Filter by:In summary, this small-scale study is designed to demonstrate that the NFX88 is safe and well tolerated, as well as preliminary evidence of improvement in the score of VAS, PD-Q, and PGIC scales.
In this randomized controlled study, investigators planned to investigate the efficacy of oral occlusive splint and therapeutic home exercises in increasing the quality of life and reducing somatic and neuropathic pain in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction, determine their effects on other clinical data, and report long-term outcomes
This study evaluates the acute effect of aerobic exercise and yoga on pain, plasma levels of endocannabinoids, and mood (i.e., mood disturbance and anxiety). Participants will complete three separate sessions on different days. The first session is a familiarization session in which participants complete questionnaires and are familiarized with the experimental protocols. During the second and third sessions, outcomes are measured before and after the participants complete either 44 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise (i.e., walking on a treadmill) or 44 minutes of yoga.
Pain is the most common component of the morbidity seen in sickle cell disease (SCD), and may be acute or chronic. It is most commonly acute and a result of the hallmark vaso-occlusive episodes of the disease. Many patients however suffer from chronic pain - defined as pain lasting over three months- with neuropathic pain being a component of chronic pain. Neuropathic pain significantly contributes to the chronicity and morbidity of pain in SCD patients, and is an inadequately managed complication. There is a paucity of literature covering this area, and it has never been examined in the Jamaican population. The main objective of this study is to determine the epidemiology of pain among Jamaicans with SCD, and determine the prevalence of chronic and neuropathic pain among these patients. A second objective is to validate, using gold-standard measures, screening tools to determine neuropathic pain among the study population. This cross-sectional study will investigate the prevalence of neuropathic pain and complications in a sample of persons with SCD in Jamaica aged 14 years and older, with a validation sub-study to be conducted on a random 20 percent of the sample. With improved diagnosis of neuropathic pain, clinicians may potentially improve the management of pain in SCD, as clinicians should be able to direct our treatment toward medications and non-pharmacological methods of pain relief that are more specific for neuropathic pain. All data will be de-identified and maintained in a secure database, with access limited to key personnel. There is very minimal risk to participants.
This feasibility study primarily aimed to assess the technology acceptance and usability of a pain tracking software in patients with spinally referred chronic pain. The secondary aim was to assess the fluctuations in pain intensity and distribution, using the pain tracking software during a 3-month period. Additionally, the study aimed to explore the patients' behavior when self-reporting pain when given the opportunity to use a variety of pain quality descriptors, such as tingling, burning and stabbing. Patients with spinally referred chronic pain will be recruited to participate. Participants will be asked to use a pain tracking software to create weekly pain reports for a 3-month period. These pain reports consist of pain drawings and intensity scales. Additionally, patients will complete baseline disability and pain catastrophizing online questionnaires. The project does not affect treatment or does not offer any intervention.
This study evaluates the safety and feasibility of using high dose topical capsaicin patches for the treatment of neuropathic pain in pediatric patients with sickle cell disease, as well as the feasibility of using a number of tests for the evaluation and monitoring of neuropathic pain. The hypothesis, based on evidence obtained from studies in adults with neuropathic pain related to other diseases as well as a single previously published study of capsaicin in pediatric patients, is that capsaicin will be well tolerated in this population. Additionally, it is hypothesized that it is feasible to monitor changes in neuropathic pain via the testing listed below.
This study is planned to evaluate patients with upper extremity neuropathic pain due to cervical radiculopathy with clinical symptoms, Quantitative Sensory Testing(QST) and Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging(fMRI). Patients with similar charactheristics will be grouped and comparisons will be conducted in fMRI results, as well as QST.
Pilot Interventional study with minimal risks and constraints, prospective, monocentric. Safety and Efficacity evaluation of a Novel Medical Device.
Non-pharmacological treatments for pain relief are more and more used in clinical care although any scientific validation. Among the non-pharmacological treatments of neuropathic pain relief, TENS (Electrical Nerve Stimulation Therapy) is the major treatment with the best benefit. Unfortunately, the use of TENS by patients appears very difficult. Because of this inconvenience, more than 40% of TENS users interrupt the treatment despite treatment benefit. A new TENS device: actiTENS that seems to be less constraining than TENS is now available in France. ActiTENS efficacy and safety compared to TENS need to be investigated. The main objective is to evaluate and to compare the use of actiTENS, with TENS Eco 2, the classical device in patients with chronic neuropathic pain.
This is a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover, phase IIa study to investigate the efficacy and safety of oral LAT8881 in neuropathic pain.
