View clinical trials related to Chronic Pelvic Pain.
Filter by:Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is considered as nonmalignant recurrent or continuous pain related to the structures of the pelvis. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of graded exposure therapy in women with chronic pelvic pain.
The purpose of this study is to assess and validate the clinical criteria of sensitization ("Convergences PP criteria") selected by the expert consensus with neurophysiological sensory testing.
This is a prospective, Single time point, discovery study intending to identify biomarkers that can differentiate endometriosis from other underlying reasons for pelvic pain. Patients undergoing laparoscopy for evaluation of chronic pelvic pain or elective tubal ligation will be enrolled for collection of tissue samples at the time of laparoscopy.
A prospective random control clinical trials to research Fuke Qianjin capsule's effects on ameliorating the pain caused by chronic pelvic disease.
Endometriosis is associated with different types of pain (acute, chronic, excess nociception, neuropathic) generated by different mechanisms in the nervous system. The rTMS could provide significant analgesia for refractory endometriosis pain. The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for analgesia on chronic refractory endometriosis pain.
The presence of trigger points in the pelvic floor musculature (PFM) is a frequent condition in individuals with chronic pelvic pain (CPP) and is associated with higher levels of pain, disability and functional decline. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of two interventions: pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training with biofeedback and PFM training with the addition of trigger point dry needling applied over(Lumbar square, psoas, external obliques, gluteus medius, piriformis and adductors) on pain and quality of life of women with CPP.
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in women is common, painful and disabling and puts much strain on women's lives and the (National Health Service) NHS. CPP may be related to internal organs, the nervous system or psychological factors and is often difficult to treat. Surgery and drugs have risks and side effects, are expensive and do not help all patients. Psychological treatments have potential to improve CPP but are not consistently available. Mindfulness meditation teaches people to accept their sensations and emotions in the present moment. This can help to accept pain better, which enables patients to focus on daily activities and improve their quality of life. It has been shown to help in headache, back pain and depression. Usually mindfulness meditation is taught by attending courses for 8 weeks. The investigators want to find out in a full-scale trial if mindfulness meditation, taught by using a smartphone app, can help CPP patients. In preparation for this full-scale study the investigators will conduct the MEMPHIS study to answer the following questions: - How many patients are willing to participate? - How often they use the app? - Reasons for not wanting to participate/not using the app - - Which health questionnaires are the most useful ones? - How many patients will be required for the full-scale trial? Patients will receive the usual treatment and be divided into three groups - using a 60-day mindfulness meditation app, -- using comparison app with progressive muscle relaxation but no meditation - no app Patients will complete health questionnaires, may be asked to comment in a focus group and record pain, medication changes, surgery and emergency medical visits
Adenomyosis is characterized by the appearance of endometrial cells in the muscular layer of the uterus. It affects about 15-20% of the female population. The symptoms of adenomyosis are heavy menstrual bleedings and painful menstruation (dysmenorrhea) and in addition chronic pelvic pain. Regarding treatment levonogestrel-releasing intrauterine system, Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-analogues, Danazol, uterine embolization and endometrial ablation have been tried. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and usefulness of association of oral contraceptive pill and LNG-IUS or LNG-IUS alone
The purpose of this study is to determine the percentage of women, among those attending our institute in order to do Pap test, suffering of chronic pelvic pain. To such purpose the patients will be submitted to questionnaires.
One of the main symptoms of endometriosis is pain, but his pathogenesis is not fully understood. The detection of mast cells in the endometriosis lesions supports the hypothesis that mast cell degranulation may contribute to development of pain and hyperalgesia. N-acylethanolamines (NAEs) are a class of endogenous compounds that regulate inflammation and pain, controlling mast-cell activation. The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of palmitoylethanolamide-polydatin combination on pain relief in symptomatic patients with endometriosis.
