Filter by:The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of anaesthesia methods on intraocular pressure during lumbar disc surgery performed in the prone position.
Spinal mobilization methods are passive maneuvers that are made lighter and do not exceed the physiological range of motion in order to increase joint mobility. Mobilization applications are easier and safer than manipulation applications involving forceful pushing. Although there are many literatures reporting the therapeutic efficacy of long-term mobilization applications on LDH, there is no study on the effect of applications on radiological findings of LDH. In the light of the information mentioned above, the aim of this study is; To examine the effect of mobilization applications on radiological findings and functional level in patients with LDH
The aim of this study is to assess and compare the effects of ultrasound therapy and High Intensity Laser Therapy, as the treatment option in case of lumbar disc herniation.
This study which was planned to investigate the factors affecting m. erector spinae (ES), m. multifidus (MF), m. psoas major (PM) and m. quadratus lumborum (QL), which stabilize the lumbar region in the case of disc herniation. In this study, the effects of disc herniation, herniation severity, age, and spinal biomechanics were investigated.
Intervertebral disc degenerations are the most important cause of chronic low back pain resulting in job loss and associated socio-economic problems in developed and developing industrial countries 1. More than 40% of the Turkish population has experienced low back pain at least once in their life 2. Intervertebral disc degenerations Lumbal Disc Herniation (LDH), which is frequently represented, can cause motor and sensory losses in the lower extremity by compressing the spinal nerves. Lumbar disc surgery procedure is inevitable in case of advanced functional losses in the related sensory dermatomes and muscles after LDH. Lumbal disc surgeries are performed for the purpose of decompression of nerve pressures on nerves due to advanced disc herniation. they suggest 4. One of the most common LDH problems in the community is low foot problems due to weakness of the tibialis anterior muscle, which occurs due to L4-L5 disc herniation, and the accompanying functional disorders. In disc herniations at this level, the activation of the tibialis anterior muscle, which is compressed by the nerve root, decreases compared to the medial gastrocnemius muscle, where it works as an antagonist, and this leads to functional limitations, especially in gait and balance activities. Spinal stabilization exercises are a concept that emerged from the idea that exercise is important for the provision and preservation of functionality of people with low back and back pain due to LDH. According to this exercise approach, muscles are of great importance in providing lumbar region stability. These muscles are classified as general (global) stabilizing muscles, which are dynamic, phasic, and power-producing muscles, and regional (local) stabilizing muscles, which are postural, tonic, and stabilizer muscles. The main muscles responsible for spine stabilization are multifidus, transversus abdominus and pelvic floor muscles 6. It is argued that increased lumbo-pelvic motor control thanks to spine stabilization facilitates lower extremity activities, especially flexion and extension movements in the sagittal plane. Patients with LDH who increase their motor strength can use lower extremity movements more functionally. The aim of this study was to (1) determine the activation rates of the tibialis anterior and medial gastrocnemius muscles during different functional activities in the lower extremities affected and unaffected by LDH, (2) to compare the rates of the affected extremity to the rates of the healthy extremity during coactivation of the transversus abdominus and multifidus muscles (spinal stabilization basic exercise). to determine whether it is close or not. According to the hypothesis of this study, the researchers thought that the functional activities performed together with the activation of the transversus abdominus and multifidus muscles would show coactivation behaviors at a rate closer to the healthy extremity.
The aim of the FUSE-ML study is to develop and externally validate a robust ML-based prediction tool based on multicenter data from a range of international centers that will provide individualized risk-benefit profiles tailored to each patient undergoing lumbar spinal fusion for degenerative disease. Data will be collected by a range of international centers.
Randomize Everyone is a research project to develop new informatics systems and statistical methods for supporting randomization processes in EHR systems to do comparative effectiveness research. Two demonstration projects are being conducted in the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, designed to evaluate different weight loss interventions and common practices in the treatment of chronic low back pain.
Efficiency of the conservative mechanical lumbosacral nerve root decompression, as an adjunct to pharmacological treatment, in the case of acute lumbosacral radiculopathy.
Caudal epidural injection (CEI) is effective for spinal pain. However, intravascular injection may occur during CEI, which can lead to hematoma, neurologic deficit and local anesthetics systemic toxicity. Whitacre type needle has been reported to be effective for reducing intravascular injection during transforaminal epidural injection. In this study, we compared the Chiba needle and Whitacre needle on incidence of intravascular injection during CEI.
Prospective, multi-center, single-arm clinical study to assess the performance of an Hernia Blocking System in preventing clinically symptomatic recurrent lumbar disc herniation.
