Filter by:The purpose of this study is to collect clinical and radiological mid-term (min. 1 year) data on the ArcadiusXP L® lumbar stand-alone cage in a post-market clinical follow-up study (PMCF) limited to 60 patients.
Physical exercise has a fundamental position in the chronic low back pain treatment. However, the physical activity level is often low in these patients and the adherence to the care program is not enough in the long term. The French Evaluation of the Perception of Physical Activity (EPPA) is a valid and reliable questionnaire, developed by N. Coste et al in 2020, that assesses the perceived barriers to and facilitators of physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. To our knowledge, there is no valid and reliable instrument allowing such an assessment in chronic low back pain. The main objective of this study is to adapt the EPPA to chronic low back pain and to evaluate its psychometric properties. This validation would allow its use in current practice to adapt the care strategy, to personalize rehabilitation of each patient with chronic low back pain in order to have a better adherence to rehabilitation programs.
This randomized controlled pilot study will be evaluating an app, MORT-LBP app (ETH-02K), owned by EverEx, Inc., to examine safety and efficacy in individuals with chronic lower back pain.
Chronic pain symptoms are very common among U.S. Military Veterans and have a profound negative impact on mental health symptoms and quality of life, in addition to increasing risk for suicidal ideation and suicidal behaviors. There are currently extremely few safe and effective pharmacological treatments for chronic pain disorders, and the clinical need to develop new therapeutics for pain has never been more urgent. Fueled by the worsening opioid crisis and further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, opioid and other drug overdose deaths have climbed to staggeringly high levels. The rapid development of medications for the management of chronic pain conditions that are safe, well-tolerated, efficacious and non-addicting is thus of paramount importance. The two neurosteroid candidates to be investigated in this trial are naturally occurring molecules enriched in human brain and potentially ideal candidates for safe and effective chronic pain treatment.
Identification of the effects of low back pain and motor control influence on soccer players performance.
The current standard technique is radiography requiring three uni- or bilateral punctures (transverse-axial plane). The ultrasound technique is also described mainly in this plan but a new "caudal-cranial" ultrasound-guided technique was described by Chang et al in 2018 in which the major axis is used to conduct the needle to the desired area. The investigators would like to confirm that this new technique in a single puncture is also possible under ultrasound.
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate a biomarker for lumbar myofascial pain (MP) based on ultrasound obtained measurements of the lumbar muscles and fascia. The investigators will use advanced machine learning approaches and validation in a randomized controlled trial. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Will the deep learning-based marker reliably identify subjects from the 4 different groups: healthy, MP without trigger points, MP with latent trigger points, and MP with active trigger points? - Will the deep learning-based marker accurately classify/predict the severity of MP in subjects with cLBP? Participants in the healthy group will be asked to do the following tasks: - Consent/Enrollment - Measure Height/Weight - Complete Questionnaires on REDCap - Participate in Ultrasound Imaging Experiment Sessions Participants in the chronic low back pain group will be asked to do the following tasks: - Consent/Enrollment - Complete Questionnaires on REDCap - Measure Height/Weight - Undergo a Standardized Clinical Exam - Participate in Ultrasound Imaging Experiment Sessions
No study has investigated the effects of ACT on community-dwelling Chinese older adults. Given that clinical practice guidelines have recommended exercise therapy for treating people with CLBP, a combination of ACT and exercise therapy may yield better clinical outcomes than exercise alone among community-dwelling older adults with CLBP. A double-blinded (participants and statistician) pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate the feasibility and the relative effects of ACT plus back exercise training as compared to exercise alone in improving psychological flexibility, physical wellbeing, and quality of life of community-dwelling older people with CLBP. Further, a qualitative research study will be conducted to understand the experiences of participating in ACT and back exercise training in older people with CLBP (including identifying facilitators and barriers to participation).
This study aims to evaluate the effects of technology-based interventions, specifically web-based platforms, on outcomes of patients with chronic low back pain. The objectives are to develop and evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of these interventions, and to examine factors such as age and gender on implementation and adherence. It consists of an interventional proof-of-concept pilot study with 45 participants randomly divided into 3 groups: an interactive physical activity group, a pre-recorded video physical activity group, and a control group. Assessments will be conducted at weeks 0 and 12 to measure pain intensity with the Canadian adaptation of the National Institutes of Health minimal dataset for chronic low back pain.
The purpose of the current study is to determine the effect of myofascial release of plantar fascia on pain, back function, lumbar flexibility and pain pressure threshold for patients with CNSLBP.
