Examination of Nociscan Impact on Discogenic Low Back Pain Surgical Outcomes
This study is looking into how safe and useful NOCISCAN is. NOCISCAN is a software as a Service (SaaS) tool that uses Magnetic Resonance (MR) spectroscopy. Nociscan (instead of 'It') leverages MRS to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. The randomized controlled trial …
High-heeled Shoes in a Sample of Young Women
At a postural level, many doctors, physiotherapists and chiropractors are convinced that lower back pain induced by heels is due to an increase in lumbar lordosis associated with an anterior pelvic tilt; this thought is even shared by the American Chiropractic Association and the American Physical Therapy Association. Furthermore, in …
Biomechanical Validation of the CATT
As of 2020, 53 million Americans provide unpaid care to an individual with a disability. One commonly performed activity of daily living (ADL) provided by informal caregivers is assisted transfers, which requires moving an individual from one surface to another. Approximately 94% of informal caregivers who assist with ADLs to …
Assessing Central Aspects of Pain
BACKGROUND: Chronic pain continues for more than 12 weeks despite medication or treatment. Chronic pain is the main symptom of muscle and joint problems, rarely explained by damage to the muscle and joints alone. Activity in the central nervous system (CNS; nerves, spinal cord, and brain) pathways governs our ability …
Assessing the Functional Movement Screen as a Reliable Physical Therapy Discharge Criteria for Chronic Lower Back Pain Patients
Overview of Research Design and Objectives This study is a prospective, concurrent cohort study aimed at evaluating the reliability of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) as a discharge criterion for patients with chronic lower back pain (LBP) undergoing physical therapy. The primary objective is to identify a benchmark FMS score …
The Impacts of Chronic Non-specific Low Back Pain on Cognitive Functions of Older Adults
Chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP) is a prevalent condition among older adult and has been associated with an increased risk of executive function impairment. Studies have shown that older adults with chronic pain are more likely to show poor cognitive performance than healthy controls. Cognitive performance is particularly important …
Changes in Thoracolumbar Fascia Stiffness and Pain Parameters in Young Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
This study aims to investigate the biomechanical parameters of thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) and pain-related properties including pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (ppt) and pain sensitivity in young adults with non-specific chronic low back pain (LBP), both those experiencing chronic low back pain (LBP) and without LBP.
Wearable Spine Health System for Military Readiness
The goal of this observational trial is to compare the health history and motion capabilities of participants with low back pain disorders to participants with healthy spines. The main question[s] it aims to answer are to: Primary outcomes of this research effort include the development of composite measures or digital …
The Impacts of Chronic Non-specific Low Back Pain on Cognitive Functions of Older Adults: A Longitudinal Study
Chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP) is a common condition among older adults and has been associated with an increased risk of executive function impairment. Research shows that older adults experiencing chronic pain are more likely to show worse cognitive performance compared to healthy individuals. While there is a bidirectional …
Effect of an Interdisciplinary Spine Rehabilitation Program
The goal of this research project is to evaluate the effectiveness of the current interdisciplinary rehabilitation program (Revita) and follow-up trajectory for chronic lumbar spine disorders in the University Hospitals Leuven.
