Filter by:The aim of this observational study is to investigate relationship between cervical, thoracic, lumbar and thoracolumbar spine posture, spine movement, isometric and eccentric shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesis and core muscle endurance in healthy competitive young swimmers in comparison with healthy recreational swimmers. The main question is whether spine posture affects spine movement, shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesia and core endurance. Participants will asked to complete a warm up period, after that spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core endurance will be assessed by examiner. Researchers will compare competitive swimmer group and recreational swimmer group. Additionally correlation between spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core muscle endurance will be investigated in competitive swimmer group. Aim of the study is to determine whether posture have any effect upon these parameters.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Leg Lateral Reach Test to measure thoraco-lumbo-pelvic segment mobility in adolescent tennis players. The fact that the test is valid and reliable for tennis players will contribute to monitoring trunk rotation flexibility in athletes, comparing them bilaterally, and revealing the exercise training necessary to improve performance.
Background: Throughout the history of spinal deformity there have been continuous advances in the surgical treatment. Although many techniques have been successfully developed despite the anatomy complex, screw placement still remains difficult with a significant risk of misplaced implants. The O-ARM guided Navigation is a scanner that allows imaging of screws intraoperatively and could be a tool to facilitate screw revision and reduce the occurrence of misplaced implants. Methods: This is a prospective and randomized clinical study that will be carried out at the University Hospital of the Federal University of Piaui, which provides exclusive assistance to patients of the Unified Health System (UHS), in northeastern Brazil.
Our study aims at investigating short and long-term outcomes following surgery for subaxial spine injuries in the elderly (octogenarian) population.
The goal of this clinical trial is to analyse the effect of an intervention program based on hamstring flexibility on the extensibility and curvatures of the spine in dancers. Participants will be dance student with ten years of experience that will undergo a program of stretching four times per week during seven weeks, followed by a detraining period, and a retraining period of three weeks. There will be a pre-test, a post-test and two re-tests after the intervention. The results will be compared with a control group of dancers that will not take part in the stretching program.
Primary aim: Characterise case-mix, processes of care and variations in nonoperative and operative management strategies, including emergency, ward, surgical and ICU care, in patients presenting with traumatic spinal injury (TSI) between centres across low and high Human Development Index (HDI) countries. Primary outcome measure: The primary outcome measure will be Frankel Grade at 6 weeks post-admission (or discharge, whichever comes first). Primary comparison: Between country groups defined by human development index Centre eligibility: Any unit assessing patients with TSI worldwide will be eligible to participate Patient eligibility: All adult patients presenting with radiologically confirmed traumatic spinal injury. Team: Each participating unit will form a study team of up to four investigators including a study lead, local investigator 1/2 and an independent data validator. Time period: Local study teams may select any 30-day period from July 12th 2021 to start their study. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria between 00:01 on day 0 and 23:59 on day 30 of the selected study period will be included. Validation: There will be a two-phase data validation process. Phase 1 will be prospective, validating case ascertainment, and phase 2 will be retrospective, validating operative data.
Study with the aim to see the effect on a space ground analogue , Hyper-Buoyancy Floatation (HBF) on lumbar column and the effect of a supplementary 50% of an axial load.
Continued spinal pain following spine surgery is reported in up to 50% of patients. Disability and pain following spine surgery occurs. Repeat back surgery outcomes on Workers Compensation low back patients demonstrated larger number of patients did not come back to work. Such continued pain has biopsychosocial health relationships between the physical and the psychological and social factors that are associated with back pain and disability. Chiropractic consultation by post surgical continued pain (PSCP) patients occurs but the frequency, clinical treatment and outcomes of chiropractic treatment are not sufficiently documented. Conditions reported in continued pscp patients seeking care following spinal fusion are reported as sacroiliac joint pain, internal disc disruption, and zygapohyseal joint pain. Sacroiliac joint pain is more common after fusion, while internal disc disruption is more common in nonfusion patients. Very few studies are available on the outcomes of PSCP patients seen by chiropractic. This study proposes to investigate the clinical outcomes of PSCP patients presenting with pain in lumbar, thoracic, and cervical regions and had prior surgery in the respective regions, seeking care from field Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) certified in Cox flexion distraction decompression procedures.
This is a prospective interventional trial with healthy volunteers at Methodist Dallas Medical Center. We anticipate data collection to be completed by December 2023. All study participants will be consented regardless of their role as healthy C-spine volunteer or provider volunteer (Appendix C). No compensation will be provided. Provider volunteers will be classified as: - Attending - Resident - Physician assistant, nurse practitioner, or nurse - EMS/Paramedic - Other, as determined by job functions in pre-assessment
Major spine surgery causes severe postoperative pain. The primary objective of this randomized controlled study is to compare the effect of ultrasound (US)-guided superficial erector spinae plane (ESP) block on 48-hour postoperative cumulative opioid requirements with standard (opioid-based) analgesia.
