NCT ID: NCT03863769 Completed - Clinical trials for Spinal Stenosis Lumbar

Chiropractic Distraction Spinal Manipulation- Lumbar Stenosis Study

Stenosis
Start date: March 14, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

To assess the effect of chiropractic distraction manipulation on postural sway and simple measures of performance in patients with the clinical diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis.

NCT ID: NCT03863067 Completed - Clinical trials for Spinal Stenosis, Lumbar Region, With Neurogenic Claudication

Clinical Effectiveness, Security And Radiological Changes In Epiduroscopy For Lumbar Stenosis

Start date: October 15, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

It will be done a prospective Study involving 38 patients with lumbar stenosis. A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging study and a electromyographic study will be done previously and 3 months after the epiduroscopy to confirm radiologic or neurophysiological changes. During the technic it will be used different instruments, an endoscope developed for its use in the epidural space (Resascope), a Fogarty balloon (Resaloon) to dilate the space near the epidural recess where it will be try to decrease the ligamentum flavum using the Resaflex, an instrument with Quantum Molecular Resonance for tissue coablation, in order to get less symptomatic lumbar stenosis. The investigators will compare qualitative and quantitative variables at baseline and 1, 3, 6, ant 12 months after the epiduroscopy.

NCT ID: NCT03753945 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Spine MRI in Patients With Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)

Start date: March 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of patients implanted with deep brain stimulation (DBS) is under strict safety guidelines. Depending on the body part being imaged, the safety may vary. Many DBS patients will need a spine MRI based on their clinical symptoms. However, the vendor safety guidelines are limiting in terms of possible MR pulse sequences. Based on phantom safety data, we designed a set of MR pulse sequences deemed as safe as possible and the protocol allows acquisition of diagnostic quality MRI images.

NCT ID: NCT03647501 Completed - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Lumbar Fusion With Nexxt Spine 3D-Printed Titanium Interbody Cages

Start date: August 22, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess and compare radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who are to undergo combined interbody/posterolateral lumbar fusion procedures, supplemented with pedicle screw instrumentation, using one of the following interbody cages; the Nexxt Spine Nexxt MatrixxTM 3D-printed titanium cage or the HonourTM poly-ether-ether-ketone cage.

NCT ID: NCT03560401 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Is Postoperative Bracing Necessary After Spine Surgery for Degenerative Conditions

Start date: October 20, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study was started from Oct. 2015. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of bracing following transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in patients with degenerative lumbar spine diseases.

NCT ID: NCT03538093 Completed - Clinical trials for Spinal Stenosis Lumbar

Lumbar Stabilization Exercises in Adult Patients With Lumbar Arthrodesis Surgery

Start date: June 21, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine which type of lumbar stabilization exercise is more effective to improve functionality and reduce pain in patients operated with lumbar arthrodesis, to guide clinical practice in the rehabilitation of these patients.

NCT ID: NCT03532945 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

A Follow-up Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Novomax in Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion

Start date: October 28, 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a long-term follow-up study for more than 3 years to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bioactive glass-ceramic intervertebral spacer (Novomax) in posterior lumbar interbody fusion.

NCT ID: NCT03532230 Completed - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Cost Effectiveness of OMT for Chronic Low Back Pain

Start date: March 22, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The specific aim of this study is to conduct a prospective, multicenter cohort study over four months to compare the cost of standard of allopathic care (control group, N=90) versus standard of care plus osteopathic manipulative treatment (experimental group, N=90) in a cohort of 180 consecutive patients seeking treatment for chronic low back pain at three osteopathic clinics and three allopathic medical clinics (offering only standard care) located in three different regions of the United States.

NCT ID: NCT03511053 Completed - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Epidural Lavage Study for Lumbar Stenosis

Start date: December 19, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research is to find out if there are inflammatory biomarkers (also known as biological markers) in epidural space that can predict response to an epidural steroid injection. This study will also be evaluating whether the results of an EMG study (also known as electromyography) can predict the response to an epidural steroid injection.

NCT ID: NCT03495661 Completed - Spinal Stenosis Clinical Trials

Decompression vs Physical Training for the Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

UppSten
Start date: May 4, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is characterized by low back and leg pain, walking disturbances and sometimes instability, impaired balance and numbness of the lower limbs. This condition is caused by degenerative changes in the lumbar spine including bulging discs, osteophytes from the arthritic facet joints and thickened ligamentum flavum which together cause narrowing of the spinal canal and thus affect the lumbar nerve roots. This diagnosis is attracting more and more interest due to the aging population with increasing demands for physical activity. LSS is the most common indication for spinal surgery. The surgical treatment involves relieving the pressure from the nerve structures in the stenotic segments through a posterior approach. In several studies, surgery has been shown to have better results than the conservative treatment. However, methodological difficulties and a large proportion of cross-over in these studies indicate that there is still uncertainty about whether surgery is generally a better option. It has been speculated whether the compression of the nerve roots causes in some patients permanent nerve damage with muscle denervation, while in other cases a reinnervation and recovery of the function may occur. Results from neurography and EMG studies have been shown these modalities to have a possible predictive value for the natural process of LSS. If a neurophysiological examination could be able to predict which patients are able to benefit from surgery, many patients could avoid surgery and the risks involved in it. The aim of this study is primarily to evaluate whether surgery with decompression leads to superior results than the non-surgical treatment with structured physical therapy. The main secondary aim is to investigate by means of Neurography and EMG, whether the degree of neurological affection caused by nerve compression affects the outcome of surgery for LSS.
