Filter by:The aim of this study was to examine the Turkish validity of the Pain Behavior Scale in a population with chronic non-specific low back pain and to examine both intra-rater and inter-rater reliability. In addition, since this test package includes a series of functional activities, it is aimed to assess pain behaviors during functional movement in this population and to verify the test-retest reliability of physical performance tests.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of brunkow exercise program and lumbar stabilization exercises on pain, range of motion and disability in patients with chronic non- specific low back pain
Most people experience low back pain at some point in their lives, and most low back pain is classified as nonspecific because the factor causing the pain cannot be identified. Current guidelines recommend self-management interventions for the management of nonspecific low back pain. The most commonly used assessment measures measure pain, disability, and quality of life. However, it is important to evaluate patients' ability to manage their nonspecific LBP-specific disease. In 1997, Howie and colleagues introduced the concept of enablement, which represents patients' enablement, understanding of, and ability to cope with their health and illness. They developed the "The Patient Enablement Instrument" to measure patient competence based on the theory that if patients' competence increases, other important outcomes will improve. The Patient Enablement Instrument has since been translated into many languages and has generally demonstrated moderate to good validity and reliability. However, there are limitations to using the Patient Enablement Instrument as an outcome measure. Inspired by the Patient Enablement Instrument, researchers from Denmark and Sweden developed the Patient Enablement Instrument for Back Pain , which could potentially be used as an outcome measure for interventions aimed at improving self-management in people seeking treatment for low back pain. In 2021, Nielsen et al. The validity and reliability of the scale was determined by and its use was recommended in the population experiencing low back pain. The aim of our study is to culturally adapt the Patient Enablement Instrument for Back Pain into Turkish and to examine its validity and reliability.
The aim of this preliminary study suggest the addition of self myofascial release to a therapeutic exercise program in reducing hamstring flexibility and would have additional effects on decreasing pain intensity in individuals with non specific low back pain.
The title of this study is Shirt term effects of ELDOA and slump steyching in mechanical low back pain. Previous studies have identified the effects of ELDOA and slump stretching on mechanical low back pain, but their short term effects have not been compared. This study will focus on the comparison of these techniques and their effectiveness in patients with mechanical low back pain. The purpose of this study is to compare the short term effects of ELDOA and slump stretching on spatiotemporal gait parameters, lumbar ROM and pain in patients with mechanical low back pain. Spatiotemporal gait parameters will be measured by using formulas. Participants of interest would be approached and explained about the research. Informed written consent will be taken. Recruited participants will be allocated to either of the groups through a sealed opaque envelope method. ELODA and slump stretching will be given to groups A and B respectively, along with conventional physical therapy treatment. Inclinometer, NPRS and formulas for spatiotemporal gait parameters will be used as outcome measures.
This study will identify unique signatures that people have which can cause pain by evaluating biological, psychological, and social markers using artificial intelligence. These markers can be used to accurately predict the response of diverse individuals with chronic low back pain (cLBP) to Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. This will help enhance clinician decision-making and the targeted treatment of chronic pain. The overall objective is to use a unique machine learning (ML) approach to determine the biomarker signature of persons undergoing mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) treatment for their chronic low back pain (cLBP). This signature will facilitate clinical prediction and monitoring of patient response to MBSR treatment. The design of the study is a single-arm clinical trial of the evidence-based MBSR program for patients with cLBP.
In the current study we aim to evaluate the effects of a short educational video on improving the belief that "the back is fragile and needs to be protected" among the German speaking Swiss general population. We hypothesize that a short video education program can positively change the assessed back belief among the German speaking general population of Switzerland. To evaluate the outcomes, we will use the 10-item version of the Back Pain Attitude Questionnaire (Back-PAQ). The primary outcome is the second question of the Back-PAQ-10 ("You could injure your back if you are not careful"). The secondary outcome of this study is the total score of the Back-PAQ-10. The design of the present study is a two-group randomized controlled trial, with one intervention and one control group in a 1:1 allocation.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of new implementation strategies designed to increase the number of Primary Care Providers (PCPs) referrals to chiropractic care for lower back pain (LBP) in underserved populations. The investigators plan to pilot the strategies in three qualified community health centers (CHCs) and compare the number of LBP patients who receive referrals before and after implementation. The implementation strategies involve PCP, patient, and organizational interventions. Patients presenting with LBP will be provided educational materials that focus on the safety and effectiveness of chiropractic care as an evidence-based treatment for LBP. Materials will be available in CHC common areas and may be sent to patients by their PCP via patient portal. PCPs will participate in interactive lunch seminars to allow for inter-professional learning for PCPs. They will also participate in a survey regarding their attitudes and beliefs relating to chiropractic care. Currently, many PCPs cannot make chiropractic care referrals in the electronic health record (EHR). The investigators plan to add this option, or make it easier if the referral is already available. This multi-level, multi-component approach will last two months, and will be rolled out sequentially in three clinics using a stepped-wedge design. The ordering of clinics will be random. The primary outcome is the proportion of patients with LBP who received a referral to chiropractic care before and after the intervention. Secondary outcomes include referral to any non-pharmacologic treatment, use of imaging, and prescribed medications.
This is a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial, recruiting 150 patients with chronic non-specific low back pain. The patients will be randomly assigned either to Yanqing Zhitong Ointment acupoint application group (Treatment Group) or the acupuncture group (Control Group) in a 1:1 ratio.
This research aimed to determine the impacts of KT and balance exercises in patients with CLBP of SIJ dysfunction.
