NCT ID: NCT06190041 Not yet recruiting - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

Kinesiophobia in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain

Start date: March 10, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Low back pain is an important health problem that is common in public and causes serious socio-economic losses. Low back pain that persists for more than 12 weeks is defined as chronic low back pain. The prognosis in patients with chronic low back pain is generally not good and it significantly affects the patient's daily living activities and workforce. In the clinical course of chronic low back pain, patients generally reduce some activities or avoid them altogether due to fear of pain or concern about worsening of the initial lesion. This fear is called "kinesiophobia", which is an important factor in the chronicity of low back pain and the resulting functional disabilities. Kinesiophobia causes loss of flexibility, decreased muscle performance, muscle wasting, and all of these lead to a decrease in social and physical activities, which perpetuates and aggravates the disability. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the frequency of kinesiophobia in chronic low back pain patients and age, gender, body mass index, educational status, occupation, pain intensity and disability, and to examine the effect of kinesiophobia on quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT05821140 Recruiting - Child Development Clinical Trials

KIDYCROC
Start date: July 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prospective Study and Analysis of Biomechanical Parameters of Human Movement Based on Disability Indicators in Older Adults

MOBA-P
Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Mobility loss in older people is caused by a variety of aging impairments in various body systems.The disability, which includes physical impairments and resulting activity limitations or participation restrictions, can arise acutely from a catastrophic illness or, more commonly, from subacute functional decline without a clear triggering event. Lower physical functioning was associated with higher healthcare utilization and expenditures, leading to a large burden on government-funded healthcare services. Early identification of mobility changes and intervening in them would likely be the most effective strategy to reduce the burden of disability in the population. Overall, there is a need to develop strategies to reduce disability among older adults in which kinetic and kinematic characteristics are used to predict disability status. Accordingly, the purpose of this prospective cohort is to identify biomechanical parameters, from the gait, sit-to-stand, timed up and go, stair ascend and descend, and quiet standing functional tasks, as predictors of changes in health and disability status in older adults. This research was funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), NORTE 2020, and European Social Fund of European Union, grant number 2020.05356.BD and through R&D Units funding (UIDB/05210/2020), Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), Portugal and the European Union.

NCT ID: NCT05611723 Recruiting - Disability Clinical Trials

Study and Analysis of Biomechanical Parameters of Human Movement Based on Disability Indicators in Older Adults

MOBA
Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Older adults develop modifications in the execution of movement that lead to impairments in activities of daily living performance. Accordingly, there is a need for technological advances in devices that assist older adults targeting improvements in parameters of movement performance that have the highest impact on the skills of daily living. Therefore, to gather the parameters of movement impacting daily living activities, the main goal of this study is to perform a comparative analysis of the biomechanical movement parameters between older adults with and without disability, performing the tasks: gait, sit-to-stand, timed up and go, quiet standing and climb and descend stairs. This work was supported by theFundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), [grant number 2020.05356.BD] and through R&D Units funding [UIDB/05210/2020], Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), Portugal and the European Union.

NCT ID: NCT05394363 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Generation Victoria Cohort 2020s: A Statewide Longitudinal Cohort Study of Victorian Children and Their Parents

GenV
Start date: October 4, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Generation Victoria (GenV) is a longitudinal, population-based study of Victorian children and their parents that will bring together data on a wide range of conditions, exposures and outcomes. GenV blends study-collected, study-enhanced and linked data. It will be multi-purpose, supporting observational, interventional, health services and policy research within the same cohort. It is designed to address physical, mental and social issues experienced during childhood, as well as the antecedents of a wide range of diseases of ageing. It seeks to generate translatable evidence (prediction, prevention, treatments, services) to improve future wellbeing and reduce the future disease burden of children and adults. The GenV Cohort 2020s is open to all babies born over a two-year period, and their parents, residing in the state of Victoria Australia. The GenV Cohort 2020s is preceded by an Advance Cohort of babies born between 5 Dec 2020 and 3 October 2021, and their parents. This comprises all families recruited at GenV's Vanguard hospital (Joan Kirner Women's and Children's) and at birthing hospitals throughout Victoria as GenV scaled up to commence recruiting for the GenV Cohort 2020s. The Advance Cohort have ongoing and full participation in GenV for their lifetime unless they withdraw but may have less complete data and biosamples.

Ohio RETAIN Impact Evaluation

Start date: January 19, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The Retaining Employment and Talent after Injury/Illness Network (RETAIN) demonstration is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) and the Social Security Administration (SSA) to improve employment outcomes for individuals who experience injuries or illnesses that put them at risk of exiting the labor force and relying on disability programs and other public supports in the long term. RETAIN projects include a combination of medical provider services, stay-at-work/return-to-work (SAW/RTW) coordination services, and other SAW/RTW services. This evaluation will focus on the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services' implementation of "Ohio RETAIN." The evaluation will document how the project is implemented, describe enrollees, estimate the project's impacts on enrollees' outcomes, and assess whether the benefits outweigh the costs.
