Filter by:It has been reported that gait coordination changes in patients with chronic low back pain, walking slower, taking shorter steps and having asymmetrical stride lengths compared to their healthy peers. In addition to many factor cause gait dysfunction, sacroiliac joint dysfunction might be one of reason of these problems. A study examining the effects of sacroiliac joint dysfunction on gait and disability in individuals with chronic low back pain has not been found in the literature. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the gait parameters and disability of individuals with chronic low back pain and to reveal their relationship with sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
The goal of this interventional study is to investigate the effectiveness of an acute bout of exercises on pain sensitivity and clinical pain among adults with Chronic Low Back Pain. The following question will be answered in this research Q1: Is acute bout of exercise effective in reducing pain among adults with Chronic Low Back Pain? Participants who agree to participate and sign the informed consent will be randomized to one of three groups: Group 1: Isometric exercise with neutral language and no verbal suggestion consisting of 1 rep of wall squat, 3 min or to volitional fatigue at 100° knee angle;(n=30). Group 2: Isometric exercise with neutral language and no verbal suggestion consisting of 3 reps of wall squat, 3 min or to volitional fatigue at 100°degree knee angle, 30-sec rest between rep, ;(n=30). Group 3 (Control group): true control (do nothing);(n=30).
This study aimed to examine and compare the effects of exercises applied with a stretching platform in addition to conservative treatment and conservative treatment only on pain, proprioception, balance, and mobility in patients with chronic low back pain. 55 people with chronic low back pain were included in the study and randomly divided into 2 groups. The participants in group 1 were included in the conservative treatment program, while the participants in group 2 were included in the exercise program applied with a stretching platform in addition to the conservative treatment. Pain intensity with Visual Analog Scale (VAS), proprioception sense with the active re-creation of passive positioning method without extremity support, mobility with Modified Schober Test (MST), Hand Finger-Ground Distance Measurement and Trunk Lateral Bending Measurement, balance level with Functional Reach Test, functionality with Oswestry Disability Index and quality of life was assessed with the EuroQol Group 5D-3L Questionnaire. In the study, statistically significant differences were observed between the results of pain, proprioception, MST, HFGDM and TLBM, FRT, ODI and EuroQol Group 5D-3L in intragroup evaluations (p<0,05). In intergroup analysis, the VAS score during activity and 15° right ankle plantar flexion in proprioception evaluation were superior in the Group 2 compared to the group 1 (p<0.05). It was observed that CT and exercises applied with a stretching platform in the treatment of chronic low back pain had positive effects on pain, proprioception, mobility, balance, functionality, and quality of life.
The main objective of the study was to assess the impact of deep tissue massage on subjective and objective parameters in a group of office workers with chronic low back pain. Specific objectives: - Assessment of the impact of deep tissue massage on the level of pain - Assessment of the impact of deep tissue massage on the level of disability - Assessment of the impact of deep tissue massage on the mobility of the lumbar spine - Assessment of the effect of deep tissue massage on the discomfort threshold of tissue compression in the area of the erector spinae muscle - Assessment of the impact of deep tissue massage on the biophysical parameters of the soft tissues of the erector spinae muscle - Evaluation of the impact of deep tissue massage on the bioelectric potentials of the erector spinae muscle during everyday activities and the flexion-relaxation test Hypotheses: - Deep tissue massage will reduce the level of pain in the lumbar spine - Deep tissue massage will reduce the level of disability - Deep tissue massage will increase the range of motion of the lumbar spine in all directions - Deep tissue massage will reduce the threshold of discomfort when compressing the soft tissues of the erector spinae muscle - Deep tissue massage will reduce muscle tone and stiffness and increase the elasticity of the back extensor muscle - Deep tissue massage will increase the bioelectrical potentials of the erector spinae muscle while performing tests of activities of daily living - Deep tissue massage will reduce the value of the flexion-relaxation test
The goal of this trial is to compare the effects 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency (CRM) with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) versus only PNF in chronic low back pain patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of pain. 2. Is there any difference in interventions on reduction of disability. Participants will in the experimental group will be treated with a combination of: 1. 448kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency and, 2. PNF intervention Participants will in the control group will be treated only using 1. PNF intervention (identical to experimental group) Researchers will compare experimental and control group to see if there are differences in reduction of pain and disability.
Chronic low back pain is defined as back pain that lasts longer than 12 weeks. The aim of this clinical study is to investigate the efficacy of combining a program of manual techniques with the application of Capacitive and Resistive Electric Transfer (TECAR) therapy to treat chronic low back pain. Sixty adults with chronic low back pain will be randomly divided into three groups of 20 each. In the participants of the first group, a therapeutic protocol of manual soft tissue mobilization in the lumbar region will be applied. To the participants of the second group, the same protocol of manual techniques will be applied in combination with TECAR therapy, which will be applied through a conventional capacitive electrode as well as an antistatic electrode bracelet (making the hand of the physical therapist an antistatic electrode). The third group participants will receive no treatment. Both programs will include six treatments over two weeks. Pain in the last 24 hours with the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), functional ability with the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT) in the lumbar region with an algometer, and lumbar flexion range of motion through fingertip-to-floor distance (FFD) test will be evaluated before and after the intervention with a follow-up one month later. For the statistical analysis of the results, a two-factor analysis of variance with repeated measurements will be applied, while the statistical significance index will be set at p < .05.
We aimed to investigate the effects of instrument assisted manipulation (IAM) and Mulligan mobilization with movement (MWM) on joint range of motion (ROM), pain, proprioception, endurance, back awareness and disability in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP). Fifthy one participants were randomly divided into 3 groups. The first was the Mulligan group, the second was the IAM group, and the third was the core exercise group. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to assess pain severity. Lumbal flexibility was evaluated with the fingertip-to-floor test. Oswestry disability index (ODI) and Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) used to evaluate the disability. Fremantle back awareness questionnaire (FBAQ) used to evaluate back awareness. Joint ROM (lumbal flexion, lumbal extension and lumbal lateral flexion) and proprioception (30° lumbal flexion in standing, 30° lumbal flexion in sitting, 15° lumbal extension standing and lumbal neutral position) evaluated with JTECH digital dual inclinometer. McGill core endurance tests were used for core endurance assessment. McGill core endurance assessment consists of 3 tests. These: Flexor endurance test, lateral endurance test and extensor endurance test.
The main purpose of this study is to assess whether LY3857210 is safe and efficacious in relieving chronic low back pain (CLBP). This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol (H0P-MC-CPMP) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
The aim of this study is to determine whether the effectiveness of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization technique is different from passive prone lying when performed with a functional exercise in individuals with chronic nonspecific low back pain.
The primary objective of the current research is to assess the effect of an enhanced patient-clinician relationship when compared to a limited patient-clinician relationship on measures of chronic low back pain and objective functional measures. The second objective is to examine racialized disparities in chronic low back pain among individuals who identify as non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White using a qualitative approach. Lastly, the study team will explore relationships between psychosocial components of low back pain, pain and functional outcomes, and patient-clinician relationship measures.
