clonidine has been researched along with Disc, Herniated in 3 studies

Clonidine: An imidazoline sympatholytic agent that stimulates ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS and central IMIDAZOLINE RECEPTORS. It is commonly used in the management of HYPERTENSION.
clonidine (amino form) : A clonidine that is 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-amine in which one of the amino hydrogens is replaced by a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Pain Disability Score at 2 Weeks as Measured by Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (ODI)

This questionnaire measures a patient's permanent functional disability. The questionnaire consists of 10 sections with 6 statements each of increasing point value (from 0 to 5). The score is a percentage of the total, with higher score showing greater disability. Minimum detectable change is 10%, with a 90% CI. Change of less than this may be attributable to error in measurement. (NCT00588354)
Timeframe: 2 weeks

Pain Disability Score at 2 Weeks as Measured by the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire

This scale measures functional disability due to back pain. The score of the scale is the total number of items checked, from a minimum of 0 (no disability) to a maximum of 24 (great disability). Roland MO, Morris RW. A study of the natural history of back Pain. Part 1: development of a reliable and sensitive measure of disability in low back pain. Spine 1983; 8:141-144. (NCT00588354)
Timeframe: 2 weeks

Pain Disability Score at 4 Weeks as Measured by Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire

This questionnaire measures a patient's permanent functional disability. The questionnaire consists of 10 sections with 6 statements each of increasing point value (from 0 to 5). The score is a percentage of the total, with higher score showing greater disability. Minimum detectable change is 10%, with a 90% CI. Change of less than this may be attributable to error in measurement. (NCT00588354)

Timeframe: 4 weeks

Pain Intensity Score at 2 Weeks as Measured by Pain Intensity Numerical Rating Scale (PI-NRS)

11-point ordinal scale measuring patient pain, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe/disabling pain). (NCT00588354)
Timeframe: 2 weeks

Pain Intensity Score at 4 Weeks as Measured by Pain Intensity Numerical Rating Scale (PI-NRS)

11-point ordinal scale measuring patient pain, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe/disabling pain). (NCT00588354)
Timeframe: 4 weeks

Pain Score at 2 Weeks as Measured by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory (MPI)

The MPI is a comprehensive instrument comprised of 12 scales divided into three parts for assessing a number of dimensions of the chronic pain experience including pain intensity, emotional distress, cognitive and functional adaptation, and social support. Reference: Kearns RO, Turk DC, Rudy TC. The West Haven-Yale Multidimensional Pain Inventory (WHYMPI). Pain 1985; 23:345-356. Subscales were not used; the DOS WHYMPI computer program version 2.1 was used to score the instrument. Scores range from 0 (no pain) to 100 (highest pain). A score of 50 is the mean for patients with chronic pain. (NCT00588354)
