A Prospective Evaluation of Spinal Cord Induced Muscle Stimulation (MuscleSCS) for the Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain
This study is a prospective, multi-center study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of spinal cord induced muscle stimulation (MuscleSCS) for the treatment of chronic low back pain.
The Ability of Chronic Pain Patients to Self-diagnose Their Chief Source of Low Back Pain
The investigative team will provide 27 slides with bullet points and images of pain referral patterns for different causes (e.g., herniated disc, facet joint arthritis) for patients seen for a new visit with a chief complaint of chronic low back pain. This material is all publicly available but has been …
Combining Brain Stimulation and Physiotherapy for the Management of Chronic Low Back Pain
Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a major health challenge in Canada, leading to substantial disability and socioeconomic burden, particularly among Veterans. In military Veterans, LBP is the most common chronic pain condition. Conventional interventions have limited effectiveness. The refractoriness to interventions suggests that specific CLBP mechanisms may be missed …
Acute Effect of Isometric Excercise on Pain Sensitivity in Adults With Chronic Low Back Pain
Randomized control trial to examine the immediate effect of isometric exercise on pressure pain threshold (PPT) in adults with chronic low back pain. The secondary aim of this study was to investigate the acute effects of isometric exercise on clinical pain intensity.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Plus Exercise for Older People With Chronic Low-back Pain: A Pragmatic Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial
Low back pain (LBP) is the fifth-most common disorder among older adults 60 years or older. The prevalence of LBP increases with age, with the highest prevalence occurring at 85 years old. Because many older individuals face various age-related life challenges (e.g., comorbidities, financial difficulties, and bereavement), the addition of …
A Mediation Analysis Investigating Dry Needling Treatment Mechanisms in a Chronic Low Back Pain Population
Low back pain is a common problem that many adults experience at some point in their lives. One treatment being studied is dry needling, a technique where a small needle is inserted into a specific area of muscle to help relieve pain. So far, the research on dry needling for …
Clinician Satisfaction With the VERABAND™
The VERABAND™ is a newly-developed, disposable, wearable activity monitor. The researchers will assess clinician satisfaction with the usability and likelihood of clinical adoption of the newly-developed, disposable, wearable activity monitor, across multiple clinical sites in the chronic low back pain (cLBP) population.
Expressive Art Therapy for Elder Adults With Chronic Low Back Pain
This research project aims to assess the feasibility of expressive art therapy for elderly adults with chronic low back pain and to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of combining art therapy with exercise intervention. Additionally, the study will investigate facilitators and barriers to participation. A mixed-methods approach will be employed, including …
Feasibility, Effectiveness, and Patient Experience of Online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Plus Exercises for Older People With Chronic Low Back Pain
No study has investigated the effects of online ACT on community-dwelling older adults. Given that clinical practice guidelines have recommended exercise therapy for treating people with CLBP, a combination of ACT and exercise therapy may yield better clinical outcomes than exercise alone among community-dwelling older adults with CLBP. A double-blinded …
Evaluation of Multi-Tined Expandable Electrode (MEE) Efficacy and Safety in Treatment of Lumbar Facet Arthropathy by Radiofrequency Neurotomies Compared to Conservative Medical Management.
The purpose of this study is to better understand how people feel after a radiofrequency ablation standard of care surgery using a different type of needle (multi-tined expandable electrode/MEE) in comparison to receiving conventional medical management (CMM) techniques.
