Filter by:This study will evaluate the effect of Burst spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in the treatment of painful radiculopathy in lower extremity(ies) with or without lower back pain. It is a multicenter double-blinded "n-of-1" RCT with repeated two-week periods of Burst SCS or sham in randomised order.
The objective of this study is to perform a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial to compare radiographic fusion rates and patient reported outcomes, including pain and function preoperatively and postoperatively, using Depuy ViviGen® Cellular Bone Matrix mixed with cortical/cancellous allograft in conjunction with an approved Depuy Synthes pedicle screw system compared to autograft mixed with cortical/cancellous allograft in conjunction with the same DePuy Synthes pedicle screw system used for a one or two - level posterolateral lumbar fusion.
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new pain medication in development, clonidine micropellet. Participants will receive a single injection of either clonidine micropellet or sham injection for the treatment of low back and leg pain from sciatica.
The primary aim of the present project is to compare the effectiveness of surgery and nonsurgical treatment in patients with cervical radiculopathy caused by either disc herniation or spondylosis. Secondary aims are to evaluate cost-effectiveness and predicting factors of success of the two treatments, and to explore the terms success rate and expectations by asking the patients to fill in their expected primary outcome score at baseline.
This study will evaluate effect of soft tissue mobilization with and with out neural mobilization in cervical radiculopathy, half of the subjects will receive treatment of soft tissue mobilization along with neural mobilization whereas half of the subjects will receive only soft tissue mobilization.
Patient outcomes and satisfaction are an ever-increasing priority in surgical specialties. Cryotherapy has been utilized following spine surgery as an adjunct therapy to reduce postoperative inflammation and improve patient outcomes. However, limited studies have investigated the effect of cryotherapy on postoperative pain and narcotics use. Fountas et al. performed a randomized controlled trial to assess the impact of postoperative cryotherapy following single-level lumbar microdiscectomy. The authors reported patients receiving cryotherapy required significantly less pain medication (0.058 mg/kg/hr versus 0.067 mg/kg/hr, p<0.001) and had shorter hospital stays (1.71 days versus 2.65 days, p<0.001) as compared to the control group. In another randomized trial of single-level lumbar discectomy patients, Murata et al. demonstrated cryotherapy to have no significant effect on VAS inpatient pain scores or postoperative blood loss.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of two treatment interventions in patients with cervical radiculopathy. One group will receive a concurrent approach using traction and neuromobilizations. The other group will receive the sequential approach of traction and neuromobilizations
The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of slider and tensioner techniques on pain, hip and knee ROM in lumbosacral radiculopathy patients with peripheral sensitization. A secondary purpose was to evaluate the correlation between these outcomes measurements.
Low back pain (LBP) is a common condition and has a significant impact on the individual in terms of pain and disability. Lumbar radiculopathy occurs often with LBP and may be the result of a lumbar herniated disc which will irritate a lumbar nerve trunk resulting in intraneural inflammation. There is evidence supporting the use of manual therapies of lumbar radiculopathy. One potential manual therapy is neurodynamic mobilization technique. No scientific evidence, based on a RCT, exists that this particular approach is beneficial for individuals with LBP and lumbar radiculopathy
A prospective pilot study will be conducted to investigate the effectiveness and safety in herniated lumbar disc (HLD) patients receiving integrative Korean medicine treatment including Doin (conduction exercise) at a Korean medicine hospital through assessment of pain, functional disability, and quality of life.
