Filter by:The proposed research is a single arm feasibility trial of pain rehabilitation virtual reality (PRVR) aimed at measuring feasibility, acceptability and utility of VR as well as changes in physical function and fear for adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain. The intervention includes standard physiotherapy treatment including functional goal setting and progressive exercise.
Worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grow. Although COVID-19 mainly affects the lungs and internal organs, musculoskeletal injury from this disease was reported with the presentation of marked elevation in creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase levels. Patients with post-acute COVID-19 are considered patients with a post-intensive syndrome (PICS) that results in loss of functional independence. In the physical and rehabilitation medical field, various modalities with therapeutic exercise can be used to manage pain by a physical therapist and psychiatrist. Pain management is particularly important during the COVID-19 pandemic because of the reduced accessibility to hospitals and medical resources.
In this study, it is aimed to investigate the effect of Pilates application on abdominal muscle function, core stability, musculoskeletal pain, quality of life, anxiety and depression in Parkinson's Patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether a daily, 15-minute stretching routine for one year reduces musculoskeletal pain and improves quality of life in personnel working in the radiology and cardiology departments at Mayo Clinics and Mayo Clinic Health System sites.
Experiencing an episode of musculoskeletal (MSK) pain in young age significantly increases the risk of developing MSK pain later in life. Consequently, knowledge on modifiable risk factors early in life is needed. In this prospective cohort study, data from the population-based Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT) will be used to investigate whether a combination of lifestyle factors in adolescence is associated with persistent MSK pain in young adulthood.
This is a pragmatic controlled clinical trial taking place in the first phase of COVID-19 lockdown re-opening in Spain. Patients of 52 chiropractic clinics were invited to participate in a pseudo-random order (one out of every three contacted patients) as they were contacted to either schedule an appointment with their current chiropractor or not, depending on the clinic's and the patient's availability. Patients would receive chiropractic in-person care (one or more than one visits) or no care at all, for a two-week period. According to the care received, they were assigned to one of three groups (receiving no care, receiving care once, and more than once). Participants filled an online questionnaire with self-reported outcome-measures at the beginning of the two week period. A follow-up questionnaire was completed 14 days after.
The primary objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy of targeted individualised physiotherapeutic treatment on aromatase inhibitor-associated musculoskeletal pain. This trial asks a critical, previously unaddressed, question of clinical importance about management of musculoskeletal (MSK) pain secondary to aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Many breast cancer survivors taking AIs experience muscle and/or joint pain, which may cause many to stop taking AIs and may inhibit exercise or physical activity, despite its known health benefits. Physiotherapeutic treatment is considered a standard management strategy for many MSK pain conditions, in which targeted specific exercise therapy is now as an evidence-based management strategy with proven effectiveness and patient satisfaction. Thus, referral to physiotherapy would be a natural strategy in women who experience MSK pain as an adverse effect to AI therapy. However, it is unclear if physiotherapeutic treatment has similar effects on AI induced MSK pain as in primary MSK pain. Two systematic review (one with a meta-analysis) have assessed the effect of different pain management strategies for AI-induced MSK-pain and found great uncertainty in the effects of exercise, relaxation techniques and acupuncture. They also found limited evidence on the subject and moderate to low quality of the studies included. The evidence on the subject is clearly limited but the need for a treatment option to minimize the side-effects of the AI medication real and necessary. Targeted individualised physiotherapeutic treatment is tailored for the affected (painful) tissue/joint/region specifically and is based on extensive experience and evidence from MSK physiotherapy in rheumatic and orthopedic patient population. Targeted individualised physiotherapy treatment take into account the individual patient, her constitution, the painful tissue/region/joint (e.g. its biomechanics, physiological properties, and inflammatory activity), and is adjusted according to day-to-day variations in pain and progressed based on the interaction between changes in symptoms and function and tissue healing. Such approach is expected to yield a greater effect on MSK pain, than a generic exercise program. Further, targeted treatment programs are delivered by trained physiotherapists, who have specific clinical training and experience in clinical management of patient and handling MSK pain, which is also expected to yield better clinical outcomes than programs delivered by people without clinical training. Altogether it is very likely that a targeted physiotherapy treatment will be of significant benefit to breast cancer survivors with AI induced MSK pain. The aim is to compare targeted individualized physiotherapeutic treatment and medical care with medical care alone on aromatase inhibitor associated musculoskeletal pain in female breast cancer survivors. It is hypothesized that targeted physiotherapeutic treatment and medical care reduces musculoskeletal pain significantly in women with aromatase inhibitor associated musculoskeletal pain when compared to medical care alone. The plan is to include 120 participants from the oncology department at Rigshospitalet, Denmark. Participants will partake in the study for a total of 26 weeks. During the first 12 week the intervention group will receive the physiotherapeutic treatment twice a week. The medical care visits are place at the first visit to the clinic, week 13 and week 26.
An uncontrolled pilot in which Veterans age 60-95 years with chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain will undergo Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET) delivered over video teleconference (VTC; together vEAET). This study aims to obtain early implementation outcomes, as well as evaluate efficacy and estimated effect sizes.
Parkinson disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Pain is the frequent non-motor symptom that significantly compromises the quality of life, affecting 80% of patients during the course of the disease. There is currently no evidence-based treatment for PD-related pain in general. Nociceptive pain is the most frequent pain in PD an is frequently musculoskeletal in nature. Epidural spinal cord stimulation is known to provide analgesic effects in several types of pain syndromes. Here we test analgesic effects of a non-invasive trans-spinal magnetic stimulation as an add-on treatment for nociceptive (musculoskeletal) pain directly related to Parkinson disease.
The aim of this study is to investigate the associations between pain cognitions and movement-evoked pain in people with musculoskeletal pain complaints.
