Chiropractic Care & a Specific Regimen of Nutritional Supplementation for

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this multisite randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to compare the short-term (6 week) and long-term (6 month) effect of chiropractic care combined with a specific nutritional supplement regimen to chiropractic care with a placebo supplement for patients with ankle sprains, in terms of improvement in physical function and pain.

Clinical Trial Description

Specific Aim 1: to compare the short-term (6 week) effect of chiropractic care combined with a specific nutritional supplement regimen to chiropractic care with a placebo nutritional supplement for patients with ankle sprains, in terms of speed and amount of improvement in physical function and pain. Our hypothesis is that chiropractic care plus nutritional supplements designed to supply necessary nutrients for ligament healing will have improved outcomes in pain and disability, compared to chiropractic care plus placebo. We will use the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure Activities of Daily Living Subscale (FAAM ADLS) to measure outcomes.

Specific aim 2: to compare the long-term (6 month) effect of chiropractic care combined with a specific nutritional supplement regimen to chiropractic care with a placebo nutritional supplement for patients with ankle sprains, in terms of speed and amount of improvement in physical function and pain. Our hypothesis is that chiropractic care plus nutritional supplements designed to supply necessary nutrients for ligament healing will have improved outcomes as measured by the FAAM ADLS, compared to chiropractic care plus placebo.

Specific aim 3: to explore any changes in the attitude, knowledge and behavior of chiropractic interns and practitioners of the role of nutrition in treating musculoskeletal injuries, pre- and post-intervention. We will also compare their responses to those of a population of students and practitioners who did not participate in the project, as a comparison group. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
