There are about 3285 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Pakistan. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
There have been many studies on the treatment of breast engorgement, there is a lack of research comparing the effectiveness of manual lymph drainage with massage. Therefore, this study will be a randomized controlled trial that aims to compare the effects of manual lymph drainage with massage on breast engorgement, pain, and self efficacy in the postpartum period.
The study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Civil Hospital and Kalsoom Hospital Samundry. This study will be completed in time duration of 10 months after the approval of synopsis. Non probability convenience sampling with Randomization technique will be used and 26 participants will be recruited in study after randomization. The subjects will be divided into two groups and the group A will receive Progressive training and Health education and group B will receive only Health education. The data will be assessed at the baseline and after 8th week of treatment. After data collection data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 21.
This study aims to (1) develop a CBT-based transcultural, transdiagnostic interactive web app and (2) assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of this intervention.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effects of static and dynamic opening with neural sliding in patients with cervical radiculopathy for reducing pain, enhancing cervical range of motion and improve functional status.
This study aims to determined the comparative effect of visual and pressure biofeedback on Pain,Disability and Range of Motion in young and middle aged adults diagnosed with forward head posture.
Planter fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain in adults. Planter fasciitis is frequently seen among athletes playing various sports. However, it is more prevalent in professional runner. The Biomechanical stresses including the increase in the intensity, frequency or the time frame of weight bearing activities that subject athlete's feet to continuous impact loads, surfaces with inadequate cushioning or improper shoe replacement are some of extrinsic risk factors associated with planter fasciitis.3-D ankle mobility exercises are improvised for treatment of plantar fasciitis, these comprise D2 diagonal PNF leg patterns, comprising of flexion-abduction-internal rotation and extension-adduction-external rotation. Heel drop exercise training is another useful intervention used for treating PF; the protocol consists transferring their body weight onto the forefoot of their dominant legs while slightly flexing their ankles. To get back to baseline, the non-dominant leg is given more weight, and the dominant leg's knee was remained fully extended to maintain higher gastrocnemius activation. A Randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Pakistan Sports Board and Boston Physiotherapy Clinic Lahore through consecutive sampling technique on patients which will be allocated through opaque sealed enveloped into Group A and Group B. Group A will be treated with 3-D ankle mobility exercises and Group B will be treated with eccentric heel drop training. Outcome measures tools will be conducted through NPRS, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) and The VISA-A questionnaire: An index of the severity of Achilles tendinopathy after four weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 25. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro-wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.
The goal of this study is to develop a sensory based narrative intervention and see its effect on vocabulary development in children with autism spectrum disorder. Sensory based narrative intervention will be developed, and participants of experimental group will be given this treatment for 6 weeks. Control group participants will be given only narrative intervention. Vocabulary improvement will be documented pre-post testing in both groups.
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of prophylactic use of intravenous tramadol versus tramadol plus ketamine for prevention of shivering under spinal anaesthesia in lower segment caeserian section.
Effects of Incentive spirometry with and without Aerobic exercises on dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life in interstitial lung disease
Stroke is defined as sudden neurological disruption of blood supply to brain. It is most common disease that causes severe disabilities like hemiparesis which is most common motor impairment that leads to persistent upper limb dysfunction. In this study we use two techniques to improve upper limb motor dysfunction and reduce spasticity. One is task-based activities which is used to improve motor function and focus on active participation rather than normal movement pattern and other is neural mobilization which aims to reduce spasticity which is most common in stroke patients.
