Effects of a Prehabilitation Program in Patients Undergoing Lumbar Radiculopathy Surgery
Sponsor:

Cardinal Herrera University

Information provided by (Responsible Party):

ARGUISS MARTINEZ MARÍA DOLORES

Brief Summary:

The purpose of the following study is to analyze the effects of a prehabilitation program based on therapeutic exercise, back care education and pain neuroscience education through the visualization of videos, compared to standardized written therapeutic exercise in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery.

Condition or disease

Lumbar Radiculopathy

Intervention/treatment

Physiotherapy

Phase

NA

Detailed Description:

So far, there are no previous studies that analyze the effects of a prehabilitation program including therapeutic exercise, back care education and pain neuroscience education through the visualization of videos in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery. This is a multicenter randomized clinical trial aimed at analyzing the effects of a 4 weeks prehabilitation program based on video visualization versus the performance of standardized written exercises in patients undergoing lumbar radiculopathy surgery.
