Pain Sensory Profile Changes Following Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain

NCT03748849 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2020-05-13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Several cross-sectional studies have demonstrated that patients with chronic low back pain have higher levels of pain sensitivity (local and widespread) when compared to controls. It is unclear however, if improvements in pain and function are reflected in a decrease in the sensitivity of pain mechanisms. This study compares the pain sensory profile in patients with chronic low back pain before and after a period of physiotherapy treatment. To account for natural fluctuations in pain sensitivity, healthy age matched controls are also measured twice
