Filter by:This study aims to compare the acute effects of different kinesiology tapes on pain, functional performance and trunk endurance in young adults with chronic low back pain. Seventy young adults with chronic low back pain between the ages of 18-40 were included in our study. The individuals included in our study were divided into two groups by a simple randomization method. Star-shaped kinesiology taping was applied to the 1st group, and I-shaped kinesiology taping was applied to the 2nd group. The demographic and physical characteristics of the individuals who agreed to participate in the study were recorded. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to evaluate pain before taping, immediately after taping and 4 days after taping, Oswestry low back pain disability scale (OLBPDS) to assess disability level, Lumbar Flexion Repeat Speed Test, Sit-and-Stand Test to evaluate functional performance in both groups. Biering Sorenson Test was applied to evaluate the forward bending test with weight and trunk endurance.
This is an open-label prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center study comparing DTM-SCS programming approach to Conventional SCS programming approach. The purpose of this investigational study is to study the effects of Differential Target Multiplexed Spinal Cord Stimulation (DTM-SCS) in subjects with chronic, intractable pain of the trunk with or without lower limb pain, including unilateral or bilateral pain without prior history of spine surgery and refractory to conservative and surgical interventions.
In the proposed project the investigators will evaluate the feasibility of Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) and assess the initial effects of IVR on symptoms, affect, and tolerance to cutaneous stimuli. In this single-arm trial, the investigators will recruit 20 adults with CBP. Prior to their IVR experience, subjects will complete multiday baseline assessments using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) methodology to establish typical levels of symptoms and affect. Afterward, in a single experimental session, they will participate in two counterbalanced IVR sessions: one 10-minute and one 20-minute. Immediately after each session the investigators will measure current symptoms and affect using valid and reliable self-report questionnaires, and we will measure changes in tolerance to cutaneous stimuli using quantitative sensory testing. We will measure symptoms and affect for 72 hours after the experimental session using EMA to determine if there is a carryover. At the completion of this study, we will continue to work with stakeholders to develop clinically relevant IVR interventions for people with CBP.
The overarching goal of this study is to develop and evaluate a telephone delivered behavioral change intervention for older Veterans with chronic low back pain (cLBP) and comorbid depression, and to ultimately assess its effect on cLBP-related pain, depressive symptoms, and disability. Investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess feasibility for older Veterans with cLBP and depression assigned to receive the behavioral interventions (n=25) versus waitlist control (n=25). For participants assigned to the intervention arm, trained health coaches will deliver the intervention via telephone. All participants, regardless of what group they have been assigned to will undergo several outcome assessments (pre-screening, baseline, mid-point, final assessments) conducted by a blinded research assistant. Subjects randomized to the waitlist control group will be offered the same intervention once the active intervention group has completed the active sessions and assessments.
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blinded, Parallel, Active-controlled, Phase III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of DW-330SR2 and Pelubiprofen in Chronic Back Pain Patients.
At Saint-Antoine's hospital, in CETD a multidisciplinary team takes care of patients with chronic pain. Free-drug techniques are available to reduce their consumption of analgesics. This study is to assess the relief obtained by the simultaneous combination of these two techniques: transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and hypnosis.
Recent evidence suggests that chronic pain is associated with abnormal connectivity between brain regions associated with the processing of pain. We aim to test the diagnostic power of resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to diagnose patients with chronic back pain. Using new methods of image acquisition and analysis we aim to develop a computational method to correctly classify patients and matched control subjects.
