Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
The effectiveness of graded motor imagery for reducing phantom limb pain in amputees: a randomised controlled trial.
To investigate whether graded motor imagery (GMI) is effective for reducing phantom limb pain (PLP) in people who have undergone limb amputations. ⋯ (PACTR201701001979279).

Randomized Controlled Trial
Impact of hypertonic saline nebulisation combined with oscillatory positive expiratory pressure on sputum expectoration and related symptoms in cystic fibrosis: a randomised crossover trial.
To evaluate the impact of combining nebulised hyaluronic acid plus hypertonic saline (HA+HS) with oscillatory positive expiratory pressure (oscillatory-PEP) on sputum expectoration and related symptoms in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). ⋯ NCT02303808.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Effectiveness of spinal manipulation and myofascial release compared with spinal manipulation alone on health-related outcomes in individuals with non-specific low back pain: randomized controlled trial.
To investigate the effectiveness of spinal manipulation combined with myofascial release compared with spinal manipulation alone, in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNLBP). ⋯ NCT03113292.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effects of ventilation mode and manual chest compression on flow bias during the positive end- and zero end-expiratory pressure manoeuvre in mechanically ventilated patients: a randomised crossover trial.
To investigate the effects of ventilation mode and manual chest compression (MCC) application on the flow bias generated during positive end-expiratory pressure-zero end-expiratory pressure (PEEP-ZEEP) in mechanically ventilated patients. PEEP-ZEEP is an airway clearance manoeuvre with the potential to exceed the flow bias required to remove secretions. However, the ventilation mode applied during the manoeuvre has not been standardised. ⋯ http://www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br/rg/RBR-223xv8/.

Comparison of virtual reality rehabilitation and conventional rehabilitation in Parkinson's disease: a randomised controlled trial.
To compare a 6-week virtual reality (VR) rehabilitation programme with a conventional rehabilitation programme in patients with Parkinson's disease. ⋯ NCT02807740.
