Evaluation of the Effectiveness of tDCS in the Management of Perioperative Pain

Post-Operative Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of tDCS in the Management of Perioperative Pain

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new medical technology can help reduce post-operative pain. The new technology is called Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation.

Clinical Trial Description

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the management of postoperative pain. Specifically, this study will determine whether patients undergoing any type of inpatient surgical procedure that routinely requires at least a 1-day inpatient stay post-operatively will report less pain and use less opioid analgesics following a series of 20-minute sessions of tDCS (compared to sham tDCS) delivered up to twice per day post-operatively. In addition to comparing the effects of real tDCS to sham tDCS, the present study will evaluate the interaction of dose (number and frequency of tDCS sessions) and surgery type. ;
