Filter by:Study Purpose: This study is intended to monitor outcomes for 1 year following cervical TFESI. Based on current clinic volume and enrollment rates into a current study of cervical epidural injections that is nearing completion, we conservatively estimate a study enrollment period of 18 months and a total period of 2.5 years from enrollment to final follow-up data collection. If the study were to theoretically start enrolling in July 2019, we would anticipate completion by February 2022. Objectives: 1. Determine the proportion of patients with an 80% or greater improvement in arm and neck numerical rating scale pain (NRS) score following an initial cervical transforaminal steroid injection (TFESI) at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 2. Determine the proportion of patients with a 50%-79% improvement in arm and neck NRS score following an initial cervical TFESI at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 3. Determine the proportion of patients with less than 50% improvement in arm and neck NRS score following an initial cervical TFESI at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 4. Determine the proportion of patients with an initial injection plus up to 3 additional injections that maintain 80% or greater, as well as 50-79%, improvement in arm and neck NRS score for up to 12 months. 5. Determine the proportion of patients with a clinically significant change in function defined by a minimally clinically significant change (MCIC) (≥10 point improvement ) or 30% improvement in Neck Disability Index (NDI) score following an initial cervical TFESI at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 6. Determine the proportion of patients with clinically significant improvement in the Medication Quantification Scale (MQS III) score (≥6.8 point change , equivalent to 10 oral morphine equivalents ) following an initial cervical TFESI at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 6. Determine the proportion of patients with clinically significant improvement in the categorical EuroQol 5 Dimensions tool (EQ-5D) defined by ≥0.03 following an initial cervical TFESI at 4 weeks post-injection and the duration of response up to 12 months. 7. Compare patient demographic, clinical, and imaging characteristics between response groups and perform predictive modeling to better understand variables that increase the likelihood of a successful clinical outcome. 8. Report adverse effects.
The investigators design a randomized, control study to evaluate the therapeutic effect of digital acupuncture instrument in cervical spondylotic radiculopathy patients using the following outcomes: the Visual analogue scale(VAS), neck disability index scale (NDI) and short form 36-item questionnaire (SF-36).
Prospective study, not randomised, non-interventional, monocentric, investigating an intended patient cohort of 60 patients already operated on the cervical spine due to degenerative disc disease of the cervical spine down to the first thoracolumbar VBR (C2-T1), who received a Quintex plate for stabilisation
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the effect of midazolam sedation on the diagnostic validity of diagnostic lumbar medial branch block in patients diagnosed with lumbar spondylosis without myelopathy.

Use of cervical orthosis after instrumented posterior cervical spinal surgery is still widely practiced even though modern fusion techniques likely do not require additional stabilization from an external orthosis. This is a single, centre randomized, non-blinded equivalence trial. Patients undergoing multi-level posterior cervical fusion will be randomized to cervical orthosis (CO group) or no orthosis (NO group). Immediately following surgery patients in the CO group will be fitted with a Philadelphia collar prior to being transferred to the recovery room. On the patient ward a physiotherapist will fit the patient with a Cervimax/Aspen/Miami J collar which will be worn at all times for 6 weeks according the standard of care. The NO group will have no specific precautions applied to their neck range of motion. Outcomes will be assessed prior to surgery, on the second day after surgery, and at 2, 4, 6 and 12 weeks after surgery. The primary outcome will be neck pain score on the numerical rating scale (ranging from 0-10 with higher scores indicating more severe pain) during the first 4 weeks after surgery with an equivalence margin of 2.0 points. Secondary outcomes will be neck disability, general health, treatment satisfaction, pain medication use, adverse events, neck range of motion, time meeting discharge status, and compliance in wearing the collar.
All the patients of cervical spondylosis which were enrolled in this study were assessed in Rehabilitation centre of Yusra General Hospital. Patients who compete the inclusion criteria are randomly assigned by the seal envelop method in to two groups interventional and control group. There is nine sessions of three weeks rehabilitation program and Pain is assessed on Numeric pain rating scale, Disability on Neck Disability index and ROM is assessed by Goniometer in 1ST, 4TH and last visit. Three sessions of intervention is given to patient per week.
This study will compare the effect of segmental spine mobilization and entire spine mobilization in the patients with lumber spondylosis. There will be two groups ; experimental and control. Half of study group will receive segmental mobilization along with conventional treatment such as moist heat , soft tissue mobilization and traditional stretching exercises and half of study group will receive entire spine mobilization along with the same conventional treatment given to other group.
The purpose of this single-blind, randomized, controlled study is to assess the efficacy of "informative text messages" vs "traditional handouts" provided to lumbar spine surgery patients post-operatively.
Cervical spondylosis is a chronic degenerative condition, commonly affecting >40-year-old adults worldwide. Cervical spondylosis is an important cause of neck pain and low back pain, and seriously affects the physical health, mental health, patients quality of life. Yoga has been most commonly used intervention for pain conditions. But its efficacy in cervical spondylosis has not yet been studied in clinical trials. The primary aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy of yoga chikitsa (therapy) compared with control intervention for neck pain caused by cervical spondylosis.
