NCT ID: NCT06030050 Withdrawn - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Animal Assisted Intervention for Hemodialysis Outpatients

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand if and how an animal-assisted intervention [AAI] using therapy dogs can support hemodialysis [HD] patients' treatment adherence and enhance their well-being. The main objectives are: - Objective 1: Determine if the AAI impacts patients' HD treatment adherence (primary outcome is number of unplanned missed treatments no due to hospitalization). - Objective 2: Evaluate if the AAI impacts patients' psychosocial well-being (secondary outcomes are stress, pain, mood, QOL). - Objective 3: Examine potential mechanistic biomarkers that underpin human-animal bonding (hormones tied to stress and bonding). (exploratory aim) - Objective 4: Understand patients' subjective experiences of the AAI. Participants will be asked to engage in several research tasks, including: - assessments - therapy dog visits - monthly blood draws - focus group Researchers will compare how the treatment group (those who receive 2 dogs visits per week) and the control group (those who receive 0 dog visits per week) to see if the AAI impacts treatment adherence and psychosocial well-being.

NCT ID: NCT05731739 Withdrawn - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

IV Lidocaine Infusion for Neuropathic Pain

Start date: April 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The investigators will conduct a retrospective cohort study of patients who have undergone i.v. lidocaine infusions in the previous 2 years for suspected neuropathic pain of heterogeneous origin. The investigators hypothesize that the analgesic response to intravenous (i.v.) lidocaine will be bimodal with clear responders and clear non-responders. The investigators also hypothesize that more refractory patients, who have failed previous multimodal analgesic therapy, will be less likely to respond to i.v. lidocaine. The investigators goals are to report what percentage of patients will achieve relief, the degree of relief that can be expected, and identify the type of patients who will most likely to benefit from systemic lidocaine. The investigators secondary objective is to report the correlation between infusion rates and patterns of infusion rate adjustments with regard to efficacy and adverse effects.

Study on the Use of Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring in Spinal Cord Stimulator Trials

SCS-Monitor
Start date: December 10, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is an observational pilot study. The spinal cord stimulator (SCS) procedure and neuromonitoring device is not under investigation. Neuromonitoring is typically performed on this patient population receiving SCS trials here. This study is collecting the data that is transmitted into EPIC from the device that is being collected as part of the patients standard of care. This study will specifically look at Boston Scientific SCS trials as those are the majority of SCS devices that are used here at this medical center Primary Objective - To evaluate the difference between observed intraoperative neuromonitoring readings and patient reported coverage for spinal cord stimulator trials and Secondary Objective(s) - 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of intraoperative neuromonitoring during spinal cord stimulator trials and via documented adverse events and patient elicited feedback on follow up questionnaires. 2. Patient satisfaction using PGIC from one week to 6-months post procedure 3. Change in pain intensity using NRS from baseline to 6-months post procedure This study will follow subjects in conjunction with thier standard of care SCS clinic visits. This includes the one week wound check at the pain clinic and then a 2 week end of study phone call.

NCT ID: NCT05423132 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Nerve Entrapment Syndrome

Study on the Efficacy of Infiltration of Upper Cluneal Nerves in Chronic Pain Related to Cluneal Syndrome

Start date: June 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lower back pain is a very common complaint in the Chronic Pain Clinic. Its etiology is nonspecific in 85% of the cases. In 1957, Strong and Davila reported that the superior cluneal nerves (SCNs) and middle cluneal nerves (MCNs) can be entrapped around the iliac crest, suggesting a causal relationship between this entrapment (SCN-Entrapment, SCN-E) and low back pain symptom. This is known today as "cluneal syndrome". Cluneal syndrome remains poorly investigated and is currently a diagnostic challenge. Various types of lumbar movements exacerbate its occurence. The most common theory regarding the origin of this pain evokes that is primarily due to a mechanical cause linked to stenosis or adhesions of fibrous tissue around the cluneal nerves causing distress. The hypothesis is that the investigator can reduce the pain related to the syndrome of superior cluneal origin thanks to a "volume effect" which aims to detach adhesions and/or aponeurotic stenoses that cause a distress of cluneal nerves. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the cluneal nerve block using theThomas Dahl Nielsen ultrasound based technique in patients with chronic low-back pain related to SCN-E. To this end, the investigator will compare physiological serum injection versus local anaesthetic injection, with the aim of reducing short-term pain and improving quality of life.

RELEARN
Start date: October 5, 2022
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This clinical investigation will be carried out as a randomized controlled trial conducted at the Northern Regional Hospital, Hjørring. This investigation will enrol 36 patients suffering from severe knee osteoarthritis pain, primarily from the orthopaedic ward at Hjørring Hospital, where potential participants will be identified during routine consultations. The RELEARN intervention consists of encephalography (EEG) neurofeedback of cerebral movement evoked signatures of pain, where the participants will be instructed in attempting to manipulate these signatures to reduce pain perception. This investigation is carried out to analyse the clinical performance and safety of the RELEARN neurofeedback software.

NCT ID: NCT05226676 Withdrawn - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Long-term Effects of Repetitive TMS in Chronic Neuropathic Pain in People With SCI

Start date: August 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Around 80% of people with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop chronic neuropathic pain (CNP). This is a debilitating condition with major negative impacts on people's quality of life. Many treatment options have been offered (invasive stimulation, drugs) but provide limited effects and many secondary effects. There is a critical need to develop a new generation of therapies. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive and painless brain stimulation technique that allows researchers to explore and change brain excitability that has shown promising effects in neuropathic pain. However there is not enough evidence of what are the long lasting effects of the different protocols. In this study, 30 SCI subjects with CNP in their hands will participate in the study. The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of real versus sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and investigate 1) short and long term effects on pain and 2) the behavioral and neurophysiological qualities of responders and non-responders to this treatment.This will be a randomized sham controlled trial with two groups: real or sham high frequency repetitive TMS protocol (20Hz). The protocol will be done daily for two weeks. Clinical, functional and neurophysiological evaluations will be assessed at baseline, post intervention and at 6-week follow up.

NCT ID: NCT05189899 Withdrawn - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Pain's Treatment With Virtual Reality in Hemodialysis

Start date: February 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pain is a frequent and difficult to treat symptom in patients with advanced kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics have complex pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in these types of patients, so non-pharmacological therapies could be very useful. In this project the investigators propose to test whether the use of a virtual reality platform, designed by the company Psious and tested in other clinical settings, can reduce the pain that patients experience during connection to the dialysis session. For this the investigators have designed a crossover clinical trial, which will be carried out on 107 hemodialysis patients, in which the intensity of pain (primary objective) and anxiety (secondary objective) that patients experience in the sessions in which participants are treated Using virtual reality, it will be compared with the intensity of pain and anxiety experienced by these same patients, in sessions in which the virtual reality platform is not used. The results of this clinical trial can support the use of virtual reality as an adjunctive pain treatment in patients with advanced kidney disease.
