Filter by:To determine the effect of active release technique and abdominal drawing in maneuver on pain and quality of life in patients of chronic low back pain.
With the expected rise of patients with osteoporosis-induced fractures, it has become increasingly urgent to design and use specialized health education materials aimed at easing pain and improving bodily functions
To Compare the effects of Pilates Excercises versus muscle energy technique along with kinesiotaping in non specific low back pain.
The aim of the study is to determine the impact of early rehabilitation in patients after lumbar spine surgery using microdiscectomy on balance, postural stability and foot pressure distribution. The tests will be carried out at the Physical Effort Laboratory in Gdańsk.
To investigate the safety and efficacy of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell spheroids pretreated with matrillin-3 in chronic low back pain patients with lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration.
There is emerging evidence that Bowen Therapy may improve musculoskeletal pain. While it can be an effective treatment strategy to enhance pain modulation; studies on the clinical effect are scarce. The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of Bowen therapy for people with chronic LBP on measures of pain, function, pain-related self-efficacy, and health related quality of life. Parallel-group randomized controlled trial (RCT) study will be employed. Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) will be adopted as a screening test upon the randomization. A cutoff of more than 30 points will be used to represents clinically relevant level of catastrophizing. 46 participants with informed consent who meet the eligibility criteria of study are recruited and randomly assigned to one of two groups i.e. Bowen Therapy group and Sham Bowen Conventional Therapy group. Permuted block randomization is applied to control the key confounding variable of catastrophizing which is significantly associated with pain and disability in chronic LBP. Sequentially numbered, opaque, sealed envelopes (SNOSE) is used to ensure the allocation sequence before the group allocation. Double blinding of participants and outcome assessor will be adopted. Measurements are collected at the baseline (Week 0), post-intervention (Week 6) and at a 4-week follow-up (Week 10). The primary outcomes are pain as measured by Percentage of Pain Intensity Difference (PID) and pain relief scale (PRS). The secondary outcomes are measuring the physical functioning, self-efficacy in pain and HRQoL using Owestry Disability Index (ODI), Pain Self-efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ) and SF-12 (HK) respectively. Intervention is provided weekly for 6 sessions lasting 30-40 minutes per treatment session. The experimental group will receive Bowen therapy according to ISBT Bowen Therapy®. The control group will receive a usual OT therapy with the same number of treatment session, treatment time, including back care advice and functional rehab training.
It is stated that abnormal lower extremity posture and biomechanics are effective in the development and progression of Low Back Pain (LBP). Exercise, electrotherapy, insoles, and orthoses are used for the prevention and treatment of low back pain.The use of orthosis, insoles, and taping techniques stands out in the correction of foot posture and dysfunctions, which are stated to cause LBP. In studies examining the application of taping to improve foot posture and biomechanics, it is stated that taping is effective in improving foot posture and biomechanics in the short term. Biomechanical taping has been used in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in recent years. It is aimed to correct the impaired joint biomechanics by reducing the load on the joint, supporting strength, and providing movement modification.
Sciatica is a disabling condition that affects many people. This condition has an enormous influence on the social functioning of patients. The clinical determination of the severity of back pain is mainly done with validated questionnaires, which express the subjective pattern of complaints in a score. These usually reflect the severity of the complaints, but there is still a lack of objective and quantitative tests. In this study, the aim is to investigate whether there is a connection between the duration of the 5R-STS test and the outcome of low back operations after one year. In other words: What is the predictive value of this test on the result of surgery? The validated five-repetition sit-to-stand test (5R-STS) is a standardized test that has its origin in pneumology and is derived from the 1-minute sit-to-stand test. In this test, the patient stands up and sits down for 1 minute as often as possible from a chair without armrests, counting the number of movements. This not only measures how mobile the patient is, but can also say something about the condition of the heart and lungs. Recently, the 5R-STS has been described, in which the time is measured in which the patient has to stand up straight and sit down again five times from a chair.
This study is designed to explore if the valve-gated pump requires less drug to manage subject pain than the prior standard peristaltic pump in the same subject. The newly implanted valve-gated pump will be programmed to deliver a minimum dose reduction of 20% of the same medication that was delivered in the peristaltic pump prior to explant. The drug therapy will be evaluated and pain scores will be evaluated over time (3 refill cycles prospectively for the valve-gated pump and 6 months retrospectively for the peristaltic pump).
The study aims to evaluate outcomes of the use of Kaia Study app (software program application for self-management of low-back pain) on back pain among adults with non-specific subacute and chronic low back pain based on change in pain intensity, physical functioning, quality of life (PROMIS-10) based on self-reported information from baseline to study end as compared to a control group.
