Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of stellate ganglion block (SGB) in participants with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does SGB treatment improve symptoms of ME/CFS (e.g. brain fog, fatigue)? Do changes in symptoms go along with changes in blood or saliva? Participants will receive a total of six blocks over three weeks (one block on each side, one day apart, per week). Prior to treatment and at two points following treatment, participants will complete surveys, take a cognitive (puzzle type) test, and provide blood and saliva for analysis. Participants will measure their heart rate daily using a free smart phone app.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate differences in neuroimmunoendocrine response and quality of live in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, with or without a co-diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
The primary objective of the present research is to determine the effectiveness of Family Health Center of San Diego's Long COVID and Fatiguing Illness Recovery Program (LC&FIRP) on clinician- and patient-level outcomes. LC&FIRP is comprised of a teleECHO program focused on multi-specialty case-consultation and peer-to-peer sharing of emerging best practices to support management of complex cases associated with Long COVID, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), and other post-infectious fatiguing illnesses (PIFI). Our secondary objective is to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and sustainability of LC&FIRP. Our findings should provide a fuller understanding of the potential impact of innovative technology enabled multi-disciplinary team-based care models in low-resource, community-based primary care settings.
The present study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with an overall objective to examine the effect of an interdisciplinary complex intervention on the level of fatigue in lymphoma survivors with chronic fatigue. Secondary aims are to examine the effects of the intervention on daily functioning, work status/ability, physical fitness and QoL among the survivors, on QoL of their relatives and on the societal costs.The intervention will last for 12+12 weeks and include four components; patient education, supervised physical exercise, cognitive behavioral program and nutritional counselling. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline,post-intervention (12 weeks after baseline) and at 3-month, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month follow-up after completed intervention.
This study is an 8-week single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, flexible titration trial evaluating the efficacy of solriamfetol in the treatment of fatigue symptoms in adult patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. Subjects will be randomized to a solriamfetol group or placebo group. The investigators will utilize an intent to treat model and impute data. The overall goal of this study is to determine the efficacy and effectiveness of solriamfetol for treating chronic fatigue syndrome.
The main objective of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of the VIRTUAL SFCAMINA multicomponent treatment program as coadjuvant of treatmentas- usual (TAU) compared to TAU alone. In this Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), in addition to evaluating the clinical effects of VIRTUAL SFCAMINA treatment in the short- and long term.
Persistent physical symptoms (PPS) might diminish studying or workability and daily functioning without a clear medical or environment-related explanation. Psychosocial, patient-involving treatments that support individuals' abilities managing with the PPS and health behaviours have shown promising effects in treating PPS but the acceptability of these treatments among symptomatic individuals is low. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of an eHealth intervention based on relational frame theory and acceptance and commitment therapy on PPS with two focus groups, among participants with indoor air associated disabling symptoms or persistent, chronic fatigue. This study will compare web program enhanced with video-based individual case formulation with treatment as usual. The web program includes 10 one weeks (pilot included 6 two weeks) modules. In addition to patient-reported outcomes, ecological momentary assessments are conducted to provide real-time data on functioning and national registers are used to obtain information on health-care use and social benefits. Data collection begins in August 2020 and will continue until 2023.
The aim of the present observational study is to evaluate and describe the evolution over time of the fatigue and the quality of life of patients with bone tumor, in Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute, Chemotherapy ward, during the chemotherapy treatment and in the first phase of follow-up and to identify possible prognostic factors. Such knowledge is a necessary precondition for identifying patients and the periods most at risk due to the onset of fatigue, so as to be able to hypothesize adequate containment strategies.
Vestibulodynia (VBD) is a complex chronic vulvar pain condition that impairs the psychological, physical, and sexual health of 1 in 6 reproductive aged women in the United States. Here, the investigators plan to conduct a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial to 1) compare the efficacy of peripheral (lidocaine/estradiol cream), centrally-targeted (nortriptyline), and combined treatments in alleviating pain and improving patient-reported outcomes and 2) determine cytokine and microRNA biomarkers that predict treatment response in women with distinct VBD subtypes. Positive findings from this study will readily translate to improved patient care, permitting the millions of women with VBD, their partners, and their clinicians to make more informed decisions about pain management.
Chronic pain and fatigue are characterized by peripheral and central mechanisms including low pain thresholds, temporal summation, peripheral and central sensitization. This application will focus on central factors of chronic pain and fatigue. Functional brain imaging will be used to characterized brain and spinal cord abnormalities that contribute to the mechanisms of these disorders.
