Filter by:This study will examine the effectiveness of one of two virtual reality treatments on neuropathic pain in individuals with spinal cord injury.
This study will look into the effectiveness of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in reducing chronic neuropathic pain in patients who have not had previous spinal surgery. This will be assessed by comparing the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) questionnaire responses before and after the SCS intervention. We will also investigate the effect of HD frequency parameters on the improvement of quality of life, sleep and any adverse events following the spinal cord stimulation.
This study aims to investigate the clinical response to Spinal Cord Stimulation frequency parameters: 40Hz, 4000Hz and 10000Hz and explore the brain imaging changes using PET-CT scans. The response to these stimulator settings on health related quality of life will also be measured using validated questionnaires.
Rationale: In 2016, Henssen et al. discuss that orofacial pain may be conducted in a bilateral fashion, inducing activation of both thalami [1]. For this reason, bilateral stimulation of the motor cortex is thought to induce a stronger analgesic effect compared to unilateral motor cortex stimulation by transcranial magnetic stimulation. Objective: To investigate the superiority of bilateral transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) over unilateral TMS of the motor cortex Study design: Double-blind, randomized controlled trial Study population: Patients that suffer from chronic orofacial pain and have not been treated (yet) with any form of neuromodulation. Intervention (if applicable): One group receives bilateral TMS whereas the other group receives unilateral TMS for one month. After one month, the groups switch treatment protocol. Main study parameters/endpoints: Modification in intensity of pain as measured using the VAS, the influence the relief of pain with regard to quality of life and daily activities using the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Time investment of patients.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if memantine administered for four weeks starting two weeks before surgery induces a decrease in pain intensity at 3 months post-mastectomy.
This study evaluates the analgesic effect of Omnitram for the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy. Each subject with diabetic neuropathy will be treated for four weeks with Omnitram and for four weeks with placebo. The order of the Omnitram and placebo treatment will be random.
This study evaluated the safety, tolerance, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of d-methadone in a limited dose range, in multiple administrations in humans.
This study evaluated the safety, tolerance, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of d-methadone in a limited dose range, in single administrations in humans.
The investigators hypothesize that SCI patients using immersive IVR training will show improved reduction of neuropathic pain that will outlast the training sessions and transfers into daily life.
The aim of this project is to study the role of transient receptor potential (TRP-) channel V1 (TRPV1+) fibers in the development of cutaneous inflammation induced by epidermal Ultraviolet-B damage. Moreover, in this project the investigators want to evaluate if the capsaicin-desensitization action can still be induced in a skin area pretreated with topical, local anesthetic lidocaine.
