This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, international scientific and clinical leaders have collaborated to present this exclusive book which integrates state-of-the art engineering concepts of spine control into clinically relevant approaches for the rehabilitation of low back pain. Spinal Control identifies the scope of the problem around motor control of the spine and pelvis while defining key terminology and methods as well as placing experimental findings into context. Spinal Control also includes contributions that put forward different sides of critical arguments (e.g. whether or not to focus on training the deep muscles of the trunk) and then bring these arguments together to help both scientists and clinicians better understand the convergences and divergences within this field. On the one hand, this book seeks to resolve many of the issues that are debated in existing literature, while on the other, its contributing opinion leaders present current best practice on how to study the questions facing the field of spine control, and then go on to outline the key directions for future research. Spinal Control – the only expert resource which provides a trusted, consensus approach to low back pain rehabilitation for both clinicians and scientists alike! - Covers the most important issues in spine control research - Illustrates the clinical relevance of research and how this is or can be applied in clinical practice - Edited and written by world leading experts, contributing first class content on different aspects of spine control - Chapters that bring together the expertise of these world leaders on topics such as neuromotor mechanisms of spine control, proprioception, subgrouping in back pain and modelling spine stability - An extensive and illustrated clinical consensus chapter that brings together the philosophies of clinical opinion leaders for the first time

Book Biomechanical Evaluation of Posterior Dynamic Stabilization Systems in Lumbar Spine

Download or read book Biomechanical Evaluation of Posterior Dynamic Stabilization Systems in Lumbar Spine written by Bharath K. Parepalli and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fusion has been the gold standard treatment for treating the disc degeneration. Fusion surgeries restrict the motion at the implanted level there by imposing additional load at the adjacent levels. Many clinical studies have showed that adjacent segment degeneration was observed in patients over time. In order to overcome problems with fusion devices, dynamic stabilization systems are being used to treat disc degeneration related problems. These implants restore intersegmental motion across the implanted level with minimal effects on the adjacent levels. In vitro cadaveric testing was conducted on seven harvested sheep spines using established protocols. Axient was implanted in the spines 3 months prior to sacrificing. Main aim of this testing is to see if the performance is altered by the presence of surrounding muscle tissue. The specimens were prepared and tested under load control protocol. All six loading modes were tested by applying a pure moment of 10Nm (in steps of 2.5Nm) and angular displacement was calculated for the following cases: 1) Intact spine + Axient with surrounding muscle tissue, 2) Intact spine + Axient with muscle tissue removed, 3) Intact spine (with implant removed). Relative motion of L4 vertebra with respect to L5 was calculated. Statistical analysis was performed (on the implanted level data) to see if there is a statistical significance between cases 1 and 2. Biomechanical testing was also performed on 4 human cadavers to observe the trend with Axient compared to FE results. A validated 3-D non linear finite element model of the L3-S1 lumbar spine was used to evaluate biomechanics of various dynamic stabilization systems in comparison with traditional rigid rod system. The model was modified at L4-L5 level to simulate three different dynamic stabilization systems (DSFM-1, DSFM-2 and Axient, Innovative Spinal Technologies Inc., Mansfield, MA). Grade I was simulated at L4-L5 level. Follower preload of 400N and a 10Nm bending moment was applied to simulate physiological flexion, extension, lateral bending and axial rotation. Range of motion (ROM), intra discal pressure (IDP) and facet loads were calculated for all the models. Implant with better performance was then compared with fusion system in both grade I and grade II degenerated spines. In vitro results showed that there is no significant difference in the performance of the Axient with and without surrounding muscle tissue in terms of range of motion. Coming to FE results, Axient performed better over the other two implants (DSFM-1 and DSFM-2). Axient device was able to restore the motion at the implanted level compared to fusion device. Higher motions were observed at the adjacent level (L5-S1) with fusion device compared to intact and injured models. Both devices were able to stabilize the diseased spine and unload the treated disc.

Book The Impact of Spinal Stabilization Exercises on Pain  Disability  and Physical Functional After Lumbar Spinal Fusion

Download or read book The Impact of Spinal Stabilization Exercises on Pain Disability and Physical Functional After Lumbar Spinal Fusion written by Kathryn Sawyer and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lumbar spinal fusion (LSF) surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures for degeneration of the lumbar spine. Though minimally invasive surgical techniques have been developed in an attempt to reduce muscle injury, some damage is unavoidable. Research on postoperative rehabilitation has not kept pace with the increased utilization of LSF in the United States over the past three decades, and there is a lack of high-quality evidence to answer questions regarding the optimal timing, duration, and type of rehabilitation to implement following surgery. Spinal stabilization exercises target the muscles that corset the lumbar spine to improve functional control of the trunk. Initiation of a spinal stabilization program early after LSF may reduce loss of muscle function, potentially improving clinical outcomes following surgery. The purpose of the three studies was to explore spinal surgeons’ perceptions of rehabilitation after LSF, investigate deep abdominal muscle performance during spinal stabilization exercises, and compare the effectiveness of early initiation of a spinal stabilization program to the current standard of care on outcomes after surgery. Spinal surgeons participated in one-on-one interviews to discuss their opinions on postoperative recovery. Data was assessed with content analysis, coding and triangulation. Findings indicated that surgeons prefer a rehabilitative program that includes cardiovascular activity, trunk stabilization exercises performed with the lumbar spine in a neutral position, and reinforcement of body mechanics. Next, five low-load, neutral spine stabilization exercises were tested with ultrasound imaging. Two one-way repeated measures ANOVAs were calculated to compare resting and contracted measurements of the transversus abdominis and internal oblique muscles. Results of this study were incorporated into a randomized, prospective clinical trial comparing the effects of early initiation of a spinal stabilization exercise program to standard of care after LSF. Participants randomized to the control group followed standardized guidelines for cardiovascular activity. Participants randomized to the intervention group received instruction in performance of a daily spinal stabilization exercise program. Four separate 2x3 mixed ANOVAs were used in data analysis. Results indicated that the program did not have either a positive or negative impact on pain, disability, or physical function up to six months postoperatively.
