Filter by:The goal of this study is to determine the effects of a corticosteroid administered to the psoas muscle following a transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) on postoperative hip flexor weakness and thigh pain and numbness.
ESP is the deepest back muscle originating from the transverse processes of the vertebrae. Blocks applied to this region are effective for a longer time and in the broader area than those applied to superficial muscles. Recently, pulsed radiofrequency treatments have also been performed in myofascial pain, and successful results have been obtained. The investigators aim to investigate whether there is a difference between these two applications in terms of treatment efficacy.
In the Emergency Department, there is no standard of care for pain medication distribution for children with an acute musculoskeletal injury when there is no fracture present. Currently, ibuprofen is a favorable choice for the treatment, but studies have shown concern for delayed healing activity associated with NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. Homeopathic Arnica Montana is a well-established complimentary medicine and may provide a good alternative for managing acute pain from musculoskeletal injuries, especially in children, given the palatability and rarity of side effects. This study aims to compare usual care vs. usual care plus Arnica 1M* (oral) or the placebo for management of pain in acute musculoskeletal extremity injuries without fracture by utilizing a double-blind clinical trial design. The primary outcome is to determine if subjects use less ibuprofen when given Arnica 1M.
This study will measure the effects of topical application of sweet marjoram essential oil + grapeseed oil with massage on uterine cramping/pain post-IUD insertion/placement. The intention is to conduct a pilot study that could give a first look at the data to determine whether this line of research is worth pursuing with more time, effort, and resources. The results of this pilot study will provide adequate data (e.g., variance estimates) needed for obtaining reasonably reliable sample size estimates if larger studies are warranted in the future.
The main aim of this study is to determine the effects of short-term treatment with hesperidin on COVID-19 symptoms in comparison with a placebo. Treatment effects will be observed through a symptoms diary that will be completed by participants throughout the study and by taking the oral temperature daily.
The purpose of this double-blinded, parallel group randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effects of high definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) on an experimental prolonged pain model in healthy subjects.
Basal measurements are taken in relation to the study variables. Immediately subjects perform eccentric exercise on right hamstrings to develop delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Measurements of the study variables are taken in the same conditions 48, 96 and 168 hours after the exercise to study the evolution of the variables while recovering from DOMS.
