Filter by:The primary aim of this study is to determine if osteopathic manipulative treatment is as effective to traditional lidocaine injection technique in treating myofascial trigger points in regard to post intervention pain intensity and quality of life.
This is a non-significant risk, multi-center, randomized, active-controlled study to compare the effectiveness of two digital therapies in the management of fibromyalgia over 12 weeks. The primary endpoint is mean change from baseline to Week 12 in the weekly revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ-R) total score.
The management of chronic pains is challenging and fraught with limitations. Fibromyalgia is a common pain disorder characterized by chronic widespread pains, associated with fatigue and impaired quality of life. Fibromyalgia affects millions of people and is among the most common reasons for consulting with a rheumatologist. The food and drug administration (FDA) approved three medications to treat fibromyalgia, though there are many patients for whom these medications are ineffective, poorly tolerated or cost-prohibitive. Accordingly, there exists a need for novel therapeutics. The researchers would like to test the therapeutic efficacy of a non-pharmacologic non-interventional bedside technique called vestibular caloric stimulation (VCS). VCS, irrigating the external ear canal with water, is a simple, non-invasive, cost-free procedure with preliminary data suggesting potential for improving pain. VCS is a form of neuromodulation and there are anatomically defined pathways elucidated to help explain how this works. There currently exists limited data on the topic, only case reports and case series. Given a clear need for additional therapeutics in many patients with fibromyalgia, the researchers have elected to conduct this trial.
The purpose of the study is to find the effects of integrated neuromuscular inhibition technique on upper trapezius trigger points in patients with non specific neck pain. A randomized control trial was conducted at Iqbal hospital. The sample size was 24calculated through open-epitool.But 30 patients were added in the study to increase the statistical power of analysis.The participants were divided into two interventional groups each having 15 participants. The study duration was six months. Sampling technique applied was Purposive sampling for recruitment and group randomization using sealed envelope method. Only 25 to 45 years participants (both male and female) with upper trapezius trigger points and non specific neck pain of less than 3 months were included in the study. Tools that were used in this study are NDI questionnaire, NPRS and inclinometer. Data was collected at baseline , 2nd and 4th of treatment. Data was analyzed through SPSS version 20.
Aims:The study was conducted to investigate the effect of Yoga-based exercise program on pain, range of motion(ROM), sleep quality, depression and quality of life in female patients with myofascial pain dysfunction(MPD) of temporomandibular disorders . Methods: MPD will be included in the study. Yoga based exercise program will be performed to the first group as 3 times in a week for 6 weeks. The second group will be the control group. Outcome measurements; pain ,sleep quality, depression and quality of life will be evaluated. Evaluations will be repeated before and 6 weeks after exercise.
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of face-to-face and internet-based BBAT in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome. H0: Face-to-face and internet-based CFT have superiority over each other in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome. H1: In patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome, face-to-face and internet-based CFT have no superiority over each other.
This prospective, observational cohort pilot study compared pain phenotyping and functional measures in 30 participants with non-acute neck and/or shoulder girdle pain consistent with primary myofascial pain at 3-months following a physical therapy referral to study the impact of their baseline degree of pain amplification.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of gamified sensory perceptual training in people with fibromyalgia. The primary aim is to determine the feasibility of at-home somatosensorial training for people with fibromyalgia. The researchers are determining the feasibility of using this device to decrease chronic neuropathic pain in people with fibromyalgia. The secondary aim is to survey participants' subjective report of clinical change after this program.
Summary Purpose: Determining the Effect of Therapeutic Exercise and Thetahealing on Pain and Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia Methods: Between February and April 2021, the study started with 58 people who wanted to participate in the study from online platforms and the study was completed with 34 people. Findings: According to the power analysis, at least 34 people will participate in the study. Participants will be divided into 2 groups as experimental and control, thetahealing and exercise will be applied to the experimental group and only exercise sessions will be applied to the control group. The study will be 2 sessions of online group exercises per week for 6 weeks and 1 session of tehetahealing will be applied to the experimental group for 6 weeks. The evaluation will be carried out in the first week before the sessions start and in the last week after the sessions are completed in the form of an online survey.Summary Purpose: Determining the Effect of Therapeutic Exercise and Thetahealing on Pain and Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia Methods: Between February and April 2021, the study started with 58 people who wanted to participate in the study from online platforms and the study was completed with 34 people.

This study aims to examine the effect of deep tissue massage (DTM) on myofascial trigger point (MTrP) number, neck range of motion (ROM), pain, disability and quality of life in patients with Myofacial pain syndrome (MPS).
