Low Back Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy on Patients With Low Back Pain
This study will examine the effects of a portable of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) device (MD Cure, Aerotel, USA) compared with a sham device on patient-reported outcomes of pain and function in patients with either acute/subacute or chronic low back pain (LBP).
This study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized pilot study comparing usual
care + PEMF with usual care + sham.
The investigators will recruit patients with LBP from the University of Bridgeport
chiropractic clinic, and will enroll 80 total subjects: 40 with acute or subacute LBP, and
40 with chronic LBP. Within each of those populations the investigators will assign 20
subjects to receive usual care + PEMF, and 20 to receive usual care + sham. The
investigators will track any other treatments initiated or discontinued during the trial.
Patients who agree to participate with be randomly given a functional PEMF device or a sham
unit. Patients and clinicians will be blinded to the assignment. All subjects will be given
the same instructions for daily use of the devices, and will continue to receive usual
follow-up at the UBCC clinic as indicated. The investigators will collect patient-reported
measures of pain and function pain at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks, and will collect data
on adverse effects at each visit and at 6 and 12 weeks.
