  1. 11. Evaluation of a structured physiotherapy treatment model for patients with lumbar disc herniation

    Författare :Gunilla Limbäck Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Intervertebral disc displacement; physicaltherapy therapy modalities; rehabilitation; surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Symptoms from lumbar disc herniation are common in the general population. Many discs heal spontaneously and the patient’s symptoms cease. When people have severe pain and sciatica, the recommendation is to start with physiotherapy treatment and pain medication for at least six to eight weeks before surgery is considered. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Long term effects of lumbar disc herniation surgery in adolescents

    Författare :Tobias Lagerbäck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: In Sweden, about 2,900 surgeries due to a lumbar disc herniation are performed yearly, and the surgical incidence is low compared to the incidence in Denmark and Norway. Surgery for lumbar disc herniation in adolescence is rare and few reports on the outcome of surgery exist. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Lumbar disc herniation. Clinical outcome and segmental stability using a new radiological classification and radiostereometry

    Författare :Klas Halldin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :lumbar disc herniation; discectomy; radiostereometry; segmental stability; instability; surgical outcome; radiological classification;

    Sammanfattning : Satisfactory results following conventional lumbar discectomy have been reported in 70-90% of cases. Remaining or recurrent low back pain or sciatica is, however, seen in many patients for reasons not yet fully understood. A relationship has previously been shown between the morphologic characteristics, i.e. LÄS MER

  4. 14. On lumbar disc herniation : aspects of outcome after surgical treatment

    Författare :Peter Elkan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Knowledge about sciatica has grown immensely since the days of Hippocrates. Even so one must be impressed with the anatomical insights of those ancient times. Today we are able to describe at a molecular level how the intervertebral disc degenerates and how a herniation is evolved and its physical consequences for the patient. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Lumbar muscle fatigue : analysis of electromyography, endurance time and subjective factors in patients with lumbar disc herniation and healthy subjects

    Författare :Åsa Dedering; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Disability; electromyography; endurance; gender; healthy subjects; lumbar disc herniation; lumbar extensor muscles; muscle fatigue; non-linear regression; recovery; subjective ratings;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the thesis was to investigate the relation between objectively and subjectively assessed lumbar muscle fatigue and subjective factors in patients with lumbar disc herniation and in healthy subjects. Eighty healthy subjects and 43 patients undergoing surgery for lumbar disc herniation and selected consecutively for the study participated. LÄS MER
