Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

The tape will be applied on the lumbar area bilateralemten to the spine without creating any tension. Possible variation in the autonomic nervous system is assessed in the reaction of the pupils. A kinesiology tape was used as a placebo tape and the magnetic tape was used in a randomized experimental way.

Introduction. The lumbar region is one of the locations with the highest incidence of injuries in the paddle players. The crossed hands myofascial technique is used to release the restrictions of the thoracolumbar fascia, improving its mobility. The electrotherapy technique of TENS consists in the application of a low frequency current for the recovery, capitalization and oxygenation of the muscle, thus improving mobility and pain. Aim. To evaluate the efficacy of an intervention by electrotherapy combined with myofascial therapy, in the lumbar region, for a mobility improvement in older paddle-tennis federated players. Study design. Randomized, multicenter, simple blind, clinical trial with follow-up period. Methods. 30 players paddle will be assigned to the two study groups: experimental (intervention through therapy myofascial and electrotherapy) and control (intervention by electrotherapy). The intervention will have a duration of 4 weeks, with 2 sessions per week, lasting 15 minutes. There will be three evaluations: pre-intervention, post-intervention and follow-up. The variable of study is the mobility of the lumbar spine in the movements of flexion and extension (assessed by the employment of tests of Schober and Fingertip-to-floor). The analysis of normality be performed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnof, and in case of homogeneity of the groups is used in parametric tests: test t-student for paired data (difference between the different assessments) and ANOVA of mean repeated (intra-and intersujeto). Expected results. Improvement of the mobility of the lumbar spine in the movements of flexion and extension.

Objective of study is to evaluate the procedural success rate, clinical effectiveness, and heath-economic profile using the Intercept Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System in adult subjects with chronic low back pain in the post-market setting

This study evaluates the potential association between pain catastrophizing thoughts and the ability to dampen pain via endogenous descending inhibition. Half of the participants are persons with chronic low back pain and the other half are age and gender-matched controls

A phase 2 randomized clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of SPARC1401 at three dose levels in patients with acute low back pain

Evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment of nonspecific pain in the lower back (LBP) is currently largely based on the patient's subjective feelings. The purpose of this study was to use passive medical radiometry (MWR) as a tool for assessing the effectiveness of various treatment methods in patients with acute and subacute nonspecific LBP. Patients with pain assessment on a visual analogue scale (VAS) from 6 to 10 points were divided into 2 groups: Group I included patients with pharmacological, syndrome-oriented treatment (n = 30, age 54.9 ± 2.3 years); Group II is a combination pharmacotherapy with self-controlled energy-neuro-adaptive regulation (SCENAR) (n = 25, age 52.8 ± 2.5 years). The investigators will compare that the addition of SCENAR therapy (Group II) will be able to potentiate the analgesic effect of the treatment using VAS. the investigators will confirm that the thermal asymmetry visualization allows to identify the area of pathological muscle spasm and/or inflammation in the projection of the vertebral-motor segment.

This study will seek to determine if 1) the manual unloading test is reliable, and 2)if the immediate response to traction can be determined by using a simple unloading test in standing. The study wil be completed in two parts: 1) a small pilot sample (n=10) to asses both intra and inter tester reliability, and 2) a consecutive sample of 30 patients with low back pain which does not travel below the knee. All subjects will rate their pain on a 100 mm line both at rest and in their most painful direction of movement. A therapist will then unload the patients spine to determine if they feel any relief. All subjects will then undergo a 15 minute bout of intermittent lumbar traction, 30 sec on, 10 sec off at up to 50% body weight. Following traction, all subjects will again rate their pain on a 100 mm line. Subjects will be grouped by response to the initial manual unloading test and assessed for within and between group differences. The study hypothesis is that the manual unloading test is reliable, and that responders to mechanical traction can be accurately identified using a manual unloading test.

This study aimed to determine the efficacy of an eight-week specific exercise programme in reducing self-reported episodes and intensity of LBP, as well as modifying some of the identified risk factors for LBP, in children.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of long-term treatment with HZT-501.
