Protocol summary

Study aim
Effectiveness of Epidural Hyaluronidase Injection and Comparison with Ozone Muscle Injection to Reduce Pain and Improve Function in Patients with Lumbosacral Spinal Stenosis
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, triple-blind, randomized through block randomization method
Settings and conduct
Patients are initially divided into two groups, and after obtaining written consent, the study begins. Treatment in one group involves injecting a mixture of Ozone-Oxygen in the paravertebral muscles. Injections are performed three times with interval of one week at the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic in Haj Ismail Emtiaz Hospital. In the second group, treatment consists of injecting a single-dose epidural Hyalase _1500 unit under a Fluoroscopic-guided epidural injection. In this study, blinding in patients, health care providers and statistical consultant was done.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Back pain and other symptoms of spinal canal stenosis in the last six months Age between 35_75 years Confirmation of spinal canal stenosis through MRI and EDX. Non-inclusion criteria: Diabetes Melitus; Rheumatologic and collagen vascular diseases; peripheral neuropathy and nerve injury; Brucellosis.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Ozone treatment group. Injection of 18 ml of Ozone-Oxygen mixture (2% _98%) at a concentration of 20 µg / dl at six points (three cc each point) in the paravertebral muscles. Control group: Hyaluronidase treatment group. Injection of a Hyaluronidase_1500 unit unit and 4 cc Marcain by Epidural-guided fluoroscopy in Epidural space
Main outcome variables
Pain and Activity of Daily Living

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Complete randomized block design with SPSS software is used for randomization and then sealed non-transparent envelopes are used to hide the random sequence.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
Participant:The participant is explained that if they are interested, they can join our research project. Two methods used to reduce patient pain in our study are explained to the patient. Benefits and possible complications of both methods are described to the patient and the patient is told to randomly fall into one of the intervention groups. If the patient is accepted to admit the study, by random allocation software, the patient falls into one of two groups Clinical Caregiver: We teach the caregiver how to complete the questionnaire. This person is not aware of the patient's intervention. Researcher: In this study we are not capable of blinding the researcher because the researcher performs both interventions himself and is aware of any intervention in each group. Outcome Assessor: Completed questionnaires are handed to a person who is unaware of interventions and requested to determine the extent of pain reduction and performance enhancement in each individual according to the questionnaire. Data analyzer: Questionnaires are finally given to the individual after completing and collecting all the information to evaluate the information. This person is unaware of any of the steps in the study and group division and intervention allocation.
