Filter by:Chronic low back pain is highly prevalent in US adults and is a major cause of missed work days and disability. While several treatment options exist, chronic opioids are commonly used for these conditions even though there are limited data supporting efficacy, and clear evidence of harm associated with chronic opioid administration. Virtual reality has been proposed as a treatment option that may lead to decreased pain and improved physical functioning, while avoiding the harms associated with medication management. This study is intended to obtain preliminary safety and efficacy data to guide the design of a larger clinical trial.
The study is a single-blind controlled randomized clinical trial.
Pelvic pain syndromes have a high prevalence of up to 8% in the general population and up to 50% following pelvic trauma and pelvic surgery. While medical management is the initial therapeutic step, it is often ineffective with surgical decompression and resection of the putative nerves being the ultima ratio. Cryoablation can induce long-lasting nerve conduction blocks with resultant pain relief for several months. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of magnetic resonance (MR) neurography-guided cryoanalgesia for the treatment of pelvic and associated pain syndromes.
This study explores the experience of physiotherapists and patients using the Pain Navigator Tool during outpatient musculoskeletal consultations.
Objective of study is to evaluate the procedural success rate, clinical effectiveness, and heath-economic profile using the Intercept Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System in adult subjects with chronic low back pain in the post-market setting

National clinical trial, phase III, monocentric, randomized, double-blind, controlled, parallel, study of superiority, in which two hundred and thirty four (234) participants of both sexes, aged equal or more than 18 years and equal or less than 54 years, will be randomly allocated in one of two treatment groups. The first group will use Dorilax® plus thermal band and the second group will use thermal band plus placebo. The results will show the efficacy and security of Dorilax® and compare the efficiency of Dorilax® and thermal band.
Participants with low back pain who are referred for physical therapy will be randomized to routine physical therapy or routine physical therapy plus receiving a postural training device
This is a randomized controlled trial project to analyze the effectiveness of lumbar motor control exercises and lumbar resistance training on pain, functional, kinesiophobia and trunk strength in individual with chronic low back pain. The project has two parallel arms and will be supervised by physiotherapists (motor control exercises) and physical education professionals (resistance training). The participants will be Militaries of the Military Fire Department of the Federal District who presents in the recruitment regular low back pain more than 3 months. The two groups will be supervised in12 weeks of exercises in the Physical Activity Center of Military Fire Department of the Federal District. Our hypotheses is that the resistance training effects wil be superior to motor control exercises only for trunk strength (isokinetic flexion and extension).
Low back pain is a leading cause of disability and health care costs in the United States, and treatments are ineffective for many patients. Epidural steroid injections are a common treatment, but their efficacy has been questioned and for many patients they do not provide complete relief. The investigators hypothesize, based on preclinical studies, that lack of complete efficacy may be due to the fact that clinically used steroids activate not only the intended drug target, the glucocorticoid receptor, but also the pro-inflammatory mineralocorticoid receptor. To test this hypothesis, this pilot study will recruit patients scheduled for lumbar epidural steroid injections for degenerative disc disease, and randomize them to receive a concurrent treatment with oral eplerenone (a clinically approved antagonist of the mineralocorticoid receptor) or placebo for 10 days starting just after the epidural injection. At several time points during the following year, subjects will answer the Oswestry Low Back Pain Questionnaire, to report on both pain and functional outcomes.
