Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

This study was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of mulligan mobilization technique on balance, pain and functionality in patients with chronic low back pain and to compare it with exercise.37 patients aged between 18-65 who applied to Fındıkzade Medipol Hospital were included in the study. The individuals participating in the study were divided into two groups, 18 control and 19 mulligan groups, according to the randomization table. The intervention was performed 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Conventional physiotherapy and exercise program accompanied by a physiotherapist were applied to the control group, and conventional physiotherapy and mulligan mobilization technique were applied to the mulligan group. Conventional physiotherapy methods included ultrasound (US), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), and hotpack. The patients were evaluated with TecnoBody Static Balance Device, algometer, electrogoniometer, visual analog scale, Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire before and after the treatment.

The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes on the treatment of pain and disability of postpartum low back pain. The current study will compare the use of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes. The current study is novel in a way that there is limited literature about treating postpartum low back pain with physical strengthening exercises. These two methods will be employed to see if they improve ranges along with accompanying pain and disability.

The aim of the study is determine the effects of lumbopelvic manipulation on fatigue, pain and disability in chronic low back pain patients. In this randomised clinical trial, lumbopelvic manipulation group was compared with conventional therapy group. Tools used in the study are numeric pain rating scale ,oswestry low back pain index and rating of fatigue scale.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of segmental control exercises program on hamstring peak torque, pain, function, and ROM in patients with non-specific low back pain.

To determine the effects of Eldoa and Mckenzie exercises in posture. To determine the effects of Eldoa and Mckenzie exercises in ROM.

Lumbar surgery is the most common treatment for chronic disabling low back pain with degenerative disc disease. There are few elements to objectively evaluate the improvement of the motor control after surgery and the motor adaptation capacities of the patients. The impact of lumbar surgery on complexity in this painful context has never been studied. Theoretically, the restriction of mobility imposed by lumbar surgery should limit the subject's adaptive capacities (of one or more lumbar segments) and thus reduce complexity. Nevertheless, improvement in pain intensity levels could allow the patient to find better motor adaptation capacities, necessary for a positive evolution in the long-term. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution of gait complexity in chronic low back pain patients pre- and post-surgery. If surgery improves the adaptability of walking through an antalgic benefit exceeding the induced stiffness, the complexity of walking should be superior after surgery. This is a proof-of-concept study in which the study investigators hypothesize that measuring complexity by fractal analysis during a walking task will show the increase in gait complexity induced by lumbar surgery at 3 and 6 months after surgery.

This study is a randomized clinical trial to determine the effects of myofascial release therapy versus endurance training of trunk extensor muscles on pain, disability and muscle endurance in patients with mechanical back pain. A sample of 24 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 12 patients. Group A will receive myofascial release therapy and conventional physical therapy while group B will endurance training of trunk extensors and the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include a hot pack, back care advice, and postural modifications. The session will be around 40 to 45 min for each patient with four sessions per week. A total of four-week treatment regime will be given to the patients and assessment of the patient's pain, disability, and endurance with NPRS (numeric pain rating scale), Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire and Sorenson Test will be done at the baseline, after the completion of treatment at pre interventional and post interventional to observe the long-term effects. The data will be analyzed using SPSS.

In this controlled, follow-up study the effects of immersion in 42℃ radon, natrium, calcium, bicarbonate content thermal-mineral water on clinical parameters and quality of life of patients with chronic low-back pain is evaluated. The participants in the intervention group are treated with balneotherapy plus usual care, while in the control group only with usual care. The planned participants number is 120. Follow up period is 3 months.

This study will involve treating low back pain associated with nerve injury with oral delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) or whole plant cannabis for eight weeks. Research subjects will consume either oral Δ9-THC (dronabinol), vaporized 3.7% Δ9-THC/5.6% CBD, or placebo. An analysis will then be determined to assess the risk--benefit ratio of dronabinol and vaporized 3.7% Δ9-THC/5.6% CBD .

The goal of this study is to compare the effect of aquatic exercises (AEG) to the aquatic exercises plus aerobic training (deep-water running) (AEDWRG) on functional status and pain in patients with specific chronic low back pain.
