Filter by:In France the prevalence of low back pain is 70 to 80 %. It's the leading cause of health expenditure in Europe and costs 900 million euros per year to health insurance in France. This is the second reason to consult a general practitioner. Acute low back pain is defined as low back pain lasts less than 6 weeks. It represents 60 to 70 % of low back pain but only 20% of the costs induced by low back pain in general. In fact, acute low back pain often heals spontaneously. Risk factors for acute low back pain and risk factors for chronic low back pain have been the subject of many publications. They remain very difficult to prevent in practice because of their multiplicity. Preventing acute low back pain is part of the prevention of chronic low back pain. Patient care management of low back pain is well codified and consensual in the various international recommendations. However, their application is sometimes very disparate and bad habits on both patients and professionals persist. Advices recommended in the case of low back pain are widely disseminated but their applications are little studied. In 2017, in France, health insurance started a "back pain" prevention campaign with the objective of raising awareness of good attitudes in the event of back pain. It made an initial assessment of the different knowledges concerning spinal pain in the general population but also in the medical population with the aim of improving them. It appears that number of patients would not consult physician in this case. The many proposals of care and the diversity of medical professionals, paramedics and other stakeholders, proposing to cure low back pain form as many different clinical pathways. Use of alternative or unconventional medicines is poorly assessed. In this context, it seems relevant to evaluate patient clinical pathways and patients' attitudes.
Telerehabilitation enables patients to easily adapt to home exercise programs and to be monitored remotely by their clinicians. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the home exercise program, which is integrated into 8-week remote asynchronous video telerehabilitation sessions, on clinical status in terms of pain, functionality, quality of life parameters, as well as patient expectation, motivation, and satisfaction levels.
The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between hamstring length and gluteus maximus strength with and without normalization in patients with mechanical low back pain
The purpose of this study is to find out the additional effect of global re-education program with hamstring stretching in patients with low back pain.
Low back pain is frequently seen in the adolescent age group, with a prevalence approaching that of the adult age group. The most common type is non-specific, self-limiting low back pain. LDH is rare in children and adolescents and generally presents with low back pain, with or without radiculopathy. The condition is usually unilateral (especially L4-5 or L5-S1). LDH is also mostly central type. Although there are many studies that have investigated the relationship between paraspinal muscle volumes and LBP and/or LDH in the adult age group, there are very few studies in adolescents. The principal aim of this study was to compare MF, ES, and PM volumes in adolescents with LBP with and without LDH using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to determine whether these two conditions cause paraspinal muscle volume loss.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation alone and in combination with motor control exercises on pain and disability for patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.
Non-specific low back pain is the most cause of adult disability throughout life. Its prevalence widens in young adults. Background of this pathology can be multifactorial. One of the most common is poor core stability and overloading of the local tissues as a result. Among treatment methods stabilizing training is commonly used with good effects. This form of therapy affects the transverse abdomen and multifidus muscles. To assess these structures several methods can be applied, e.g. sonofeedback. Our hypothesis claims that the core muscles morphology will change over the training process duration, in result, the analgesic effect will be achieved.
This study is a single blind, randomized controlled trial. condition/disease: acute low-back pain treatment/intervention: Motion Style Acupuncture Treatment using Traction (T-MSAT)
Thigh muscles flexibility deficits contribute to handicap in chronic low back pain patients. The study aims to evaluate the immediate effect of thigh muscles stretching in patients with chronic low back pain. The investigation team suppose that flexibility improvement could be detected by instrumented clinical measurements and such difference could be related to psycho-social factors evaluated by questionnaires.
The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of breathing exercises combined with core stabilization exercises in mothers with chronic non-specific low back pain of children with special health care needs.
