Low Back Pain
Conditions
Brief summary
Decathlon has developed the Lumbar belt Soft 300 and Mid 500 products which are medical devices designed to reduce pain and improve function during sport practice for athletes with a common subacute or chronic low back pain. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon Lumbar belt range of products to demonstrate safety and performance of these devices in a real-world setting. Outcome data collected from this study will provide the basis for Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) reporting, Clinical Study Report (CSR), Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) on Decathlon lumbar belt Soft 300/ Mid 500 devices and support peer-reviewed publications on products performance and safety.
Interventions
15 patients will be included in this group and will used the medical device LumbarBelt SOFT 300 during sport practice (at least 2 sport sessions per week), for 12 weeks.
15 patients will be included in this control group and will performed their sport sessions as usual (without the medical device LumbarBelt SOFT 300), for at least 2 sport sessions per week during 12 weeks.
15 patients will be included in this group and will used the medical device LumbarBelt MID 500 during sport practice (at least 2 sport sessions per week), for 12 weeks.
15 patients will be included in this control group and will performed their sport sessions as usual (without the medical device LumbarBelt MID 500), for at least 2 sport sessions per week during 12 weeks.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Functionnal score | Change from Baseline functionnal score at 12 weeks | Comparison of the Oswestry Disability Index (10-item questionnaire with a global score from 0=best outcome to 100=worst outcome) between the baseline and last follow-up visit in each group (orthosis vs control), for each device model |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Confidence level (confidence questionnaire related to physical activity) | Change from Baseline confidence level at 12 weeks | Gap in the confidence level related to physical activity (scale from 0=worst outcome to 100=best outcome), between the baseline and last follow-up visit in each group (orthosis vs control), for each device model |
| Low back pain | Change from Baseline low back pain at 12 weeks | Comparison of low back pain, assessed through a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) ranging from 0=best outcome to 10=worst outcome, between the groups (orthosis vs control), for each device model |
| Safety (adverse events) | 12 weeks of follow-up | Comparison of adverse events rates between the groups (orthosis vs control), for each device model |
