Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of vulvar and intravaginal application of PBM compared to the sham group on pain and sexual function in women with dyspareunia . The main question [s] it aims to answer are: - What are the effects of vulvar and intravaginal application of photobiomodulation (PBM) compared to the sham group on the sexual function of women with dyspareunia in the immediate post-intervention moments and in follow-ups of 15, 30, 90 and 180 days? - What are the effects of vulvar and intravaginal application of photobiomodulation (PBM) compared to the sham group on pain in women with dyspareunia in the immediate post-intervention moments and in follow-ups of 15, 30, 90 and 180 days? Participants will The GPBM photobiomodulation group will receive, during the 8 days of intervention, application in 8 points (4 red and 4 infrared) in the vulvar region and 8 points (4 red and 4 infrared) in the intravaginal pelvic floor region of PBM while the GS group will receive simulation application of PBM in the same number of vulvar and intravaginal points, in the same places where it was applied in the GPBM group. To see if 8 applications of photobiomodulation are really capable of reducing pain and improving sexual function in women with dyspareunia
The aim of this planned randomized controlled clinical study is to evaluate the morbidity of the palatal donor area after free gingival graft (FGG) operations. In this study, wound healing and pain levels in the palatal region will be evaluated after cyanoacrylate and concentrated growth factor (CGF) applications.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the topical application of Novox® Drop on surgical wounds after the extraction of lower third molars can have a clinical advantage. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the possible reduction of masseteric trismus (masticatory muscle spasm - primary outcome) and of post-operative pain and facial edema (swelling - secondary outcomes) after the extraction of impacted third molars compared to those who do not use it (placebo=glycerin-based gel).
The principal objective is to contribute valuable insights that hold direct implications for medical practice and patient care, with the potential to influence health policy pertaining to fibromyalgia management.
The purpose of this study is to explore whether a non-invasive form of ear stimulation called transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) can change the way participants perceive pain. Investigators will recruit up to 20 participants with chronic post-stroke upper extremity pain. The goal is to determine if there is a pain reduction after ear stimulation.
This project is a single-site, single-arm, clinical feasibility trial examining the impact of a single-session, 2-hour Guided Respiration Mindfulness Therapy training for chronic musculoskeletal pain.
The research will be conducted using a randomized controlled experimental method.The preterm newborns included in the study will be randomized into three groups using the sealed envelope method. In the facilitated tucking position + oral breast milk group, preterm newborns will be placed in the facilitated tucking position 15 minutes before tape removal and given oral breast milk 2 minutes before. This position will be maintained until 2 minutes after tape removal. Preterm newborns in the kangaroo care + oral breast milk group will undergo kangaroo care 15 minutes before tape removal and receive oral breast milk 2 minutes before. Kangaroo care allows mother-baby interaction but no feeding. In the control group, newborns will undergo routine nesting with gentle touch and verbal comfort provided if they cry.This study is designed to evaluate the effect of the fetal position, oral breast milk administration, and kangaroo care on pain during tape removal in preterm newborns.
The investigators primary purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of a short course use of steroids following surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) will improve post-operative pain management and shorten hospital length of stay.
Dental caries, particularly in primary molars, significantly affects children's oral health and overall well-being. Traditional management with stainless steel crowns (SSCs) involves significant tooth reduction and advanced dental skills. Introduced in the 1970s, the Hall technique offers a less invasive alternative, minimizing tooth reduction compared to SSCs. The SMART Hall technique represents a further evolution, emphasizing atraumatic cavity preparation using hand instruments. It offers advantages like minimal or no tooth reduction, minimized discomfort, improved patient cooperation, shorter treatment times, and cost-effectiveness. Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) emerges as a promising non-invasive approach for managing dental caries in primary teeth, though it may cause temporary tooth discoloration. However, comparative evaluation with traditional SSC restorations remains limited. To address this gap, a randomized clinical trial will evaluate the treatment outcomes of the SMART Hall technique versus conventional SSC restoration for managing occluso-proximal carious lesions (ICDAS CODE 3/4/5) in primary molars of young patients. Children aged 3 to 9 years requiring restorations will be included, assessing clinical outcomes, treatment time duration, and radiographical outcomes of both techniques at specific follow-up intervals of 3 months & 6 months. This split mouth study will explore Clinical outcomes, radiographical outcomes, treatment time duration, and patient's pain perception with the chosen treatment modality. The findings will provide insights into the effectiveness and feasibility of the SMART Hall technique compared to the traditional SSC approach, informing evidence-based decision-making in pediatric dentistry and influencing treatment recommendations for preserving the health and function of primary molars in young children.
Dry needling is a common physical therapy technique that uses solid acupuncture needles that are repeatedly inserted and removed into the human body. These techniques, despite their benefits, can cause pain. The objective of this study is to analyze the use of virtual reality as a distractor in invasive techniques in physiotherapy. The hypothesis is that the use of immersive virtual reality, evoking relaxation situations, will reduce the sensation of pain during and/or after the technique. To do this, healthy participants will be recruited and the participants will be divided into two groups (experimental and control). Participants in the experimental group will undergo the dry needling technique on latent myofascial trigger points along with the use of immersive virtual reality. The same technique will be performed on participants in the control group but without the use of virtual reality. Pain during and after puncture and strength after puncture will be evaluated.
