The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the factors affecting the development of chronic pain in patients with thoracotomy in the Thoracic Surgery Operating Rooms of İbn-i Sina Hospital. By identifying these factors, it is aimed to apply the necessary treatments to prevent the development of chronic pain and to improve patient outcomes.
This work will answer two critical questions: 1) Does intensive interdisciplinary pain treatment (IIPT) involving aerobic exercise help normalize pain processing in youth with chronic pain syndromes and 2) Are aerobic fitness levels and the ability to modulate pain inter-related? Currently, medications are ineffective for improving pain and disability in youth with chronic pain syndromes and identifying non-pharmacologic treatments, such as IIPT, that help strengthen the nervous system's ability to modulate or turn pain signals down will improve outcomes and quality of life for youth suffering from chronic pain. This study will help determine whether exercise based IIPT leads to physiologic improvements in how pain is processed, specifically if youth with chronic pain can better turn pain down during the offset analgesia test after an exercise based IIPT treatment, and also help elucidate the link between a child's aerobic fitness and their ability to modulate pain.
The aim of this study to evaluate the effects of fibromyalgia syndrome accompanying women with chronic migraine on pain, quality of life, sleep, anxiety and depression, central sensitization and functionality.
The study aims to test a mobile intervention on values and goals in chronic pain patients. The cognitive behavioral intervention is a 10-day course in which participants complete a brief intervention each day (about 10-20 minutes a day). The content of the intervention includes the definition of values; development of individualized values and personal value-oriented goals; and implementation of personal goals in every day life. To assess the effectiveness of the intervention, we use a multiple baseline single case design. Baseline measurements will be assessed daily between 10 and 17 days (the exact number will be randomized). Daily measurements will continue during the intervention. After the intervention, another post measurement will be collected.
We are investigating the effects of a mind-body based mobile application on the experience of chronic pain. Participants meeting our criteria for chronic pain (confirmed via self-report) will complete an online baseline questionnaire. Eligible participants will be enrolled in the study and randomized into control (usual care, waitlisted) or intervention group (6-week mind-body based mobile application intervention). Randomization will be stratified by pain intensity and gender using computer-generated block randomization to create varying block sizes of 4 and 8. We will run the trial in multiple cohorts in series to obtain desired sample size. All participants will complete online questionnaires at baseline and post-intervention at 6 weeks that measure pain intensity, interference with daily living, pain perceptions, mental health outcomes, and medication use. Participants will also complete weekly questionnaires on weeks 2 to 6 to gauge frequency of application usage (intervention) or other pain treatments (control). Participants in the intervention group will be asked to repeat the follow-up questionnaire at 12-weeks.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an Augmented Reality (AR) biofeedback intervention to alleviate pain symptoms in individuals suffering from chronic pain of the hand and/or the forearm.
The overall objective of this study is to better understand how Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is the most helpful in terms of management of chronic pain symptoms. The studies hypothesis is that an Interventional Response Phenotyping study (light phenotyping) can identify individuals with different underlying mechanisms for their pain who thus respond differentially to evidence-based interventions for chronic pain disorders.
The primary aim of this pilot trial is to enhance the efficacy of the Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) intervention by adding neurofeedback (NF) of the Orbitofrontal Cortex (OFC) as an adjunct to the savoring component of MORE. We hypothesize that the use of NF to train OFC responses during savoring will amplify patients' ability to savor and thereby increase brain responsivity to natural rewards; such enhanced reward responding will in turn be associated with improvements in clinical outcomes (e.g., pain, analgesic use).
The goal of this study is to determine if a mind-body intervention can help people suffering from chronic back pain. The study is a randomized, partially blinded trial examining the effectiveness of a mind body intervention in reducing disability from back pain and alleviating back pain in participants as compared to usual care and an active control (second mind body intervention). The investigators will secondarily investigate whether the intervention alleviates anxiety related to the pain and other quality of life parameters.
