Filter by:Pain is the predominant and most feared symptom of pancreas cancer, and is often incompletely relieved. Scrambler Therapy is a new way of treating pain by providing "non-pain" information to confuse the nervous system and reset the damaged nerve pathways. It has been useful in treating many types of pain, but has not been adequately tested in the pain associated with pancreas cancer. The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of Scrambler Therapy on typical abdominal pain associated with pancreas cancer. The investigators hypothesize that pain scores from day 0 (pre) to day 28 (post) will be reduced by at least 33%, e.g. from 6/10 to 4/10.
Compare Thai versions of the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) and the Hospiral Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-5), as a screening tool for depression in cancer pain patients
Primary Objective: To determine the feasible dose range of Painkyl® required for Taiwanese population. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of Painkyl® by calculating squared mean of pain intensity difference at 30 minutes after taking Painkyl® (SPID30, an 11-point scale). To evaluate subjects' satisfaction by conducting global evaluation of medication performance (a 5-point categorical scale). To identify percentage of episodes requiring rescue medication during maintenance treatment period. To evaluate the safety data of Painkyl® for breakthrough pain.
To investigate the occurrence of cognitive dysfunction in cancer patients with pain in China.Analysis of patients with different cancer pain, different analgesic drugs and different treatments are associated with the severity of cognitive dysfunction, to provide relevant evidence for the next screening, prediction, prevention and treatment. In order to achieve the purpose of improving the quality of life of cancer patients.
Typically, in North America, acupuncture is performed on an individual basis. However, community acupuncture, also known as group acupuncture, is an emerging method of treating patients. Cancer patients, post-treatments were given acupuncture treatments to help alleviate pain, in a two-arm randomized trial.
Many patients with cancer experience moderate to severe pain that requires treatment with strong opioids, of which oxycodone and morphine are examples, they are widely applied in clinical treatment because of sustained-released formulation can reduce dosing frequency. Goal of pain management is get adequate analgesia and minimize the adverse event at the same time, but in fact there are about 10%-30% patients can't get adequate analgesia because of intolerable adverse event. The common adverse event of Controlled-Release Oxycodone(CR Oxycodone ) are nausea (29.9%)、constipation （25.4%）、dizziness（22.4%） and vomit（11.9%），about 32.8% patients treatment was discontinued because of these adverse event. The peak concentration of opioid is related to adverse event, while the valley concentration is correlated to the analgesic effect. Therefore, if we keep the daily dose while increase the dose frequency so that reduce the single dose, it's will help to avoid intolerable adverse event caused by excessive opioid peak concentration and keep the opioid analgesia at the same time. It's a reasonable way to solve the side effects of opioid. In order to explore the effect of change the dosing frequency of CR Oxycodone to treat refractory pain, pre-experiment have done by several clinical centrals in Fujian province. Preliminary results show that for the patients who can't accept the current opioid dose because of intolerable side effect, changing the dosing frequency is a safe and effect way.
This is a single-arm, open label, multinational, multicentre, prospective, real world observational study of Naloxegol in adult subjects with Opioid Induced Constipation (OIC) in patients receiving Naloxegol in routine clinical practice. Subjects who are receiving Naloxegol (prescribed by their physician according to the SmPC, which recommends that all currently used maintenance laxative therapy should be halted) during the enrolment period may be eligible for enrolment into the study.
fluoroscopic group & includes 30 patients where SHPB will be done Fluoroscopic-guided (the posterior oblique trajectory technique.the double modality group & includes 30 patients where SHPB will be done using our described new technique of performing the modified Mishra technique by injecting 3-5 ml of contrast media (lohexol=omnipaque) after getting the target position.
The present investigation aims at exploring the effect of including a pain app called Pain Monitor irruptive oncological pain for chronic pain patients' daily monitoring. Two conditions will be set: 1. usual treatment (waiting list) 2. usual treatment + APP
Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) is a rapid onset, high intensity and short duration pain episode, which takes place within stable background pain control. It significantly affects the quality of life of patients with cancer and their ability to function normally. Rapid onset opioids and immediate-release oral opioids (e.g. morphine sulfate, hydromorphone, and oxycodone) are the standard treatment for BTcP. Because of the limited availability, high cost, complicated titration and the high risks of overdosing with rapid-onset opioids, most often the preferred choice of treatment is immediate-release oral opioids. However, this approach might not always offer optimal speed for onset of action and duration to match the rapid nature of an episode of BTcP. In order to seek a potential alternative to immediate-release oral opioids, we are proposing to test the onset of action of PPP001 to rapidly alleviate breakthrough pain in patients with cancer. We will also examine the safety and the efficacy on pain intensity of PPP001 within this population.
