Filter by:Comparison of Dexamethasone versus Depo Medrol when used in lumbar epidural injections will be conducted on subjects that have not had previous injections or have not had an injection in the last 12 months. Subjects must be receiving one level injection and not had prior surgery at that level.
Herniated disc sometimes cause back pain radiating down to a leg. This pain can be so severe that it is functionally disabling. The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if corticosteroid medication, delivered directly to the area near the herniated disc, can improve the pain and functional disability associated with a herniated disc.
The most common chronic low back pain conditions are a consequence of disc disease as well as muscular and bony etiologies. The discs degenerate and weaken, bulge and are pushed into the space containing the spinal cord or a nerve root resulting in severe pain. A common treatment is then surgery. Whole-body vibration combined with un-weighting traction and specific manual mobilization plus active therapeutic exercise seems to treat chronic low back pain by non-invasively firing muscles of the lumbar spine. The investigators are seeking to show such therapy reduces the need for surgery and significantly out performs traditional physical as the preferred conservative treatment.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of etoricoxib on pain patients. The investigators assume that patients with neuropathic pain will have greater pain relief then patients on placebo.
This was a randomized, blinded study of transforaminal epidural injection of clonidine versus a similar injection of corticosteroid for acute lumbosacral radiculopathy. The hypothesis was that clonidine will be as effective as steroid for this condition.
The purpose of this study is to compare the fusion rates between the EBI, LLC C-Tek™ Anterior Cervical Plate, Slotted Hole Design versus the Fixed Hole Design.
The purpose of this study is to compare two surgery methods on lumbar spinal stenosis: minimal invasive decompression and X-stop. It is a prospective randomized multicenter study including patients with lumbar spinal stenosis on one or two levels, and neurogenic intermittent claudication. Effect assessment will include measures of pain and self-evaluated health condition, a full economical evaluation, and areal measurements (MR imaging and roentgen analyses)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dexamethasone is effective in the treatment of pain and disability resulting from a compressed spinal nerve in the neck (cervical radiculopathy).
