Coccygodynia

This study followed 77 adults who received spinal implants (PASS LP, PASS DEGEN, or PASS TULIP PRIME) to treat degenerative spine conditions like disc degeneration or spinal deformity. The main goal was to see if the bones fused properly after 24 months. Researchers also tracked …

This study tested a Turkish version of the Johns Hopkins In-Room Independence Scale, which measures a patient's ability to move, use the toilet, and think clearly while in their hospital room. Researchers worked with 100 adults who had conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or ampu…

This study tested two treatments for chronic tailbone pain (coccygodynia) in 100 adults. One group received osteopathic manual therapy—gentle hands-on techniques to mobilize the tailbone and relax muscles—over 6 weeks. The other group got a nerve block injection guided by X-ray. …

This study looked at whether injecting a dextrose (sugar) solution into the ligaments around the tailbone can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with long-lasting coccydynia (tailbone pain). Researchers reviewed records of 50 adults who received 3-6 injections over …

This study looked at whether a type of physical therapy called Maitland mobilization, combined with exercises, can help people with tailbone pain after a colonoscopy. 42 adults with this condition were split into two groups: one received standard care (heat and stretches), and th…

This study tested a gentle hands-on technique called Primal Reflex Release for people with tailbone pain after a colonoscopy. 46 adults received either the reflex technique or standard physiotherapy. Researchers measured pain, movement, and quality of life to see if the new appro…

This study tested two different ways to treat long-lasting tailbone pain using heat from a needle (radiofrequency ablation). Fifty adults who had not gotten better with standard treatments were randomly assigned to one of two procedures. The goal was to see which method provided …

This study looked at how common muscle and posture problems are in physiotherapy students and whether a special physiotherapy program could help. 44 students with back pain and muscle tightness received treatments like trigger point release, stretching, and joint mobilization. Th…

This study looked at whether letting patients control their own sedation during arm surgery under regional anesthesia leads to higher satisfaction compared to having an anesthesiologist control it. 70 adults having upper limb orthopedic surgery were randomly assigned to either pa…

This pilot study tested whether using ultrasound to guide pharmacopuncture (herbal injections) is safe and effective for neck and back pain. Fifty adults with spinal disorders received the treatment, and researchers tracked side effects, pain levels, disability, and quality of li…

This study translated the Generic Functional Index, a questionnaire that measures how well people can do daily activities, into Turkish. Researchers tested it with 200 adults who have muscle or joint problems to see if it is accurate and reliable. The goal is to give Turkish-spea…

This study gathered information from 193 adults who had surgery or orthopedic treatment for spine problems. Researchers collected clinical, functional, and social data to create a detailed database. The goal was to better understand patient outcomes and standardize how data is co…

This study looked at 120 adults with neck or lower back spine issues to compare two types of scans: contrast-enhanced MRI and FDG-PET/CT. Researchers checked how clear the images were and whether the scans caused any short-term changes in kidney function or blood counts. The goal…

This completed study looked at how the skeleton is aligned with gravity in adults with postural problems. Researchers used a low-dose X-ray device called EOS to create 3D images of the spine and pelvis. The goal was to better understand the body's geometry in people with balance …

This study tested a new lightweight device called PYTHEAS ODYSSEE that helps surgeons place screws in the spine more accurately. Fourteen adults having spine surgery used the device to guide screw placement. The goal was to see if the device reduces screw misplacement and is safe…

This study tested whether specially trained physiotherapists can safely diagnose and treat non-urgent muscle and joint pain in the emergency room, compared to standard care from doctors. 102 patients with back, neck, or shoulder pain were randomly assigned to either a physiothera…

This study collected information from over 8,000 people who had spine surgery for conditions like degeneration, deformity, or trauma. Researchers gathered X-ray and health data to learn which treatments work best for different patients. The goal was to build a database to answer …

This completed study of 292 women looked at tailbone pain (coccydynia) after childbirth. Researchers used the Paris Questionnaire to measure pain and compared it with quality-of-life and functional scores. The goal was to see if this simple questionnaire could help doctors better…

This completed study compared how well people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), people with other muscle or bone pain, and healthy individuals can imagine movements. Researchers used a questionnaire called the MIQ-RS to measure motor imagery skills. The goal was to see …
