Resolving the Burden of Low Back Pain in Military Service Members and Veterans: A Pragmatic Clinical...

Low Back Pain

The RESOLVE trial will provide a pragmatic approach to evaluate whether Physical Therapy Clinical Practice Guideline adherence can reduce pain, disability and downstream healthcare utilization for low back pain within the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs healthcare systems.

Effects of In-Wheel Suspension

Spinal Cord InjuriesFatigue2 more

Manual wheelchairs allow individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to safely and effectively access their environment. However, continual exposure to whole body vibration (WBV) is one of many contributing factors to neck pain, back pain, and fatigue in wheelchair users with SCI. Vibration-reducing in-wheel suspension has the potential to mitigate issues associated with long-term manual wheelchair propulsion. Evidence is lacking on how well these systems work for reducing harmful shock and vibration, pain and fatigue. The purpose of this study is to examine how these wheels change the vibration levels manual wheelchair users are exposed to and how they impact pain and fatigue.

Veterans Response to Dosage in Chiropractic Therapy

Low Back PainPatient Acceptance of Health Care1 more

This study evaluates how Veterans with chronic low back pain (cLBP) respond to varying doses of chiropractic therapy and how health services utilization are impacted as a result. There are 2 phases in this study. In Phase 1, half of participants will receive a low dose (1-5 visits) of chiropractic care for 10 weeks, while the other half will receive a higher dose (8-12 visits) for 10 weeks. At the end of Phase 1, participants in each group will be randomized again to receive either chronic chiropractic pain management (CCPM) (1 scheduled chiropractic visit per month x 10 months) or no CCPM for 10 months.

Effect of Various Virtual Reality Exercise Individuals With Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain

Posture is defined as the best position formed by the segments that make up the body in a harmonious arrangement with each other. Muscle strength, which is one of the primary factors in providing a static or dynamic posture, is achieved thanks to the antigravity muscles that keep the body upright against gravity. Proper posture is ensured by a good body balance.

MRI-Based Structural Changes in Lumber Spine in Subjects With Discogenic Low Back Pain After Mckenzie...

Mechanical Low Back Pain

In the rehabilitation department, we are working with patients of low back pain for routine management and as well as for research. Still now, the biomechanical ground proofing the beneficial effects of McKenzie Mechanical diagnosis and therapy on non-mechanical low back pain has not been studied in depth. This qausi-experimental study will provide expert-level evidence using gold standard MRI findings to add McKenzie MDT in routine treatment of the condition.

Can we Improve Care Pathway in Low Back Pain?

Back PainLow

The general objective of this pilot study is to investigate a new multi-level intervention in primary care to improve the care of patients with low back pain. Specifically, it will first investigate the feasibility of delivering this intervention in primary care in Switzerland. Second, it will evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention on the use of unnecessary imaging and unhelpful medication in primary care, the risk of developing chronic disabling care, and direct and indirect healthcare costs. In this two-arm parallel pilot study, it is the general practitioners that will be recruited to be in either arm. In the intervention group, they will deliver the multi-level intervention that consists of: Stratifying care based on the risk of chronicity Improving healthcare professional education Improving patient education Facilitating interprofessional communication General practitioners in the control group will have no specific training or intervention. They will treat patients according to their usual practice.

Minority Joy and Minority Stress in Trans People: an Intervention Study

Emotional ProblemPain2 more

The aim of this project is to get a better understanding of transgender and gender non-conforming (TGNC) people's experiences of minority joy and minority stress over time. Further, the project explores how these experiences covary with psychiatric and physical ill health and quality of life before, during and after a TGNC affirmative intervention in adult and adolescent participants over 15 years of age. The intervention consists of three parts, given in randomized order: 1. Psychoeducation and behavioral interventions about external minority stress, 2. Cognitive interventions targeting worry, and 3. Self-compassion aiming to relieve internalized transphobia. This project uses a mixed methods data collection consisting of interviews as well as a replicated single case design (SCED). More detailed pre- and post measurements will also be collected. The interviews enable us to explore minority joy in detail, as well as getting feedback about the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention. The SCED enables us to visualize the interplay between everyday experiences and health, while testing the affirmative program. The project will provide much needed knowledge, which in turn will improve health in TGNC people.

Effectiveness of a Pain Neuroscience Education Programme on Physical Activity in Patients With Chronic...

Low Back PainRecurrent

Proposing ways to effectively counter chronic low back pain through non-drug intervention is a major public health issue due to the prevalence and health costs of this condition. The back school (BS) is based on spinal economics and a biomechanical model. A convergence of evidence indicates that this type of program does not bring any mid- or long-term benefit. Faced with this observation, a Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) has been developed based on a biopsychosocial model. Chronic low back pain is the consequence of a complex dynamic of multifactorial origin where the body lesion is no longer the only cause of the pain. Studies have shown that PNE has a positive effect on pain perception. One of the limitations of these studies is that they do not allow objective measurement of physical activity performed at a distance from a therapeutic program for patients who have benefited from these educational programs. Yet, physical activity is an essential variable in health and more specifically in the fight against pain in patients with chronic low back pain. The investigators believe that physical activity is a key factor in improving the condition of patients with chronic low back pain. Consequently, physical activity is an indicator of success but also a guarantee for a lasting effect of educational treatment. In order to measure this physical activity, the use of activity monitor (connected watch) developed in recent years now makes it possible to collect data in an ecological manner that is more objective than the data collected via self-questionnaires. The main objective of the study is to measure the effectiveness of a PNE on physical activity three months after the intervention compared to BS in patients with chronic low back pain receiving a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program. The secondary aims are to compare effectiveness of PNE versus BS on pain, quality of life, kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, central sensitization at 3 months and at one year after the intervention. In addition, an exploratory analysis will be conducted to determine predictors of physical activity maintenance. The investigators expect to observe greater physical activity in patients who have received a PNE program compared to the physical activity of patients who have completed an BS program.
