Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of mulligan straight leg raise versus slump stretching on pain, disability and hip range of motion in patient with low back pain. . Convenient sampling technique will be used to enroll the patients. Patients will be inquire into basis of pre formulated eligibility criteria. Written Consent will be taken from each patient before starting interventional sessions. Sample size of this study will consist on the participants who will qualify for both inclusion an exclusion criteria. Both groups will receive ultrasonic therapy and hot pack therapy as baseline treatment. Group A will receive mulligan straight leg raise and group B will receive slump stretching. The assessment of patients will be done at baseline, 4th and 8th week. The outcomes from patients will be calculated by using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Goniometer and ODI. The comparison between pre-treatment and post-treatment data will be done after 8th week. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 25.
This study aims of to investigate whether combining cognitive training to exercise and Pain Neuroscience Education will contribute to reduction of pain and associated symptoms (i.e., catastrophizing, fear of movement, disability) in individuals with low back pain (LBP).
Posture is defined as the best position formed by the segments that make up the body in a harmonious arrangement with each other. Muscle strength, which is one of the primary factors in providing a static or dynamic posture, is achieved thanks to the antigravity muscles that keep the body upright against gravity. Proper posture is ensured by a good body balance.
Low back pain (LBP) is highly prevalent that causes significant pain and disability. Core muscles are important for LBP. One of them is gluteus maximus, but effect of power's program for this muscle and its role in LBP is lacking in literature, so this study aims to study the effect of power's program of gluteus maximus on LBP.
The general objective of this pilot study is to investigate a new multi-level intervention in primary care to improve the care of patients with low back pain. Specifically, it will first investigate the feasibility of delivering this intervention in primary care in Switzerland. Second, it will evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention on the use of unnecessary imaging and unhelpful medication in primary care, the risk of developing chronic disabling care, and direct and indirect healthcare costs. In this two-arm parallel pilot study, it is the general practitioners that will be recruited to be in either arm. In the intervention group, they will deliver the multi-level intervention that consists of: - Stratifying care based on the risk of chronicity - Improving healthcare professional education - Improving patient education - Facilitating interprofessional communication General practitioners in the control group will have no specific training or intervention. They will treat patients according to their usual practice.
The purpose of the study is to examine the implementation strategy, in terms of feasibility and the possible benefits, of a free online Zoom t'ai chi and qigong gentle movement and meditation program to reduce back pain and to improve sleep and quality of life among those with chronic back pain. The primary objective of this study is to examine whether a safe and moderate online t'ai chi and qigong exercise program, offered without cost to individuals with chronic back pain, improves pain levels, sleep, and quality of life; The secondary objective is to explore whether improvements in pain levels are different among smokers and those with unhealthy BMI than among others.
The goal of this clinical trial is to show the additive effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) applied to the multifidus muscle in addition to stabilization exercises in patients with chronic low back pain. The main question it aims to answer is: - Does NMES have additional effects on multifidus muscle thickness? Participants will go under a treatment protocol combination of lumber stabilization exercises and NMES. Researchers will compare the groups Group 1 which has only lumber stabilization exercises and Group 2 which has both exercises and NMES to see if any changes occur in multifidus muscle thickness.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation (the so-called transcranial direct current stimulation ; tDCS) combined with an active physiotherapy program on the multidimensional impact of pain in patients with Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). The secondary objectives are to compare the effects of these interventions on fear of movement, psycho-emotional state, function, functional connectivity of the left dorsolaterla prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and erector spinae activity. Participants will perform: - 2 sessions including clinical assessments including questionnaires, brain activity assessment (with EEG), and back muscle activity assessment (with EMG) - 9 interventional sessions of active physiotherapy combined with active or sham tDCS during 3 weeks (3 per week). Investigators will compare active tDCS with sham tDCS (non active) to evaluate if active tDCS is more effective than sham tDCS.
• To compare the diagnostic and prognostic blood markers in acute and chronic nonspecific low back pain with healthy controls
Low back pain is a common health problem worldwide. Epidemiological studies have shown that 70-80% of all people are affected at least once in their lifetime. Although it is common, often the cause of the pain has not been determined and is called 'nonspecific low back pain. Chronic low back pain ranks second among the most common pain complaints under the age of 45 in the industrial age of limited activity. Organic pathology is not encountered in most musculoskeletal system pains. There are usually many underlying causes. The current literature offers a variety of treatment options, depending on the duration and severity of the symptoms of non-specific low back pain. These treatments include behavioral cognitive therapy, medication, electrophysical agents, manual therapy, and general exercises. Looking at the literature, it has been observed that there are not many objective studies investigating the effect of elastic bandage application on muscle elasticity. 'Shear Wave Elastography' is a method that quantitatively reveals the elasticity of tissues by measuring the speed of shear waves formed in the tissues through non-invasive high-frequency ultrasound waves. In recent studies, Shear Wave Elastography has shown promising results in demonstrating the elasticity of peripheral nerves.
