Dural pulsation in lumbar spinal stenosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at a natural movement called dural pulsation (pulsing of the spinal sac) in people with lumbar spinal stenosis. It might help doctors understand the condition better and could lead to better treatments for your back or leg pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have low back or leg pain caused by a narrowed spinal canal (lumbar spinal stenosis).
- An MRI confirms at least one area of narrowing that matches your symptoms.
- You are willing to take part in the study.
- You do not have a BMI of 35 or higher.
- You have not had back surgery before.

This study compares two ways of giving a steroid injection into the lower back to relieve pain from lumbar spinal stenosis (a condition where the spinal canal narrows and presses on nerves). It may help you if you've tried other treatments without relief and you're experiencing leg pain when walking.
This study tests a simple movement assessment in people with lumbar spinal stenosis. The results may help doctors understand how the condition affects your daily function.
This study is comparing two surgical approaches for patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (narrowing of the lower spine). It aims to see if a less invasive surgery works as well as a more extensive procedure, which may help patients recover faster.
This study is tracking how active people are before and after surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis (a common cause of back and leg pain in older adults). It aims to see if activity monitoring can help improve recovery.
This study tests a procedure that uses heat from a special needle to calm overactive nerves in your lower back. It compares two ways of delivering this treatment to see which works better for long-term pain relief.
This study looks at how muscle degeneration relates to nerve-related symptoms in people with chronic low back pain. You may be eligible if you’ve tried non-surgical care but still need surgery to relieve nerve pressure.
