Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

To compare effect of myofascial Release versus post facilitation stretch in term of pain ,range of motion and disability in chronic non specific low back pain in patients.

. 24 individuals were evaluated, with low back pain for more than 12 weeks and aged between 12 and 65 years. The current used in the lumbar region of the participants was of the tetrapolar interferential type and the stimulation mode was the automatic vector, carrier of 4,000 HZ, modulation frequency (AMF) of 50 HZ, sweep frequency of SWEEP of 20HZ. The assessment of pain and functionality was performed using the data collection instrument, the Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS), Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) and the Owestry Disability Questionnaire (ODQ) respectively. The present study demonstrates that treatment with interferential current promotes chemical improvement in participants, which opens up new perspectives on the use of this therapeutic approach.

Low back pain (LBP) is the most frequent complaint encountered in clinical practice. Exercises and manual therapy prescription are common physical therapy treatments prescribed for the patients presenting with chronic low back pain. The interventions will establish the future direction for practitioners in choosing the manual therapy or repeated exercises as effective prescription and provide a basis for future research

The study will be Randomized controlled trail, Subject diagnosed with low back pain meeting predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups. Pre assessment will be done using pain and disability as subjective measurement through Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) & modified Oswestry disability index and the lumber range by goniometer as objective measurement. One group is subject will be treated with therapeutic neuroscience education and core stability exercise and second group is core stability exercise. Each subject received 18 sessions with 3 treatments per week. Post treatment values recorded after the session.After data collection from defined study setting,data will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International University,Lahore

Postural control methods are impaired in people with chronic low back pain. While the person maintains balance with pain relief, fear of movement and pain increase with loss of balance. It was found that externally focused exercises are more effective than internal focus exercises in terms of motor control and motor learning. To investigate the place of externally focused balance exercises in conservative treatment of target low back pain. For this purpose, approval was obtained from the clinical research ethics committee of Kırşehir Ahi Evran University, Faculty of Medicine, with the decision numbered 2022-18/163.

The goal of this trial is to compare the effects 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency (CRM) with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) versus only PNF in chronic low back pain patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of pain. Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of disability. Participants will in the experimental group will be treated with a combination of: 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency and, PNF intervention Participants will in the control group will be treated only using 1. PNF intervention (identical to experimental group) Researchers will compare experimental and control group to see if there are differences in reduction of pain and disability.

In a cross-over, open-label, randomized, controlled trial, the investigators aim to determine if the daily activity level in patients with LBP can be increased via feedback from an app, connected to a wearable sensor of physical activity.

The purpose of the study to investigate the effect of muscle energy techniques on functional abilities of patients with chronic discogenic unilateral sciatica and to explain it from a physiological and functional point of view

The present project aims to investigate the effects of lumbar strengthening training combined with photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) on functional and psychological aspects in young and older adults with chronic non-specific low back pain. We hypothesized that lumbar strengthening training combined with PBMT should promote greater improvement on functional and psychological variables compared to strengthening training alone (placebo PBMT).

The investigator assessed 54 patients with chronic lumbar back pain treated with FIT Therapy (far infrared technology) patch. The criteria for inclusion were chronic lumbar back pain due to overstress or to contracture and patients over 30 years old. Patients with tumors, infections, neurological and metabolic diseases were excluded. Three different types of FIT Therapy patches (F4, F3 and the placebo) were used according to the different power of action. The patches were self-removed after 5 days. At day 8 new ones were applied for other five days and at day 14 patients were dismissed. Every single patient was assessed during the study using the VAS pain scale, the Roland Morris questionnaire for quality of life and the range of motion (ROM).
