Chronic Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Neurofeeback for Chronic Pain Project (NFB Project)
This study evaluates the effectiveness of neurofeedback (teaching participants to gain control over their own brainwaves) in chronic pain. The study is made up of four pilot studies. Participants who take part will undergo the cold pressor test, submerging their hand in cold water in order to simulate chronic pain. Brain activity will be measured using electroencephalography (EEG).
Chronic pain is a persisting pain which often exists in the absence of detectable tissue
damage. It is also associated with feelings of depression, anxiety, and despair. Current
treatments for chronic pain usually involves drug treatments, which often has unwanted side
effects.
This study aims to assess the effectiveness of neurofeedback, which refers to teaching
participants to gain control over their own brainwaves, as an intervention to treat chronic
pain. It is believed that by teaching participants to gain control over a brain signal
associated with pain resilience, the participant can reduce some of the negative effects
associated with chronic pain.
Participants who take part in this study will have their brain activity recorded using
electroencephalography (EEG), and have pain elicited using the cold pressor test (CPT), which
involves the participant submerging their wrist in cold water to elicit a chronic pain-like
sensation. This is a safe, regularly used method, and the participant is free to remove their
hand early if the pain becomes too great.
Some participants who take part will undergo neurofeedback training, which will involve them
viewing a signal associated with pain resilience, and learning to increase it over multiple
sessions.
