What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study compared hybrid tele-rehabilitation (online sessions via Zoom) to standard clinic-based therapy for 32 adults with lumbar radiculopathy (sciatica from a slipped disc). Participants did exercises like lumbar stabilization and nerve mobilization. The trial measured pain, disability, muscle strength, and nerve sensitivity. It aims to see if remote rehab can be a practical alternative to in-person visits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
exercise (lumbar stabilization, Mackenzie, neural mobilization) delivered via tele-rehabilitation or in-clinic
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that hybrid tele-rehabilitation is as effective as in-clinic therapy for easing pain and improving function in people with lumbar radiculopathy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 32 participants. Results may not apply to everyone, and tele-rehabilitation may not suit all patients or conditions.

Exclusion Criteria: * 1\) History of pelvic, hips, or spine surgery, 2) Any unstable lumbar condition such as spinal fractures, tumor, cauda equina syndrome and spondylolisthesis (Ghasabmahaleh et al., 2021). History of neurological disorders causing radicular pain, 4) Any preexisting injury that may become exacerbated or made worse with participation (Zainab et al., 2022). 5\) Cardiovascular problems (unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction within the last three months, congestive heart failure, significant heart valve dysfunction, or unstable hypertension) or pulmonary disorders (Vijayaraj., 2018).
