Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the improvement of fibromyalgia syndrome obtained following active stimulation compared to sham, with diminished functional disability and improved health status using Exopulse Molli suit stimulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Evaluation of pain, fatigue, mood and quality of life changes observed after active stimulation in comparison to sham. Improvement of fibromyalgia syndrome as per the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) Study subjects will participate in: A randomized sham controlled double-blind trial to demonstrate the improvement of pain, quality of life, fatigue and mood in adult patients with fibromyalgia following a 2-week intervention of "active" versus "sham" Exopulse Mollii suit. A 2-week washout period should be enough to prevent a potential carry over effect. After this phase (phase 1), a second open label phase (phase 2) will be proposed for patients to understand the effects of Exopulse Mollii suit employed for 4 weeks (7 sessions per week) on the studied outcomes.
An observational cross-sectional study will be conducted on 90 female students (right dominant) aged 19-26 years at Jazan University, they will have 40 points or more on Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale (SAPS) and will be divided into three groups (30 students for each): Group I (BMI<25kg/m2), Group II (BMI 25-30kg/m2), and Group III (BMI >30 kg/m2). Pain pressure thresholds were measured using a pressure gauge algometer (PGA) over trigger points in the neck muscles.
This study is intended to test whether a brief Zoom-based behavioral treatment can help adults with fibromyalgia learn effective strategies for reducing pain, disability and other problems that can come with fibromyalgia (such as depression or anxiety).
The aim of study is to examine the chronotype preferences of patients with fibromyalgia syndrome and the relationship between central sensitization and chronotype, and to examine its relationship with pain intensity, disability and quality of life.
Fibromyalgia is conceptualized as non-inflammatory syndrome with manifestation in the musculoskeletal system associated with chronic generalized pain, fatigue, mood and sleep changes. Laying on of hands therapies are intended to prevent injuries, promote health recovery and harmony between the physical, mental and spiritual dimensions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of laying on of hands with and without a spiritual connection on the mental and physical health, well-being and quality of life of women with fibromyalgia. 72 patients will be divided into 3 groups: control - without imposition of hands, imposition without spiritual presence with the intention of healing and imposition with spiritual presence through the spiritist passe.
This study aimed to investigate the effects of thoracic chiropractic manipulations on pain intensity, depression levels, sleep, and quality of life in women diagnosed with fibromyalgia. The research included 50 female participants aged 25-45 who had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia between 2022 and 2023 at Şişli Hamidiye Etfal Education and Research Hospital. The participants were randomly divided into two groups: a chiropractic treatment group and a control group. Both groups completed pre-treatment assessments using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Short Form 36 (SF-36). The chiropractic treatment group received thoracic chiropractic manipulations (HVLA) twice a week for a total of six sessions over three weeks, while the control group received sham manipulations. A week after the final session, all participants completed the assessments again.
Transauricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is a newer delivery system, using a non-invasive stimulation device placed at the ear's concha. TaVNS is a portable, safe, and low-cost intervention, and according to some studies, taVNS may influence nociception and pain perception, which can lead to potential applications for various painful illnesses, including fibromyalgia (FM). This trial aims to investigate the clinical effects of taVNS on pain control in FM subjects.
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of intravenous lidocaine versus intravenous ketamine in treatment of fibromyalgia patients.
The study aims to gather knowledge about the patient's acceptance of the intervention and testing procedures, assess the adherence to the intervention, estimate the recruitment rate, and inform the sample size calculation for a subsequent randomized controlled trial.
In this study, the effects of 4-week Cherry seed pillow application on pain and quality of life in individuals diagnosed with fibromyalgia will be examined.
