Filter by:There is a significant debate whether local infiltration techniques may be a method to treat complicated chronic pain syndromes, e.g. refractory headache. Until now there is a lack of evidence regarding efficacy of this treatment especially in long term follow up. Similarly, indication and management are under debate. Aim of this trial is to analyse pain scores during first treatment with anaesthesiological infiltration series.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Efficacy and safety of pregabalin sustained release tablet versus placebo for postherpetic neuralgia.
This study compares the efficacy of the ultrasound with fluoroscope in guidance of lumbar sympathetic block (LSB). The goals of the study are; 1) To show that US-guided LSB results in shorter performance time compared to fluoroscope-guided LSB, 2) To evaluate the efficacy and safety of US-guided LSB, and 3) To verify that US-guided LSB has similar success rates to fluoroscope-guided LSB. 50 patients who are supposed to undergo LSB due to sympathetically maintained pain, satisfy criteria of inclusion and exclusion, and voluntarily sign the informed consent will be enrolled.
In Post-Herpetic Neuralgia(PHN) patients: - To conduct an explorative investigation of the efficacy and safety of repeated oral doses of TRK-700 via a randomized double blind comparative study - To measure the plasma concentration of TRK-700 and its metabolites
Complex oro-facial pain is a poorly diagnosed and poorly treated cause of significant suffering and disability. This study will explore the ability of fMRI to identify patients with complex oro-facial pain who respond to transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy. Specific Aims: 1. To establish baseline patterns of MRI in patients with chronic oro-facial pain without a definitive etiologic diagnosis. 2. To estimate the rate of treatment success of transcranial stimulation of the primary motor cortex (M1) in these patients. 3. To identify post-treatment MRI patterns that are associated with treatment success.
Investigate the safety and efficacy of DS-5565 in Japanese subjects with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain (DPNP) with renal impairment or Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN) with renal impairment.
The investigators conducted a randomized, Double blind, and Controlled Study to evaluate the Efficacy and safety of Lidocaine Infusion Treatment in Management of Neuropathic pain.
The purpose of this study is to assess the burden of Herpes zoster (HZ) and post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) among people ≥ 50 years old in France, in terms of healthcare resources used, medical direct and indirect costs, as well as pain severity and impact on quality of life.
30% mannitol cream has shown its ability to reduce the activation of the Capsaicin (TRPV1) (Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1) receptor, a likely cause of the pain of post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN). This randomized placebo-controlled crossover study compares PHN pain one week before, for one week on the randomly assigned mannitol versus placebo cream and, after a three day washout, for one week on the other cream. Following this crossover study, participants receive mannitol cream for three months. Pain levels will be checked to assess whether continued use of this cream significantly reduces the pain levels associated with PHN. If pain persists beyond 3 months, participants will be offered mannitol and menthol cream for one month following which their pain levels will be checked.
The study is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group comparison (two dose levels of EMA401 versus a placebo group), of safety and efficacy in patients with postherpetic neuralgia.
