Filter by:To compare between immediate effect of SNAG and mulligan lion position in range of motion (ROM) , pain, functional ability and kinesiophobia on patients with nonspecific low back pain.
To determine the effectiveness of Kineso taping (KT) Versus Sham taping along with routine physical therapy among Chronic Low Back pain (CLBP) patients.
This research study will help determine whether a medication called duloxetine can improve back pain. It is well documented that many participants who come to the ER with acute low back pain still have low back pain 3 months later. The investigator team will attempt to determine whether duloxetine can help prevent this.
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.
The biomechanical parameters studied in non-specific chronic low back pain patients in a locomotion task have so far focused on straight line walking. Although locomotion is primarily an automated action composed of repetitive patterns allowing movement from one place to another, walkers must respond to the environmental demands.These modifications show a flexible and adaptive approach to the constraints of the environment. In this study, the investigators are particularly interested in a task of crossing between two pedestrians, which is a standardised task that has shown its interest in the study of perceptual-motor co-ordination. In particular, it allows to study the mutual adaptation of speed and orientation between the two walkers.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of a digital behavioral therapy for insomnia (dBTi) in people with chronic low back pain and insomnia. The main question it aims to answer is whether a 3 week period of dBTi can improve pain-related interference 6 weeks from commencement. Researchers will compare the treatment (dBTi) to an active control (Sleep health education modules) to see if there is a significant difference in outcomes at baseline and end-of-study (6 weeks).
The goal of this interventional study is to test the effects of trigger point dry needling to the low back in a healthy population. The main aims are to answer: - Is there a change in sensitivity to experimental pain after trigger point dry needling - To determine if there is an association between demographic and psychological factors and immediate changes in pain sensitivity after receiving trigger point dry needling. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups a dry needling group or a sham dry needling group. The dry needling group will receive trigger point dry needling to the lumbar spine. The sham dry needling group will receive needling to the lumbar spine with a sham needle which does not penetrate the skin. In other words, researchers will compare an intervention group and a sham group to see if dry needling has an immediate change in pain sensitivity in response to experimentally induced pain.
Low Back Pain is a common heath condition with high rates of recurrence and huge associated costs. Research has focused its efforts on analysing the effects of interventions while knowledge about effective secondary prevention strategies is limited. MyBack study aims to analyse the effectiveness of a tailored exercise and behavioural change program (MyBack program) in the secondary prevention of low back pain, and evaluate acceptability, feasibility and determinants of implementation by the different stakeholders, as well as the implementation strategy of the MyBack program, through a hybrid type I, randomized, controlled and multicentre study of effectiveness and implementation in the context of primary health care.
Proposing ways to effectively counter chronic low back pain through non-drug intervention is a major public health issue due to the prevalence and health costs of this condition. The back school (BS) is based on spinal economics and a biomechanical model. A convergence of evidence indicates that this type of program does not bring any mid- or long-term benefit. Faced with this observation, a Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) has been developed based on a biopsychosocial model. Chronic low back pain is the consequence of a complex dynamic of multifactorial origin where the body lesion is no longer the only cause of the pain. Studies have shown that PNE has a positive effect on pain perception. One of the limitations of these studies is that they do not allow objective measurement of physical activity performed at a distance from a therapeutic program for patients who have benefited from these educational programs. Yet, physical activity is an essential variable in health and more specifically in the fight against pain in patients with chronic low back pain. The investigators believe that physical activity is a key factor in improving the condition of patients with chronic low back pain. Consequently, physical activity is an indicator of success but also a guarantee for a lasting effect of educational treatment. In order to measure this physical activity, the use of activity monitor (connected watch) developed in recent years now makes it possible to collect data in an ecological manner that is more objective than the data collected via self-questionnaires. The main objective of the study is to measure the effectiveness of a PNE on physical activity three months after the intervention compared to BS in patients with chronic low back pain receiving a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program. The secondary aims are to compare effectiveness of PNE versus BS on pain, quality of life, kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, central sensitization at 3 months and at one year after the intervention. In addition, an exploratory analysis will be conducted to determine predictors of physical activity maintenance. The investigators expect to observe greater physical activity in patients who have received a PNE program compared to the physical activity of patients who have completed an BS program.
The main objective of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy of a 6-week therapeutic exercise program, performed with virtual reality (VR) manipulating visual proprioceptive information during all lumbar movements in the different therapeutic exercises (experimental group), on pain and disability, kinesiophobia, range of motion (ROM), catastrophizing, quality of life, and physical fitness in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain compared to the same therapeutic exercise program without VR (control group).
