Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the following study is to analyze the effects of a prehabilitation program based on therapeutic exercise, back care education and pain neuroscience education through the visualization of videos, compared to standardized written therapeutic exercise in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery.


Description:

So far, there are no previous studies that analyze the effects of a prehabilitation program including therapeutic exercise, back care education and pain neuroscience education through the visualization of videos in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery. This is a multicenter randomized clinical trial aimed at analyzing the effects of a 4 weeks prehabilitation program based on video visualization versus the performance of standardized written exercises in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery.
