View clinical trials related to Musculoskeletal Pain.
Filter by:Chronic musculoskeletal pain is a major health problem in 35% of the general population in most developed countries. In addition to interventional therapies, the cognitive and behavioral abilities of the patient, are important for the solution of chronic pain. All of these abilities of patients are called coping strategies of pain.
A randomized clinical trial for Veterans age 50 years and older with chronic musculoskeletal pain in which Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET) is compared against Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to evaluate acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of the two treatments on pain and other outcomes, as well as potential mediators of treatment response.
Employees working in IT industry are prone to develop musculoskeletal pain,specifically back, neck and shoulder pain. This study evaluates the effectiveness of work-site yoga intervention, Yoga@work on neck and shoulder pain in IT employees.
Erosive arthritis (EA) is an unusual pathology. There is no definitive treatment and the conventional one has little efficacy. Despite using magnetotherapy (MGT) as a treatment, there is no evidence supporting its use.
This study evaluates nervous system hypersensitivity in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and experiences of ongoing musculoskeletal (MSK) pain. Previous results and current literature suggest that MSK pain in IBD may be influenced by hypersensitivity of the central nervous system, termed central sensitization. However, specific mechanisms contributing to pain experiences are unknown. Therefore, primary aims are to explore aspects of central sensitization through sensory testing in this population, and to investigate association of psychological and IBD features to sensory profiles. This study hypothesizes that IBD patients with MSK pain will demonstrate altered sensory function, and IBD/psychosocial features will be associated with altered sensory functioning and worse pain experiences.
A pilot randomized controlled trial to assess feasibility, acceptability and generate outcome domains for a future RCT testing the efficacy of immersive virtual reality on pain intensity in pediatric amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome.
The sporty performance exhibited by an athlete faces physiological, biomechanical and psychological activity of the athlete. It depends on both the psychological state and the elevation of the musculoskeletal system to a certain level so that the athlete can perform optimally and excellently. For this reason, we aimed to evaluate the musculoskeletal system pain of amateur and professional athletes in different disciplines and the psychosocial states such as sports confidence, depression and quality of life.
Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is a major public health concern. Approximately one in four consult their general practitioner (GP) with a musculoskeletal problem during the course of a year, making it the largest diagnostic group. Modifiable factors including affective disorders (e.g. anxiety and depressive symptoms) and sleep problems may be important prognostic factors for MSK pain. However, there is a lack of prospective research examining the interaction between these conditions in patients with MSK pain in a GP-setting.
Chronic pain affects millions of Americans but integrative as well as conventional treatments fall short in terms of alleviating this pain. The investigators are testing a tailored online positive affect skills intervention through a high-quality, randomized controlled trial for people with chronic musculoskeletal pain. The proposed work holds promise as an effective, low cost, easily disseminated intervention to help people cope with chronic pain, decrease depression and distress that pose barriers to optimal adherence, and potentially boost the efficacy of integrative as well as conventional pain treatments.
The broad aim of this study is to implement and evaluate the efficacy of Graded Exposure Treatment (GET Living) to target elevated pain-related fears in children with chronic pain at the Stanford Pediatric Pain Management Clinic (PPMC). The investigators will evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of this intervention for children with high levels of pain-related fear and functional disability. If proven efficacious, it will allow for the dissemination of this innovative treatment model to others working with children and adolescents with chronic pain.
