Filter by:The ultimate goal of this study is to interpret Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Scale into Urdu and analyse its reliability and validity in the population of Pakistan lumber radiculopathy patients. Examine its correlation with Quebec back pain disability scale and the visual analogue scale, as well as the Roland-Morris disability questionnaire.
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal anesthetic routine for lumbar decompression surgery. General Anesthesia is the standard of care in spine surgery. Spinal anesthesia in decompressive procedures can be the new standard of care. Recently, it has been found that regional analgesia is option that has been shown to improve pain and opioid-related outcomes after spine surgery, but has not yet been studied in combination with spinal anesthesia. This is study that consists of two groups: standard of care general anesthesia with a nerve block and a spinal anesthesia with nerve block. Patients are randomized to either of the two groups. There will be 71 patients enrolled in each group for this study.
This study is to determine whether or not the addition of liposomal bupivacaine in an ESP block will have long term benefits for patients undergoing lumbar spinal fusion surgery. Given previous studies found long term benefits from liposomal bupivacaine, the hypothesis is that patients will have decreased opioid usage and improved pain scores when compared to a standard ESP block with plain 0.25% bupivacaine.
This study is aim to disclose the effect of contrast media, which used in epidural steroid injections, on the parameters of thyroid function tests (TFTs). The patients who underwent an epidural steroid injection were included. The investigators hypothesized that contrast media owing to contain iodine may impair the values of TFTs.
Piriformis syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder that is characterized by piriformis muscle tenderness, hip, and leg pain, and may be accompanied by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve under the piriformis muscle. There are many studies in the literature to establish diagnostic criteria for piriformis syndrome, and there is still no clear consensus on these criteria. However, cases with lumbar radiculopathy were accepted as exclusion criteria in all these studies. The aim of our study is to investigate whether lumbar radiculopathy and piriformis syndrome can coexist. For this reason, a diagnostic piriformis muscle injection under ultrasonography guidance is planned for patients with lumbar radiculopathy who also have a prediagnosis of piriformis syndrome clinically.
The aim of study will be comparative effectiveness of the 2d and 3d lumbar traction on pain and functional disability in lumbar radiculopathy. This study will be useful for the physiotherapists to know which traction equipment will be more effective for the treatment of the lumbar radiculopathy
There is lack of structured pain neuroscience education in patients with lumber radiculopathy. Previously researches were done on pain neuroscience education before surgery of lumber radiculopathy. However this study will provide structured educational plan about pain neuroscience education along with therapeutic exercises to positively influence pain knowledge, dysfunction, and fear avoidance, limitation in movement and healthcare utilization in patients who have diagnosed with lumbar radiculopathy and don't want to undergo surgery.
The study is conducted to compare pain relief, accuracy and safety and radiation exposure of selective lumbar nerve root injection for lumbar radicular pain using ultrasound guidance versus fluoroscopy guidance
The goal of this study is to compare the effectiveness of mulligan traction Straight Leg Raise and mulligan's bent leg rise and neural mobilization to conventional therapies in order to assess which treatment is more successful in treating lumbar radiculopathy-related dysfunction.
This study compared the effects of mechanical and manual traction on pain, disability and lumbar spinal curvature in patients with discogenic low back pain
