Filter by:A treatment centered on the person uses an approach capable of considering all the components of disability, from a physical, psychological and social point of views. Some studies have shown that sexual function is disturbed in subjects with low back pain (LBP) and sexual disability can contribute to a deterioration in quality of life. It has also been shown that, in sexually active patients complaining of LBP, sexuality is a significant mediator of the relationship between pain intensity and depressive symptoms. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) includes a specific item to investigate sexual function (item #8). A previous study of ours confirmed the relationship between sexual disability detected by the ODI and the presence of depression, avoidance of activities and rumination (Ferrari et al. 2019 - Digital Object Identifier: 10.1589/jpts.31.360). The discussion on sexual disability among patients and healthcare professionals is very limited, although patients require more involvement from clinicians, especially physiotherapists, as evidenced by our previous qualitative study (Ferrari et al. 2020 - Digital Object Identifier: 10.1080/09638288.2020 .1817161). Although studies on this topic have highlighted the importance of this disability in the life of subjects complaining of LBP, little has been investigated on clinical behaviors of the physiotherapists in this area.
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.
Motorized traction and non-surgical spinal decompression treatments are relatively new treatments for which there is insufficient evidence in the literature. In this study investigators aimed to retrospectively compare the effectiveness of these treatments, which are in the field of their routine practice in their clinic.
Among different spinal manual therapies, which have been reported to be effective in the management of LBP are Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glide (SNAGS) and Vertical Oscillatory Pressure (VOP) . Vertical oscillatory pressure is a derivative of manipulative therapy whereby a gentle vertical manipulative oscillation is applied on spinal vertebrae and has been noted to be effective in management of low back pain . On the contrary, the SNAGS is a manipulative technique that is commonly used in the western countries and found to be effective in reducing pain and disability in the management of mechanical LBP . However, there are limited studies comparing the effects of SNAG and VOP on clinical and psychosocial variables in patients with mechanical LBP in Nigeria. Hence, this study aims at investigating the effects of Nwugarian VOP and SNAG techniques on selected clinical and psychosocial variables in patients with mechanical LBP.
The primary aim of this study is to adapt Cognitive Muscular Therapy so that it can be used to manage chronic low back pain. A secondary aim is to understand the potential therapeutic benefit of this intervention.
The effectiveness of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to reduce pain scores for patients with acute back pain in an ambulatory emergency department (ED) population will be examined in this dual-center, cluster randomized, controlled, open-label study.
This study aims to show the association between the Interleukin-1β (rs 1143627 T/C) gene polymorphism and the patient's pain level, radiological features, functional disability, and spinal flexibility.
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.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of the Muscle Energy Technique in female patients with mechanical low back pain. Methods: A total of 40 female participants aged 30-45 were randomly divided into two groups (Study Group and Control Group). Control group participants were under 10 sessions conventional physical therapy and rehabilitation (TENS, US, hot pack) and performed standard home exercises. Study Group participants were under 8 sessions muscle energy technique in addition to conventional physical therapy and standard home exercises. Pain (Visual Analog Scale-VAS), spinal mobility (Modify Schober Test-MST), flexibility (Fingertip Floor Distance-FFD, Right and Left Lateral Flexion Floor Distance-LFFD), quality of life (Nottingham Health Profile-NHP), disability (Oswestry Disability Index-ODI), kinesiofobia (Tampa Kinesiofobia Scale-TKS) and depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory-BDI) were measured at baseline, after the treatment and 3th months.
