objectives: in a single blinded randomized controlled study, we investigated the effect of stabilization exercise on lumbar multifidus muscle thickness in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. low back pain is highly prevalent and results in considerable level of disability. many causes have been associated with weakness or injury of the soft tissues in the lumbar area. methods: a t...
Over the past decade considerable emphasis has been placed on understanding the psycho-social aspects of low back pain. Prior to this great emphasis had been placed on pathological and mechanical factors associated with the development of low back pain. The shift away from this mechanical approach despite a growing body of valid scientific evidence in support of this approach has possibly led t...
Injection therapies play a major role in the treatment of low back pain and radiculopathy and are becoming integral parts of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment and rehabilitation of patients with pain. Pararadicular- and facet-joint injections in the lumbar spine are preferentially performed with computed tomography (CT) or fluoroscopy-guidance. In this paper we present an alternative, s...
BACKGROUND The United States has the highest rate of lumbar spine surgery in the world, with rates increasing over 200% since 1990. Medicare spends over $1 billion annually on lumbar spine surgery. Despite surgical advances, up to 40% of patients report chronic pain and disability following surgery. Our work has demonstrated that fear of movement is a risk factor for increased pain and disabili...
BACKGROUND Degenerative joint disease (DJD) in the lumbar spine is a common condition that is associated with chronic low back pain. Excessive loading of lumbar joints is a risk factor for DJD. Changes in lumbar lordosis significantly redistribute the forces of weight-bearing on the facet joints and the intervertebral discs. However, the relationship between lumbar lordosis and DJD has not been...
BACKGROUND Rehabilitation of elderly patients with sit-to-stand (STS) dysfunction includes retraining coordinated movement among participating body segments. Although trunk position is considered important, spinal movement has not been measured. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe the sagittal thoracolumbar kinematics and hip-lumbar interaction during the STS task in elderly peopl...
[Purpose] Low back pain is a pervasive problem in modern societies. Physical rehabilitation in treatment of low back pain should reduce pain, muscle tension and restore spine stability and balance. The INFINITY® rehabilitation method that is based on a figure of eight movement pattern was proved to be effective in low back pain treatment. The aim of the paper is to estimate the effect of a figu...
purpose: low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders, and lifting is one of its risk factors. the activities of lumbar muscles as the main muscles involved in lifting are important with regard to identification of the allowable limits and the injury mechanisms as well as the motor control aspects. this study aimed to investigate the effects of the lifting speed on the lumb...
the effects of anterior discectomy and interposition al implant upon lumbar motion segment stability
the cadaver spine motion segment behavior under torsional load was evaluated with the disc intact, with partial anterior discectomy and with spacer insertion. the results of this study explain how anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (alif) affects the torsional stability of the motion segment. the pseudarthrosis rate of the anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (alif) is k...
Lumbar posture is considered to play an important role in low back injury and is of importance during the rehabilitation of clients employed in manual handling occupations. This clinical commentary discusses the implications of lumbar posture on the biomechanical loads placed on the active and passive tissues of the spine, and the contribution the erector spinae play during tasks involving lift...
