Post Operative Pain Clinical Trial

Official title: The Role of Neurofeedback Training and Pain Management in Post-operative Shoulder Rehabilitation: a Study Connecting Neural Mechanism and Clinical Results

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary aim is to compare the efficacy of neurofeedback training (NFT) and pain management protocol (PMP) in pain reduction, restoration of shoulder function, and improved cognitive performance as the post-operative rehabilitation protocols in shoulder pain patients.

Clinical Trial Description

The primary aim is to compare the efficacy of neurofeedback training (NFT) and pain management protocol (PMP) in pain reduction, restoration of shoulder function, and improved cognitive performance as the post-operative rehabilitation protocols in shoulder pain patients. While the former modulates neural activity, the latter focuses on biopsychosocial aspects of pain, respectively. Also, we will measure the peripheral cytokine levels of rotator cuff injury to clarify the possible role of peripheral inflammation on central neural activities. By incorporating the behavior (both motor and cognition), peripheral inflammation, and neural activity, we believe this study would bridge the gap between mind and body as the "whole person" approach to understanding musculoskeletal pain and its appropriate therapy. ;
