Clinical Trial Summary

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic relapsing diseases that generate an autoimmune response against the bowel and its microbiota. Its prevalence is increasing worldwide. These include Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease(CD). The Phrenic nerve originates at the roots C3-C4-C5 carrying motor and sensory information. Directly or through connections it innervates the diaphragm, pleura, right atrium, pericardium, oesophagus, peritoneum, stomach, falciform and coronary ligaments of the liver, Glisson's capsule, hepatic and inferior vena cava, liver (parenchyma), gallbladder and the rest of the biliary tract, pancreas, small intestine and adrenal glands. It also has fibres of the autonomic nervous system. Studies show that there is a link between people suffering from IBD and hepatopancreato-biliary diseases. It can therefore generate referred pain to the C3-C4-C5 dermatomes. Based on the above, the main objective would be to analyse whether non-invasive neuromodulation of the Phrenic nerve reduces neck pain in people with IBD. Secondary objectives were to assess the impact of treatment on quality of life and to study the relationship between IBD and cervical pain. Hypothesis: Non-invasive Phrenic nerve neuromodulation in subjects suffering from inflammatory bowel disease and neck pain will improve their quality of live, disability and sensitisation, as well as neck pain and mobility.
