简要总结
This will be a multicenter randomized crossover clinical trial comparing the therapeutic efficacy of BioWave therapy versus TENS for the management of chronic low back pain. This study also aims to evaluate the impact of these therapies on physical activity, patient perception of therapeutic efficacy, and activities of daily living.
详细描述
This will be a multicenter randomized crossover clinical trial comparing the therapeutic efficacy of BioWave therapy versus TENS for the management of chronic low back pain. This study also aims to evaluate the impact of these therapies on physical activity, patient perception of therapeutic efficacy, and activities of daily living. Patients will start a 30 minute treatment session with either BioWave therapy or TENS device followed by a 30 minute washout and ending with a final 30 minute treatment. Patients will then be instructed to perform two 30 minute treatment sessions daily at home for 2 weeks. Follow-up will be after 2 weeks and the patients will be assessed in clinic for physiologic measures of pain response. A washout period of 2 weeks will follow and the patients will crossover to receive the alternative treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Promis-29 relative to baseline
时间窗: completed pre-treatment at the initiation of the study (1st in-clinic treatment), at the 2 week follow up, at week 4, prior to the 2nd in-clinic treatment, and at the 6 week follow up
Changes from PROMIS-29 scores relative to baseline for each domain evaluated (physical function, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, ability to participate in social roles and activities, pain interference, and pain intensity). The first seven domains are assessed with 4 questions each; Pain Intensity is measured with a single 11-point numeric rating scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). High scores represent more of the domain being measured. On symptom-oriented domains, higher scores signify worse pain. On function-oriented domains, higher scores signify better functioning.
Change in Brief Pain Inventory relative to baseline
时间窗: completed pre-treatment at the initiation of the study (1st in-clinic treatment), at the 2 week follow up, at week 4, prior to the 2nd in-clinic treatment, and at the 6 week follow up
Includes a validated short form assessment of pain and function; Patient circles the number on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 meaning "pain as bad as you can imagine"; a lower score means less pain and a higher score means more pain. The higher the score, the worse the outcome. Patient circles the one number that describes how, during the past 24 hours, pain has interfered with their life: \[Scale is between 0-10. 0 means it does not interfere, 10 meaning it completely interferes. The higher the score, the worse the outcome.
Change in Visual Analogue Scale relative to baseline
时间窗: completed pre-treatment and post treatment for the in-clinic visit at week 1 and week 4, as well as at the 2 week and 6 week follow up visits
straight line with one end meaning no pain and the other end meaning the worst pain imaginable; patient marks a point on the line that matches the amount of pain he or she feels; the score is determined by measuring the distance (mm) on the 10-cm line between the "no pain" anchor and the patient's mark, providing a range of scores from 0-100. A higher score indicates greater pain intensity and a lower score indicates lower pain intensity
Change in Patient Global Impression of Change relative to baseline
时间窗: completed pre-treatment and post treatment for the in-clinic visit at week 1 and week 4, as well as at the 2 week and 6 week follow up visits
reflects a patient's belief about the efficacy of treatment; patients will be asked if there overall pain was very much improved, much improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse, or very much worse
次要结局
- Change in Heart Rate (HR) relative to baseline(pre and post at first in-clinic treatment at week 1 and second in-clinic treatment at week 4)
- Change in Respiratory Rate (RR) relative to baseline(pre and post at first in-clinic treatment at week 1 and second in-clinic treatment at week 4)
- Global physician assessment of patient improvement(completed at the 2 week follow up and the 6 week follow up)
- Global assessment of patient impression and perception of quality of life(completed at the 2 week follow up and the 6 week follow up)
- Global assessment of patient impression and perception of pain(completed at the 2 week follow up and the 6 week follow up)
- Change in Blood Pressure (BP) relative to baseline(pre and post at first in-clinic treatment at week 1 and second in-clinic treatment at week 4)
