Filter by:This research aims to assess the cross-cultural validity and reliability of the German version of the Back-PAQ (Back-PAQ_G) within the German-speaking Swiss population. The target population for this study includes individuals with and without back pain and primary care healthcare professionals. This includes physicians, physiotherapists, and nurses. The participants will be asked to fill out the Back-PAQ_G and similiar questionnaires online.
Participants with chronic pain conditions including chronic low back pain and fibromyalgia may benefit from light stimuli presented to the retina to reduce chronic pain severity and pain sensitivity. Participants will be recruited into this study and will be presented with one of three uniform light stimuli via a wide-field ganzfeld in three conditions to determine the retinal mechanisms that reduce pain. This work will lead to a greater understanding of retinal mechanisms that contribute to pain and will assist the design of future studies to harness the potential of light based pain therapies.
Stress Urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common health condition in female population. Although its prevalence increases with the age, women of all ages could be affected. Several epidemiological studies have shown an association of SUI with Low Back Pain (LBP) demonstrating, moreover, that the presence of one condition may predispose the patient to the onset of the other. Concerning the LBP, the clinical practice guidelines provided recommendations for physical rehabilitative treatment. Different techniques and physical exercises have been developed and it is difficult at the date to affirm the superiority of one approach as compared to another. Moreover, the crucial role plays by the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) both as an integral part of trunk and lumbo-pelvic stability and in maintenance of urinary continence, lead the pelvic floor muscles disfunction to be associated both with SUI and LBP, making the PFM rehabilitation a useful approach in both the conditions. In this rehabilitative context the present study aims to verify the effectiveness of a global physical approach based on postural re-education combined to the pelvic floor rehabilitation in women with diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence associated with non-specific chronic low back pain.
Most publications state that core stability exercises (transverse abdominis and multifidus training) can relieve chronic low back pain with or without radiculopathy and improve function, although only temporarily, and may have the same impact as active general exercise so The goal of this study is to detect the effect of retraining the deep core muscles, on pain, disability, and quality of life in patients with chronic Non specific low back pain.
An educational intervention on the neurophysiology of chronic pain will be provided. The content of the intervention will be identical in the experimental groups (group and individual). The intervention has an active educational approach based on reconceptualizing the maladaptive beliefs that influence the fear-avoidance behavior of the participants through updated contents of the neuroscience of pain. The effects of the intervention will be compared between the groups and the influence of the social determinants of health on the effects will also be determined. The investigators hypothesize that there will be significant differences in favor of the group intervention group over the individual intervention groups. Furthermore, the effects will be influenced by the social determinants of health in both experimental groups.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of yoga for patients with chronic low back pain and high risk of poor prognosis. The main question it aims to answer is: - In patients with back pain and high risk of poor prognosis, what is the effectiveness of yoga plus education on reducing pain and disability compared to a control group receiving education alone? A total of 110 patients with chronic low back pain and classified as high risk of poor prognosis according to the Orebro Musculoskeletal Pain Screening Questionnaire (i.e. score ≥ 50 points out of 100) will be recruited for this study. Participants will be randomized into two groups: yoga and control. The yoga group will receive a 3-month course of yoga program consisting of two sessions per week and 3 educational classes. The control group will receive 3 educational classes over a 12-week period. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, at post-intervention (i.e. 3-months post randomization) and at 6-month follow up (i.e. 6-months post randomization).
This study was planned to investigate the effect of back health education given to academicians on physical function and body awareness. The participants of the intervention group received back health education (Back School) in the classroom. After the education program, they participated in exercise training for six weeks (one day a week). The control group was only given an informative brochure on back health and asked to read it.
Condition in which lumbar region experiences stress or extra weight and is arched to point of muscle pain or spasms is called Lumbar hyperlordosis.The study findings compared the effectiveness of frog leg technique and standard exercise therapy in management of low back pain due to lumbar lordosis.
The goal of this observational trial is to compare the health history and motion capabilities of participants with low back pain disorders to participants with healthy spines. The main question[s] it aims to answer are to: 1. Primary outcomes of this research effort include the development of composite measures or digital biomarkers to track functional recovery over time and predict duty or work status outcomes (return-to-full duty/work, limited duty/work restrictions or medical discharge/long-term disability). 2. Secondary outcomes of this research effort include characterization of motion assessment utility to predict reinjury risk and evaluate intervention effectiveness. In addition, exploratively, the investigators will determine biopsychosocial profiles of low back pain, and neck pain military populations to identify low back and neck pain phenotypes. Participants will complete questionnaires and wear a motion monitor that will assess the participant's back and/or neck. This session will be approximately 40-70 minutes. The research team will follow up with participants at 3 month, 6 months, and 1 year to complete a short series of questionnaires and a motion assessment test.
The purpose of this study is to collect clinical and radiological mid-term (min. 1 year) data on the ArcadiusXP L® lumbar stand-alone cage in a post-market clinical follow-up study (PMCF) limited to 60 patients.
