Abnormalities have been proven to be tangibly visible with ultrasound in prior research projects in the form of decreased cross sectional area of the carpal tunnel, flattening of the median nerve, retinacular bowing and increased median nerve intensity.

One week after the visit, participants will be asked to complete a brief survey over the phone with one of the study investigators.",[237,238],"Parkinson Disease","Osteopathy in Diseases Classified Elsewhere",[59],"2024-08-05",{"date":242,"type":33},"2024-08-07",{"date":244,"type":33},"2023-07-06",{"date":246,"type":18},"2025-12",{"name":39,"class":40},{"id":249,"slug":250,"hasResults":11,"nctId":251,"briefTitle":252,"officialTitle":252,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":253,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":15,"minAge":49,"maxAge":254,"enrollmentInfo":255,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":19,"phases":257,"briefSummary":258,"conditions":259,"keywords":261,"overallStatus":29,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":240,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":265,"startDateStruct":267,"completionDateStruct":269,"leadSponsor":270,"locationsCount":41},"100191284","efficacy-of-osteopathic-manipulative-medicine-omm-and-phototherapy-for-patients-with-chronic-lower-back-pain-100191284","NCT01765777","Efficacy of Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) and Phototherapy for Patients With Chronic Lower Back Pain","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age range: 18 - 65 years old\n* Subjects with constant or intermittent nonspecific lower back pain for a minimum of three (3) months duration.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Prospective subjects with a diagnosis of the following potential underlying causes of lower back pain: ankylosing spondylitis, cancer or a history of a histologically demonstrated malignant carcinoma, cauda equine syndrome, herniated disc, spinal fracture, or spinal osteomyelitis.\n* Prospective subjects who have undergone surgery of the lower back in the preceding three (3) months.\n* Prospective subjects who have received worker's compensation in the preceding three (3) months, or are involved in litigation involving concerns of lower back.\n* Prospective subjects who are pregnant.\n* Prospective subjects who have been a patient receiving any osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) treatment at the clinical trial site in the previous three (3) months, or on greater than three (3) occasions in the preceding year.\n* Prospective subjects who have ever been an employee at the clinical trial site.\n* Prospective subjects who have received spinal manipulation in the previous three (3) months, or on greater than three (3) occasions in the preceding year.\n* Prospective subjects who are currently involved in a physical therapy rehabilitation program.\n* Prospective subjects who have photosensitivity.","65 Years",{"count":256,"type":18},48,[21],"The purpose of the research study entitled \"Efficacy of Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) and Phototherapy for Patients with Chronic Lower Back Pain\" is to investigate the hypothesis that combined treatment with both osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) and phototherapy will provide greater pain relief for patients with chronic lower back pain, as compared with standard medical management or either treatment alone.",[260],"Chronic Lower Back Pain",[262,263,264],"Low back pain","Lower back pain","Chronic back pain",{"date":266,"type":33},"2024-08-06",{"date":268,"type":33},"2011-06",{"date":173,"type":18},{"name":39,"class":40},""]
