Complexity & Distraction in LBP

NCT03633578 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 16

Last updated 2025-11-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Motor control, notably expressed through the complexity of the variability of the locomotor pattern, is disturbed at the central level by an apprehension of pain and movement, more than pain itself (or by biomechanical / structural damage of the spine) in chronic low back pain (cLBP) patients.

The aim of this study is to control that variability is reduced during gait at comfortable level and to test that distraction can reduce pain avoidance and therefore increase variability in cLBP patients.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low Back Pain
  • Gait
  • Motor Activity

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

walk test

The patient will have to walk on a treadmill in four different conditions: * without distraction at preferential speed * with distraction at preferential speed * without distraction at the speed of 130% of the preferential speed * with distraction at the speed of 130% of the preferential speed
