Filter by:At Lyon University Medical Center, back problems are the leading cause of sick leave. The course of lower back pain is usually relatively short (recovery occurs within 4 to 6 weeks in 90% of cases). However, about 5-10% develop chronic lower back pain. Although this is a relatively small group, the economic consequences are enormous (accounting for 70 to 80% of the total cost of lower back pain). Nowadays, some very general training sessions are offered to workers at Lyon University Medical Center, irrespective of their lower back pain status. These very general training sessions are mostly preventive and primary in nature (like back school program) despite the fact that these people already have a history of lower back pain, the main risk factor of recurrence and chronic pain. Since the 1980, some multidisciplinary functional restoration programs have been advised as a strategy for secondary and tertiary prevention of lower back pain. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of physical exercise combined with an educational program and self-led exercise for Lyon University Medical Center workers with lower back pain. We hope this intervention will reduce the risk of recurrence and chronic lower back pain.

The purpose of this study is to determine if duloxetine reduces the severity of chronic low back pain.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of flurbiprofen tape for chronic low back pain (lasting greater than three months.
The aim of the study is to evaluate pain intensity over 8 weeks in acupuncture patients with chronic low back pain and to compare 2 different groups of patients which differ in the acupuncture method used to treat the pain.
To evaluate the pain relief effect of locally injected corticosteroid treatment in women with long-lasting low back pain beginning in pregnancy. We hypothesize that the insertion of the sacrospinous ligament on the ischial spine would be a source of pain and therefore be a target for therapy. Primary outcome measure is reported pain intensity on visual analogue scale and secondary outcome measures number of pain-drawing locations, pain-provoking test results and tests of function.
The research was an interventional study with a quantitative board, fulfilled in a private clinique specialized in trauma service; it was formed between august to October of 2006. The objective was to investigate the effectiveness of neuromuscular balance in lumbar pain. The 12 patients, with age between 20 and 55 years, whose did five consultations, with 100% presence, got relief of the pain and increase of movement of hips' articulation which was the most painful movement with 91,66% graduation. All the patients presented the shorting test positive and it kept positive in 7 patients. There was a significant improvement in pain relief (p=0,001,) comparing the first and the fifth consultation, and hip articulation movement. Even after the relief of the pain, 7(58,3%) of the patients kept the treatment for a more effective rehabilitation and prevention of repetition of the symptoms. It was concluded that the neuromuscular balance relieved quickly the pain, being essential for effective rehabilitation of low back pain, with the inclusion of others manual techniques.
The purpose of this study is to find the clinical dose range of an active ingredient of JNS013 - Tramadol hydrochloride in chronic-pain patients who cannot attain a sufficient analgesic effect from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
