lower back pain or injury than those who are not wearing a back exosuit. The investigators also want to know how well exosuit technology integrates into the workplace (for example, how this technology improves or hinders job performance). Participants will be randomized into an exosuit group or control group. Participants in the exosuit group will be given a back exosuit that they can use as much as they want at work. All participants will complete surveys monthly. Researchers will compare the exosuit group to the control group to see if using a back exosuit in a workplace can reduce a person's risk and impact of low back injury or pain. The investigators also want to see if a back exosuit impacts job productivity and if participants find the exosuit becomes useful or bothersome over time.

This research study will help determine whether a medication called duloxetine can improve back pain. It is well documented that many participants who come to the ER with acute low back pain still have low back pain 3 months later. The investigator team will attempt to determine whether duloxetine can help prevent this.
