When to start rehab after UBE spine surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at whether starting rehabilitation exercises earlier or later after a specific type of minimally invasive back surgery (UBE) for a slipped disc improves your recovery. It's for people who have had leg pain for less than a year and are scheduled for this surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 19 and 65 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with a lumbar disc herniation (slipped disc in your lower back) and are set to have a minimally invasive surgery called UBE.
- You have had leg pain (radicular pain) from the herniation for less than 1 year.
- You can understand Chinese and fill out questionnaires on your own.
- You are physically able to do rehabilitation exercises and are willing to participate.

This study compares two different water pressures used during a minimally invasive back surgery to see if one causes fewer complications and gives the surgeon a clearer view. It aims to help improve recovery and surgical outcomes for people with lower back problems.
This trial tests if a special exercise program that uses visual feedback helps people recover better after surgery for a herniated disc in the lower back. It may improve your recovery and reduce pain.
This study compares two types of minimally invasive surgery to remove a herniated disc in the lower back. It aims to see which technique offers better pain relief and recovery.
This study looks at recovery after planned (elective) surgery for common lower-back (“lumbar”) spine problems like slipped discs, disc bulges, and narrowing of the spinal canal. You may be asked to complete online questionnaires, and the study uses your answers to understand symptoms and outcomes after surgery.
This study compares two recovery methods after back surgery: early mobilization (starting to move soon after surgery) and electrical stimulation (using small electrical pulses to help muscles). It aims to see which approach improves functional recovery faster and better.
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) during physical therapy after lumbar disc surgery helps you recover better in the first few days. You'll do standard exercises with or without VR games to see if it improves your movement and pain.
