Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

The aim of this study is to characterize the distribution of pain phenotypes in people with chronic low back pain and to determine the effects of pain phenotypes on pain severity, functional status and quality of life. Participants will be examined to determine the type of pain and questions will be asked to identify the effects.

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of education to keep the abdomen relaxed versus contracted during Pilates exercises in patients with primary chronic low back pain. Participants will be randomised into two groups that will be treated with Pilates exercises for 12 weeks. The control group will receive guidance on the specific activation of the center of strength (the powerhouse), while the experimental group will receive guidance to perform the exercises in a relaxed and smooth way. Primary outcomes will be pain intensity and disability 12 weeks post randomisation.

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a leading disability globally. Exercise therapies are one of the most commonly prescribed treatment options for CLBP. Specific breathing techniques have been shown to enhance brain-based pain modulation and autonomic nervous system balance; these changes have been shown to improve clinical effectiveness in terms of pain management and psychological factors compared to general exercise. However, no previous studies have added a specific breathing technique protocol to an evidence-based exercise program for CLBP.

This study uses clinical trial and implementation science methodology to specifically assess the effectiveness of yoga into the management of chronic low back pain (cLBP) within the Cleveland Clinic Employee Health Plan. The study will use a type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation design, which tests a clinical intervention while collecting data on implementation. Studying and implementing evidence-based, non-pharmacologic interventions is an important strategy for improving pain management and reducing opioid use disorder.

Chronic Non-Specific Low Back Pain is characterized as a tension, soreness and stiffness. Various studies, defined MET as a manual medicine treatment procedure that involves the voluntary contraction of the subject's muscle in a precisely controlled direction, at varying levels of intensity, against a distinctly executed counterforce applied by the therapist.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety of early inpatient rehabilitation after lumbar spine surgery. Participants are assigned to therapy groups C (low) - A (high) intensity and receive standardized multimodal rehabilitation for 3 weeks. Groups are compared in terms of safety, disability impairment as well as pain. Timing of rehabilitation is considered.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy of an online educational program for physical therapists to change back pain beliefs. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the effect of an online educational program to change beliefs about the management of back pain in physical therapists? A total of 106 physical therapists will be recruited for this study. Participants will be randomized into two groups: intervention and control groups. The intervention group will receive a 6-week online educational program including recommendations from international clinical practice guidelines for the management of back pain. The control group will not receive any intervention. The outcomes of this trial include beliefs about management of back pain and imaging exams and will be assessed at baseline and 6 weeks after randomization.

The primary objective of the study is to determine the effects of vertical sitting versus supine lying traction on pain, range of motion, and function in patients with chronic radicular low back pain (CRLBP). CRLBP is one of the major types of lower back pain and causes significant disability and reduction in quality of life in the human population. The study will be a randomized controlled trial and the study setting will be Al-Barkat Hospital Gojra . A total of 30 participants will be selected randomly employing a non-probability convenient sampling technique. Two experimental groups will be made. Group A will be given vertical traction in a sitting position and Group B will be given traction in supine lying. Both groups will receive baseline physiotherapy treatment which includes Hot-pack, TENS, and ultrasound. The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) will be used as outcome-measuring tools for pain intensity and functional disability respectively. An inclinometer will be used to measure ROM. Measures will be taken at (0, 4th, 8th, and 12th week). Data will be analyzed by using parametric/non-parametric tests after assessing the normality.
