Filter by:Consenting patients with multiple myeloma (MM) will be randomly allocated to receive either standard medical treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, pain-killing medication) alone or standard medical treatment plus a brace. Patients will be regularly evaluated in research clinics; the results data will inform the design of a full trial. Information will be collected to inform a list of requirements a centre needs to have in place to run an RCT of these interventions.
This study will compare the effects of 2 exercise programs including core stabilization exercise and general trunk strengthening exercise programs on trunk muscle activity, physical dysfunction, quality of life and lumbar motion in low back pain patient with clinical lumbar instability.
Low back pain is considered to be chronic if it has been present for longer than three months. This pathology is extremely frequent with an annual incidence between 5 in 10 % of the general population. Thus she is frequently met in general medicine, in particular to the ageing subject. It is the 2nd motive for consultation. The Chronic Low Back Pain is a mild pathology the forecast of which is in the favorable great majority of the cases but she pulled a socioeconomic cost mattering with a poly-consumption of care, in private individuals. The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of a 3 months SPA Therapy on the Chronic Low Back Pain in older adults (from 60 to 80 years old) realizing a SPA Therapy of 3 weeks to "Neyrac-les-Bains".
The purpose of this study is to determine the reliability and responsiveness of the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ) in a chronic low back pain (CLBP) population referred to The Danish Rheumatism Associations´ rehabilitation centre Sano Aarhus.
This study investigates the ability of cannabis to reduce chronic back and neck pain and to reduce sensitivity to an acute painful stimulus. Cannabis will be compared to both oxycodone and a placebo.
In this placebo controlled, patient and assessor blinded clinical trial, the investigators will administer electroacupuncture vs sham electroacupuncture to patients suffering from chronic low back pain, and monitor their symptoms as well as collecting objective outcome measures. The investigators objective is to identify predictors of pain reduction and functional improvement with electroacupuncture vs placebo.
Introduction Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a highly prevalent health condition, and the leading cause of years lived with disability. The high prevalence causes a substantial impact on patients, communities and health-care systems. There is a continuing challenge to offer evidence-based rehabilitation for patients with CLBP. There is a lack of studies on adequate follow-up approaches to maintain successful treatment. No earlier study has assessed if the positive treatment effects of a multidisciplinary rehabilitation intervention can be maintained with an intervention alternating between inpatient interventions and home-based activities. Aim To assess if a novel multidisciplinary rehabilitation intervention is more effective in maintaining successful treatment after 6 months, than a usual multidisciplinary rehabilitation intervention in patients with CLBP. The novel intervention is a 14-week program alternating between in total three weeks of inpatient intervention and home-based activities. This alternation allows the participants time and opportunity to adapt and transfer inpatient learning to activities and participation in their own environment in interaction with everyday life situations and surroundings. Usual care is a four-week inpatient intervention. It is hypothesized that the intervention will be superior to usual care. Method The study will be conducted at The Danish Rheumatism Associations' rehabilitation centre Sano Aarhus. 160 participants with CLBP will be randomly allocated to one of two groups. The novel intervention consists of: 1) a pre-admission day, 2) two weeks of home-based activities, 3) two-week inpatient period, 4) four weeks of home-based activities, 5) 1st two-days inpatient follow-up, 6) six weeks of home-based activities and 7) 2nd two-days inpatient follow-up. Usual care consists of a four-week inpatient intervention. The two groups will be compared according to disability, pain, pain self-efficacy, quality of life, depression and exercise capacity. Relevance The present study has emerged out of the fields where patients, clinicians and researchers intersect and is consequently highly clinically relevant. If positive treatment effects can be maintained or even improved in the long term, the results may serve as inspiration for the design of multidisciplinary rehabilitation interventions in clinical practice; this will be valuable for future patients with CLBP.
We aim to evaluate the long-term effects of 10 sessions of spinal manipulative therapy applied in a vertebral region-specific or region nonspecific level immediately after treatment and 3 and 6 months after randomization.
Purpose: Comparative effectiveness research (CER) between surgical and non-surgical treatment for patients with low back pain Hypothesis: There will be significant differences in surgical and non-surgical treatment effect in patients who need operation for herniated intervertebral disc and spinal stenosis.
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system attenuates inflammation via catecholamines, recent advances in electroacupuncture allow activating critical neuronal networks with the release of catecholamines the aim of this research was to evaluate de effect of electroacupuncture in the activation of sympathetic nervous system and the control of low back pain in athletes
