Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a clinical entity that can be defined as back pain with duration of more than 12 weeks. Chronic low back pain is associated with restriction in daily physical activities that ultimately leads to disuse atrophy of muscles. Moreover, weak and atrophied muscles around the lumbar spine cause immense immobility and recurring low back pain in these patients. The objective of this study will be to determine the effect of retro walking on pain, physical function and flexibility in chronic non-specific low back pain. This study will be a randomized controlled trial and will be conducted in physiotherapy department in DHQ hospital Nankana Sahib. The study will be completed in time duration of six months after the approval of synopsis and consecutive sampling technique will be used. 40 subjects will be divided in two groups. Group A will follow retro walking and conventional treatment while group B will follow only conventional treatment. Data will be collected by all participants before 1st session after 6th session and at the end of 12th session by using NPRS, MODI, sit and reach test and Modified schobber's test. Data will be analyzed by SPSS-25.

This study compared the effects of mechanical and manual traction on pain, disability and lumbar spinal curvature in patients with discogenic low back pain

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of atelocollagen in the management of chronic low back pain with sarcopenia due to degenerative changes.

The main objective of the study is to determine effects of latissimus dorsi stretching on functional disability related to chronic low back pain

The main objective of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the lumbar nerve root stimulation with ultrasound-guided percutaneous electrolysis versus the electrical dry needling of trigger points in patients with chronic low back pain.

The overall purpose of the study is to investigate effect of Digitally Supported Home Exercises (DSHE) in different groups for which digitally supported interventions could be beneficial. Balance is altered in individuals with low back pain and requires intervention Thus, the investigators will focus on the effect of DSHE to improve postural balance.

The purpose of this study is to find out the additional effect of global re-education program with hamstring stretching in patients with low back pain.

The term non-specific low back pain refers to the painful symptoms located in the lumbar region, which is delimited between the lower margin of the ribs and the lower limit of the buttocks

It was a randomized clinical trial conducted to determine the effects of patient education manual on pain, range of motion and function in patient with chronic low back pain at Salamat hospital Satellite Town Gujranwala in patients with 6-month chronic low back pain who were willing to follow patient education manual. Patients were assessed for pain, disability due to backpain and lumbar ranges, at baseline, 2nd, 4th and 6th week of intervention. The SPSS 20.0 version was used to analyse data. Tests of normality were executed that whether data was normative or non-parametric, based on which outcomes were compared either using independent samples t test or Mann-Whitney test.

Low back pain (LBP) is pain localized below the costal margin and above the inferior gluteal folds. It may be associated with radiculalgia. Non-specific LBP refers to LBP without specific problems such as infection, inflammation, vertebral fracture or cancer. Chronic LBP is a LBP lasting more than 3 months. The causes of LBP remain unknown. While there are recommendations for physiotherapy, the protocol of care is not well defined. New therapeutic models centered on neurophysiology are replacing biomechanics-based models. New programs centered on patient education and a biopsychosocial approach are emerging. Research has shown the possible involvement of fascia in LBP and the interest of manual fascia therapies in the treatment of LBP. To date, there are no studies that have shown the effects of fasciatherapy in the treatment of non-specific LBP. In France, many physiotherapists use this type of treatment and more specifically fasciatherapy. French physiotherapists say that it may improve their management of LBP. Studies on fasciatherapy have highlighted the effects of fasciatherapy in the management of fibromyalgia pain, the treatment of anxiety, malaise and the improvement of body perception. They show the multidimensional actions of fasciatherapy and support its clinical, functional and psychosocial evaluation for LBP. Fasciatherapy is part of the manual therapies that target their action on the fascial system. This "patient-centered" technique is a biopsychosocial and humanistic approach to health. The manual and gestural approaches of the fascia are part of the Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions field. Fasciatherapy involves manual and gestural interventions, with the objective of restoring the contractile, elastic and movement properties of the fascia in order to provide relief, improve function and quality of life for patients. In France, fasciatherapy is not part of recommendations and is not recognized by the Conseil National de l'Ordre des Masseurs-Kinésithérapeutes. This study aims to assess the effects of fasciatherapy on LBP and to evaluate how it could contribute to its management for physiotherapists. It is a cluster randomized trial conducted on 180 subjects. Intensity of pain (measured with VAS) is the primary outcome. The secondary outcomes are the impact of LBP on daily life (Dallas Pain Questionnaire), on quality of life (SF-12 questionnaire), on anxiety (STAI questionnaire), and the evolution of drug consumption. The study will take place in France and the treatment structures will be the practitioners' practice.
