What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High intensity motor control exercise (deadlift)Procedure or surgery

    12 treatment sessions over a 8 week period is planned for the high intensity motor control exercise.

  • Low intensity motor control exerciseProcedure or surgery

    12 sessions of low intensity motor control exercises over 8 weeks

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Selfrated function, symptoms and pain-rating

    Measured: 8 weeks, 6 month, 12 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Functional capacity

    Measured: 8 weeks, 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study of Low Back Pain, run by Luleå Tekniska Universitet.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Selfrated function, symptoms and pain-rating (time frame: 8 weeks, 6 month, 12 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01061632, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Mar 2013.
