Chronic Headache and Chronic Backache Following Unintentional Dural Puncture at Delivery Room.

Parturient Who Underwent Epidural Anesthesia During Which an Unintentional Dural Punctur OccurredParturient Who Develop a Postdural Puncture Headache1 more

he study is a telephone questionnaire. The study will include 400 women, 100 in each group. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of chronic and chronic back pain following PDPH accidental dural puncture during epidyral analgesia for delivery. Parturients who gave birth to a normal birth and did not receive epidural anesthesia. Parturients who gave birth to a normal birth with epidural anesthesia without an unintentional dural puncture. Parturients who gave birth to a normal birth with epidural anesthesia and had an unintentional dural puncture, these women were treated conservatively. Parturients who had a normal birth with epidural anesthesia and had an unintentional dural puncture and were treated with a blood patch following PDPH.

Comparison of the Stiffness of the Lumbar Back Muscles Between Low Back Pain and Healthy Controls...

Low Back Pain

Chronic low back pain remains a major public health issue. Low back pain is frequently associated with stiffness changes of the lumbar back muscles. The techniques which assess the stiffness of the back muscles are poorly reliable and do not allow the quantification of stiffness changes. Elastography (magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound) can be used to objectively and non-invasively quantify in vivo tissue elasticity. The aim of the investigator's study is to compare the stiffness in the main lumbar back muscles (i.e. the erector spinae and the multifidus) by using magnetic resonance elastography and shear wave elastography.

Spinal Kinematics in Chronic Low Back Pain

Chronic Low Back Pain

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is one of the most frequent causes for limitations in daily, leisure and work-related activities. Although alterations in spinal motor behavior were consistently reported in CLBP patients, it remains unclear how improvements in spinal motor behavior through rehabilitation treatment affect pain and disability. Psychological factors, such as pain-related fear, were suggested as a possible main cause of spinal motor behavior in CLBP and better understanding their relationships with kinematic and muscle activity alterations is required to enhance care, particularly physiotherapy. Therefore, this study will test CLBP patients before and after a 3 week rehabilitation program to test the hypotheses that: 1) improvements in spinal motor behavior (kinematics and trunk muscle activity) are associated with decreased pain and disability; 2) decrease in pain-related fear is associated with spinal motor behavior improvements.

Association Between the Duration of Smart Phone Use and Back Dysfunction in Patients With Low Back...

Mechanical Low Back Pain

This study investigates the association between the duration of smart phone use and back pain and proprioception deficits in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain (CLBP). It is hypothesized that increased duration of smart phone use will be associated with Increased back pain as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Reduced proprioception acuity as indicated by increased angle of error of back repositioning as measured by isokinetic dynamometer.

Trunk Muscle Strength, Strength Endurance and Activity in Persons With Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain

The research questions are if persons with low back pain (LBP) have lower trunk muscle strength, lower trunk muscle strength endurance and lower trunk muscle activity than healthy controls and if functional limitations because of LBP are related to the level of muscle strength, strength endurance and activity. To investigate this investigators will carry out a clinical assessment including questionnaires and a biomechanical assessment comprising muscle strength tests, muscle strength endurance tests and electromyographic (EMG) analysis of selected trunk muscles.

Cost Effectiveness of OMT for Chronic Low Back Pain

Lumbar RadiculopathyLesion of Sciatic Nerve9 more

The specific aim of this study is to conduct a prospective, multicenter cohort study over four months to compare the cost of standard of allopathic care (control group, N=90) versus standard of care plus osteopathic manipulative treatment (experimental group, N=90) in a cohort of 180 consecutive patients seeking treatment for chronic low back pain at three osteopathic clinics and three allopathic medical clinics (offering only standard care) located in three different regions of the United States.
