Active clinical trials for "Radiculopathy"

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of different rates of Caudal Epidural Steroid Injection (CESI) on clinical outcomes of the patients.

The present study aims to compare directly the efficacy of two noninvasive neurostimulation techniques : repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct electrical current of the motor cortex in patients with chronic lumbar radiculopathy on pain intensity.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of Intravenous (IV) BG00010 (Neublastin) in improving pain in painful lumbar radiculopathy participants when administered 3 times per week for 1 week. The secondary objectives of this study in this study population are as follows: To explore the duration of the effect of BG00010 in improving pain; To explore the dose response curve on pain reduction; To assess the safety and tolerability of BG00010; To assess the serum exposure to BG00010.

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Neuromultivit (solution for injections) in treatment of vertebrogenic radiculopathy L5, S1 in comparison with standard therapy. The patients are randomised into two groups: standard therapy group and standard therapy plus Neuromultivit group.

This study is designed to investigate the effectiveness of pregabalin (Lyrica) on nerve pain caused by degenerative neck problems. Pregabalin is a new drug registered for use in nerve pain worldwide

The main objective of this study is to determine whether interventional treatment (i.e. epidural steroids), conservative therapy, or the combination, is superior for cervical radiculopathy. One hundred and sixty eight patients with radicular neck pain will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive either cervical epidural steroid injections (CESI), non-interventional management with physical therapy and medications, or a combination of the two. The first follow-up visit will be at 1-month. In patients who obtain some benefit but continue to report significant pain, either a 2nd CESI can be done, the patient's medications can be adjusted, or both in the combination group. Those patients who fail to obtain any benefit will exit the study to receive another treatment or alternative care. The second follow-up visit will be at 3-months. Similar to the 1-month follow-up, the doctor may elect to change nothing in patients who are satisfied, adjust medications, schedule the patient for another CESI, or do both in the combination group. Patients who fail to obtain any benefit can exit the study to receive alternative treatment. The final follow-up visit will be at 6 months.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether pregabalin is effective in reducing the pain in patients who present with radicular pain due to a herniated disc, spinal stenosis or failed back surgery syndrome.

62 patients with postlumbar surgery syndrome were randomized and divided into two groups. Transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TFESI) was applied to the TFESI group (n=31), and caudal epidural steroid injection (CESI) was applied to the CESI group (n=31). The age of the patients involved in this study ranged from 18 years old to 65 years old

This is a 2-arm parallel pragmatic randomized controlled trial that will compare non-pharmacological treatment with pharmacological therapy for lumbar disc herniation.

The purpose of this study is to compare two different approaches (midline and parasagittal) during interlaminar lumbar epidural steroid injection (LESI), and to verify the role of concordant pressure paresthesia occurring during the LESI in determining outcome. The investigators are planning to include 100 patients, undergoing LESI for radicular low back pain. This will be single-blinded randomized study. Every patient will receive the same medication we would use regardless of participating in the study. The patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, based on the approach: Group I (50 patients) - will get LESI using midline (MIL) approach. Group II (50 patients) - will get LESI using parasagittal interlaminar (PIL) approach.
