Filter by:Brachial plexus neuropathies, specifically of the median, radial, ulnar, suprascapular, axillary and dorsal scapular nerves, can arise when a peripheral nerve trunk or nerve root is subjected to injury, compression, inflammation or ischemia, resulting in reduced physical capabilities of the peripheral nervous system. Although pharmacological treatments provide mild symptomatic relief in the short term, they are not without side effects. Neurostimulation techniques may be an effective treatment option for peripheral brachial plexus neuropathies. Some of these procedures are transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) or percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (PENS). Although some case series have documented a positive effect in relation to ultrasound-guided PENS for subjects with subacromial pain syndrome or postsurgical pain, the lack of studies, to our knowledge, analyzing the effects of percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, in relation to pain and paresthesias in subjects with brachial plexus neuropathy, warrants investigation for this goal.
The main purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of repeated administrations of BoNT-A in subjects with NP attributable to carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Further research has shown that BoNT-A has analgesic properties independently from its action on muscle tone, possibly by acting on neurogenic inflammation. Therefore, the study drug may be better than other treatments surgical or non-surgical currently available for the treatment of CTS.
This study will comprehensively investigate the insula as a brain target for neuromodulation to treat chronic neuropathic pain.
The aim of this study to evaluate the relationship of neuropathic pain with urinary and bowel incontinence, functional disability and quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Neuropathic pain occurs due to one or several lesions of the central or peripheral nervous system. Spinal cord stimulation is now recommended in France by the Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) to relieve chronic refractory neuropathic pain (HAS 2014) in the trunk, upper and lower limbs. Spinal cord stimulation can be done either through a standard spinal cord stimulator or with a rechargeable spinal cord stimulator. In this study, the investigators aim at assessing the recharge procedure and their constraints for consecutive patients operated for spinal cord stimulation with a rechargeable stimulator for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain at the site by the same surgeon between 2019 and 2020.
The investigators have shown in incomplete SCI patients that long-term paired associative stimulation is capable of restoring voluntary control over some paralyzed muscles and enhancing motor output in the weak muscles. In this study, the investigators will administer long-term paired associative stimulation to patients with incomplete cervical level SCI and SCI- associated neuropathic pain, and investigate its effectiveness for neuropathic pain treatment.
This research will provide a better understanding of the interaction of chronic neuropathic pain and its interaction with the mental state. In addition, he will compare the results of simple classical physiotherapy intervention with cognitive physiotherapy intervention in chronic neuropathic pain. Finally, it will highlight the usefulness of integrating elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy in physiotherapy intervention to achieve a comprehensive anthropocentric therapy.
Neuropathic pain (NP) is one type of refractory chronic pain condition,medical treatments for NP is limited because of its poorly response.Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can induce neuroplastic changes which has been used to manage chronic pain conditions. Indeed, high-frequency (≥ 5 Hz) rTMS over the primary motor cortex (M1) is suggested to be able to reduce neuropathic pain in randomized controlled studies. Overall, the clinical application of rTMS in chronic pain is still limited by the response rate, whereby it is close to moderate and far from being excellent at its best. Therefore this project designed a series of clinical trials to optimize the analgesic efficacy of rTMS. According to the research results of investigators previous project, patients with neuropathic pain were divided into responders and non-responders after 5 consecutive days of 10HZ rTMS or pcTBS intervention (see project ID:2021-0751)according to the change of pain intensity, and then different trials will be applied to responders and non-responders to optimize the analgesic effect of rTMS.
Phase IIIb confirmatory study of efficacy and safety, longitudinal, multicenter, randomized, double-blind study of the combination Pregabalin/Tramadol versus Pregabalin in the management of acute pain of neuropathic origin.
Phase IIa clinical trial will be conducted with patients requiring in-label paclitaxel-chemotherapy due to ovarian or breast cancer. The efficacy of a 12-week telmisartan treatment, starting one week before planned paclitaxel-administration to prevent PIPNP (paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathic pain) will be assessed by measurement of occurrence of clinical symptoms of PIPNP as well as lipid profiles
