Sleep Ergonomics in Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of sleep ergonomics guidance given by physiotherapist on pain and disability in patients with low back pain. In this randomized controlled trial participants are assigned either into the intervention or the control group. The intervention group will receive detailed instruction on sleeping ergonomics whereas the control group will only be instructed to avoid painful sleeping posture. The initial hypothesis is that in the intervention group pain and disability will decrease more compared to the control group.

The Safety and Efficacy of 5% Lidocaine Patch and Flurbiprofen Patch for Relieving Acute Low Back...

Acute Back Pain

This is a prospective, randomized, single blinded, two-arm, head to head study. The purpose of this study is: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of 5% lidocaine patch and flurbiprofen patch for treatment of acute low back pain. Determining the effect of the 5% lidocaine patch and flurbiprofen patch for improving functional disabilities and in reducing pain resulting from acute low back pain. Efficacy will be determined by the level of pain relief (as measured by the Numerical Rating Scale, NRS), decrease in analgesics, improved quality of life (as measured by the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire, ODQ, and core outcome measures index questionnaire, COMI), pain interference with function (as measured by the Brief Pain Inventory-Interference scale, BPI-QoL), Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire-2(SF-MPQ-2), general health status (as measured by the EQ5D), Overall treatment effect (OTE), physical exam from baseline up to 1-Months.

Hip Posterolateral Complex Strengthening in Patients With Chronic Nonspecific Low Back Pain: a Randomized...

Low Back Pain

Chronic nonspecific low back pain is an important health condition with a high prevalence worldwide and it is associated with enormous direct and indirect costs to the society. Clinical practice guidelines show that many interventions are available to treat patients with chronic low back pain, but the vast majority of these interventions have a modest effect in reducing pain and disability. A biomechanical approach that has been raised is that a weakness of the hip abductors, extensors, and lateral rotators musculature (posterolateral complex - PLC) would lead to excessive contralateral pelvic drop during weight-bearing activities such as walking, running, climbing up or downstairs, generating an overload in the lumbar area. Although the strengthening of the hip PLC is largely used in clinical practice for treating patients with hip and knee injuries, there is still a lack of evidence regarding patients with low back pain. Therefore, questions remain about the efficacy of the hip dynamic stabilization as an additional intervention to conventional treatment in a well design trial with statistic power.

Low Back Pain

Objectives: The primary objective will be to investigate the additional effect (immediate and after one-month follow up) of pain neuroscience education (PNE) to Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT) on primary outcomes of pain intensity and disability in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain (CLBP).

Aromatherapy Randomization of Pain Management in Adults

Back PainBack Pain2 more

Pain control for acute isolated back pain and sciatica is a nebulous and often illusive task in the emergency department, and a challenge face everyday by emergency medicine physicians. Standard pain control practices are poorly defined in practice and in the literature. NSAIDs alone have been shown to be less-than-adequate controllers of acute back pain warranting emergency department visits and have little bearing on long-term pain control or recovery. Opioids are additionally poor long-term pain controllers and are gaining public controversy for their overuse. Modalities such as acupuncture, massage, thermotherapy, and spinal manipulation have been described in the literature with minimal evidence. Aromatherapy for pain control has been recently demonstrated as effective in the management of burn-dressing changes as well as post-operative pain management in children. It is an inexpensive and easily employed modality not yet explored in the emergency department for acute pain such as isolated back pain and sciatica. The authors propose to study Rosa damascena oil aromatherapy for the control of isolated acute back pain in the emergency department compared to almond oil placebo. The authors hypothesize that Rosa damascena will provide additional pain relief, as a known analgesic, when compared to almond oil aromatherapy. The authors will identify patients presenting to the Stony Brook University Hospital (SBUH) Emergency Department (ED) with acute isolated back pain and sciatica and test this hypothesis using a blind randomized approach. Patients included will be those above the age of 18 with isolated, non-traumatic back pain and sciatica lasting less than 2 weeks. Primary outcomes measured will include decrease in pain severity on a visual analog scale after 30 minutes of aromatherapy and again at 60 minutes post-therapy. Secondary outcomes measured will include patient satisfaction, need for clinician-determined rescue medications, and minimal clinical importance difference of pain control. Aromatherapy will be provided with both essential oil concentrated Rosa damascena and almond extract delivered via soaked-cotton ball 20-30 cm from the patient's face.

Comparison of Ketoprofen Gel to Placebo in Mechanical Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain

Mechanical low back pain is one most important emergency department presentations of patients seeking pain relief. Although parenteral pain killers such as opioids, non-steroidal anti-inflamatuar drugs and paracetamol are used commonly in these patients, application of analgesics in gel forms might be an reasonable alternative to these drugs with fewer adverse effects.
