Patients With Lumbar Spinal Stenosis With Balance Disorder

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

It is seen that patients with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis often experience balance problems. Although the relationship between muscle thickness and balance has been explained, there are insufficient studies investigating the relationship between balance problems and muscle thickness in patients with LSS. In addition, no study has been found comparing the difference in muscle thickness and cross-sectional area in LSS patients with poor and normal balance. In addition, in LSS, pain, disability and fear of falling in balance disorders are nor clear. The aim of our study is to examine the relationship between balance and biopsychosocial factors that can affect it.

Clinical Trial Description

The stability and balance of the lumbar spine depends on the paraspinal muscles surrounding it. In addition, the atrophy of the muscle in this area leads to deterioration of the body's stability. The multifidus muscle is important for the lumbar region due to its multiple connections. Today, morphological factors of paraspinal muscles are being investigated. The degeneration occurring in these muscles also causes a decrease in the thickness and cross-sectional areas of the muscle. This condition is associated with loss of balance in various populations. However, this relationship has not been adequately investigated in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. At the same time, the intensity of pain affects balance and causes disruptions. Balance problems in older adults can lead to falls, leading to vertebral and femoral neck fractures. These injuries cause a decrease in quality of life. When the literature is examined, it is seen that patients with LSS often have balance problems. Parameters such as muscle mass, pain, disability and fear of falling affect this factor. However, although the relationship between muscle thickness and balance has been described in various populations, there are insufficient studies investigating the relationship between balance problems and muscle thickness in patients with LSS. In addition, no study has been found comparing the difference in muscle thickness and cross-sectional area in LSS patients with poor and normal balance. In addition, it is observed that biopsychosocial factors such as pain, disability and fear of falling in balance disorders are not adequately explained. In this context, our study aims to The aim of our study is to examine the relationship between balance and biopsychosocial factors that can affect it. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
