Filter by:A total of 200 participants are predicted to be enrolled for completing questionnaires in relation of visual analogue scale, back pain disability and autonomy in Albania. A feasibility, validate, test-retest reliability and observational design is estimated.
This study evaluates whether there is additive effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation applied to lower lumbar region to core stabilization exercises in the management of chronic low back pain. Participants will randomly divide into two groups; half will receive core stabilization exercises and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in combination, while the other half will receive core stabilization exercises and sham NMES.
The aim of this project is to investigate the effectiveness of chiropractic application on patients who have undergone routine medication as a standard hospital treatment for mechanical low-back pain as described in the Clinical Practice Guidelines
This study is a double blinded randomized active placebo controlled trial in subjects with chronic low back pain. The trial compares pain relief by a device that delivered high level pulsed heat (45 °C) to pain relief delivered by a steady heat lower temperature device (37 °C). The hypothesis is that the high temperature pulsed heat device will produce significantly better pain relief as compared to the lower level steady heat device. The secondary hypothesis is that pain relief will occur faster in the high pulsed heat device as compared to the control device.
The purpose of this study was to block the posterior branch of lumbar spinal nerve during PKP operation and compare it with the patients without spinal nerve block, so as to verify the effect of posterior branch block of spinal nerve in relieving short-term and long-term residual low back pain after operation.
A study to explore whether two different treatment approaches, myofascial trigger point release and core stabilization exercises, both with and without additional paced breathing training, can help patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) and whether one of the two treatments is superior.
Ongoing fear and catastrophization in people with chronic low back pain (CLBP) causes increased pain, disability and kinesiophobia, and decreased endurance of trunk muscles. Nowadays, recurrent low back pain complaints are increasing day by day. Besides the use of electrophysical agents and exercise in the treatment of chronic low back pain, education methods used to reduce the negative effects of psychosocial factors are important for healing. Although there were studies about the combination of Therapeutic Neuroscience Education (TNE) with exercise in CLBP, there are no studies that combine electrophysical agents, exercise and TNE methods in the literature. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate whether TNE combined with physiotherapy consisting of electrophysical modalities and home program exercise is superior to only physiotherapy in patients with CLBP.
The Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire was first developed in English to test whether healthcare staff and patients could exactly understand pain neurophysiology. This questionnaire which contains 19 items was developed from the exam questions of students interested in post-graduate pain medicine. Catley et al. (2013) investigated the psychometric properties of the modified Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire with a few word differences from the original version by conducting a rash analysis on 300 patients with chronic spinal pain. Acceptable internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the questionnaire were recorded. However, it was stated that 7 items negatively affect psychometric properties of the questionnaire. As a result, the author concluded that the questionnaire had sufficient psychometric properties for use in chronic spinal pain subjects, but further studies were needed. The Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire was used to measure a knowledge about pain in different studies. The validity and reliability studies of the Dutch, French and Brazlian Portuguese versions of the Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire were conducted in the literature. The aim of our study was to translate the Revised Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire into Turkish language and to investigate its psychometric properties.
The purpose of this study is to determine if music therapy during interventional lumbar medial branch blocks for chronic lower back pain will lower pain scores and anxiety levels, while increasing patient desire for repeat procedure as well as patient satisfaction.
This study uses a single questionnaire to evaluate two separate primary outcomes: 1. To identify association between chronic headache in women who have given birth to children as compared to a control group of women who have raised children but have not given birth to them 2. To identify association between chronic back pain in women who have given birth to children as compared to a control group of women who have raised children but have not given birth to them
