The Forgotten Role of Back Muscle Characteristics to Tailor Exercise Therapy for Recurrent Non-specific Low Back Pain — Back-to-Back  

Low Back Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
Back to Back: the Forgotten Role of Back Muscle Characteristics to Tailor Exercise Therapy for Recurrent Non-specific Low Back Pain

Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with non-specific low back pain will be compared to healthy, age- and sex-matched controls to determine the most discriminating back muscle characteristics and to delineate possible phenotypes of patients with non-specific low back pain showing impaired proprioceptive postural control. Additionally, the group of patients with non-specific low back pain will receive a 16-week, high-load proprioceptive training program. The effects of this training program on the different back muscle characteristics and proprioceptive postural control will be evaluated.

Clinical Trial Description

The Back-to-Back study consists of a cross-sectional study and a proof-of-concept study. The cross-sectional study aims to gain more insight into the peripheral underlying mechanisms of impaired proprioceptive postural control in patients with non-specific low back pain. Macroscopic, microscopic, hemodynamic, and electrophysiological characteristics of the lumbar multifidus and erector spinae muscles will be compared between patients with non-specific low back pain and healthy, age- and sex-matched controls. The interrelatedness between these back muscle characteristics and the correlation with proprioceptive postural control will be examined. The most discriminating muscle characteristics will be determined based upon which phenotypes of patients with non-specific low back pain will be delineated. The proof-of-concept study aims to assess the effects of high-load proprioceptive training on back muscle characteristics and proprioceptive postural control in patients with non-specific low back pain. ;
