Filter by:the study aims to compare the effect of regular back exercises with shockwave therapy by treating male patients with non-specific low back pain between the age of (20-40). Who will be devided into 3 groups, and will be treated by shockwave therapy , exercises or both combined. After signing a consent form, patients will be assigned to the groups blindly, so the patients will not know if they are in the experimental or control group. Hypothesis: The hypothesis of this study states that: o Research hypothesis: there will be a significant difference between the radial ESWT and back exercises in reducing LBP
to investigate the effect of pilat mat exercise versus MET on chronic non specific LBP:Randomized controlled trial
This study will be a randomized controlled trial. This study will be conducted in Civil Hospital, Hassan Abdal. A sample size of 32 patients will be taken. Patients will be divided into two groups by lottery method. Group A will be treated with hot pack followed by Manual Lymphatic Drainage while Group B will be given home based plan of hot pack application only. Both groups will receive treatment for 4 weeks,2 sessions per week. The outcome measures Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS), QOL-GRAV and Oswestry Disability Index for back. Data will be analyzed by SPSS 21.
A randomized and controlled trial to people with low back pain who are divided into 2 groups of treatment: 1- people treated with a protocol of physical therapy techniques without magnetic field therapy; 2- people treated with the same protocol of physical therapy techniques adding a magnetic stimulation treatment. The interventions are conducted in 3 sessions provided during 3 weeks.The lumbar pain and disability are assessed before and after the intervention, and lumbar flexion and extension pain are assessed before and after each session in all the participants.
The investigators' main focus of this trial will be to investigate - why people with low back pain perceive lifting (with a bent back) as harmful. - whether general measures of pain-related fear are associated with task-specific measures of perceived harmfulness - why people with low back pain avoid lifting (with a bent back) This will be investigated using self-report (i.e., questionnaires)
Low back pain and neck pain are common problems that affect people at certain times in their lives. These people constitute a significant part of the disease burden due to their recurrent complaints. People with low back and neck pain often seek medical attention. This situation causes individuals to apply to the hospital frequently and causes a serious cost at the social level. When the risk factors for neck pain are examined, many factors such as genetics, sleep problems, smoking, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, poor posture, previous neck pain, trauma, back pain and poor general health cause neck pain to develop. Similarly, conditions such as age, obesity, and poor general health appear to be risk factors for low back pain. In addition to these risk factors, it has been reported that occupational factors such as long and sedentary working hours and unsuitable workplace conditions may also cause low back and neck pain. Fixed posture and prolonged sitting are thought to be risk factors for low back and neck pain, but opinions on this subject are not clear. The COVID-19 pandemic has created a global crisis since 2019 and caused a change in the lifestyle of all people around the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that social distance should be increased and face-to-face contact should be reduced to prevent the spread of the pandemic. For this reason, many institutions have decided to work remotely and trainings have been carried out remotely. The increasing teleworking style with the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increase in the average screen time of individuals. It was reported that time spent on the Internet increased by 52% compared to the pre-pandemic period. This study aims to investigate the relationship between increased teleworking hours and internet use during the pandemic period in individuals with low back or neck pain. Researchers think that postural changes that may occur with increased distance working time, increased fixed posture and asymmetrical loading may contribute to the uncertain relationship between low back and neck pain and posture.
investigate the effect of shock wave therapy versus mechanical traction on mechanical low back pain.
Though large body of evidence reported association between pain and kinesiophobia, there are paucity of studies in associating kinesiophobia to muscle endurance and position sense in patients with Chronic lower back pain [CLBP]. To the best of Investigator's knowledge, till date there is no studies assessing the relationship between kinesiophobia and endurance and position sense in subjects with CLBP. Therefore, the current study aims to compare the impact of kinesiophobia on lumbar extensor endurance, position sense in patient with CLBP and asymptomatic individuals.
The effectiveness of balneotherapy in relieving chronic low back pain has been scientifically proven. This project aims to study in what extent a Balneotherapy program in São Pedro do Sul Thermal Baths influences chronic low back pain of individuals aged 65 and above, and in what order of magnitude it happens, on which domains (functional, psychological, biophysical and socioeconomic) and it's repercussions. For that, the investigators intended to carry out a project subdivided into two tasks. The first, and the most complex, with a holistic approach, will be carried out by a randomized controlled study (RCT) with focus on the various biopsychosocial domains of patients with chronic lumbar pain. Concerning the second task, another RCT will be carried out aiming for statistically significant changes in the lumbar thermographic maps before and after treatment, as well as the theoretical framework of all the findings.
The overall objectives of this study are to investigate the efficacy of extended cannabis treatment to reduce patient exposure to prescription opioids through its use 1) as a non-opioid analgesic treatment, and 2) as a therapy for reducing high-dose opioid use in patients with chronic spine pain.
