Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test whether non-invasive brain stimulation, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) may alleviate pain associated with various chronic pain conditions. We will test various methods of TMS to identify a treatment approach that may reduce the symptoms of chronic pain for the patient.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-0663B (etoricoxib/tizanidine) among participants with moderate-to-severe acute low back pain.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate tapentadol Extended Release (ER) in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic pain in participants with a diagnosis of chronic low back pain (LBP) or osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip or knee after conversion from hydrocodone, oxycodone Controlled Release (CR), and/or morphine Sustained Release (SR).
This is an open label study of up to approximately 52 weeks duration to assess the safety and effectiveness of BEMA Buprenorphine in the management of moderate to severe chronic low back pain. BEMA Buprenorphine is an oral transmucosal form of the opioid analgesic, buprenorphine hydrochloride, intended for application to the buccal mucosa. Buprenorphine is a synthetic opioid that is classified as a partial μ-receptor agonist and a Schedule III controlled substance in the United States.
A0081256 is a prospective, open-label, multi-centre European study designed to raise awareness and enhance the diagnosis of patients with chronic low back pain with a neuropathic pain component in primary care who are refractory to standard analgesic therapy and/or one treatment for neuropathic pain and evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of pregabalin in this population. The impact of pregabalin on analgesia, patient satisfaction with treatment, patient anxiety and depression, sleep interference, physical functioning and work productivity will be assessed.
1. To show that patients with greater pain sensitivity will show greater improvement in their symptoms (self-reported pain intensity, mood, sleep, and quality of life) than those with lower pain sensitivity, based on QST, after taking milnacipran. 2. To compare outcome differences (pain intensity, mood, activity interference, sleep, and side effects) with those patients who are either taking or not taking opioids for their pain 10 weeks after being prescribed milnacipran. 3. To show that patients who are older, male, with more medical comorbidities, greater disability, and longer pain duration will report less improvement (pain, mood, sleep, health-related quality of life) and treatment satisfaction while taking milnacipran compared with others without such characteristics.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a physiotherapeutic intervention is effective in the treatment of low back pain in hemodialysis patients
The purpose of this study to determine if cells collected give us information about what is causing a patient pain can be detected and connected with epiduroscopy images (pictures taken with a small fiber optic scope). We want to determine if abnormal areas are the source of that pain by using a catheter to provide a brief, low intensity electrical stimulation. We also want to determine if there are cells in the epidural cavity (area surrounding the spinal cord) of patients who have low back pain with or without pain shooting down one or both legs that provide information about what is causing the pain.
Although discography and spinal imaging techniques, either alone or in combination, are commonly used to diagnose discogenic pain, their exact role in predicting surgical results are poorly defined. Our aim in this study is to compare the ability of Functional anesthetic discography (FAD), and Provocative Discography (PD) to diagnose discogenic pain and to correctly identify the disc levels for the surgical treatment. Proper identification for disc levels should improve the overall results of surgery for this condition. Patients with discogenic pain have better outcomes if the disc levels for the fusion surgery are identified by using FAD compared to similar disc level identification by PD.
The purpose of this study is to generate further insight into the role and effectiveness of the amide local anesthetic lidocaine as an adjuvant postoperative analgesic after adult spine surgery. The effect of perioperative intravenous lidocaine infusion on postoperative rehabilitation and the inflammatory response will also be examined.
