View clinical trials related to Pelvic Pain.
Filter by:Lumbopelvic pain refers to self-reported pain in areas of lower region, anterior and posterior pelvic tilt or combination of these. Physical therapy interventions used are breathing exercises with and without core stability exercises. Tool used were Pain Pressure Algometer and Oswestry Disability Index.
Myofascial Pelvic Pain (MPP) is a frequently overlooked musculoskeletal cause of chronic pelvic pain affecting 10-20% of all adult women. Despite high prevalence and societal costs, few effective treatments exist and are difficult to access due to shortages of skilled personnel. Treatments for MPP using electrical stimulation to induce muscle fatigue have proven efficacy at reducing pain, improving circulation, and promoting tissue healing, but have proven difficult to implement in gynecologic practice. The aim of this three-arm randomized study is to evaluate the utility of transvaginal electrical stimulation at a fixed frequency of 200 Hz in women with symptomatic MPP in comparison to the standard, first-line treatment with education, stretching, and low-impact exercise. Nursing staff without prior training will be taught to deliver this high-frequency transvaginal electrical stimulation (HF-TES) treatment using the device. Responses to treatment provided by a specialist physician and licensed vocational nurse will be compared. Patients with >50% pain improvement will determine the effectiveness of HF-TES. Responses to treatment provided by a specialist physician and licensed vocational nurse will also be compared. Participants will be followed for 3 months following treatment completion.
The purpose of this study is see if Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) units help decrease endometriosis flare pain. TENS units have a 510K and are intended for relief of pain associated with sore or aching muscles of the lower back, arms, or legs due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities. Participants will complete surveys, record pain, medication use and bleeding in an online diary during endometriosis flare ups for 3 months without using the TENS unit. After the first 3 month period of time, a TENS unit will be given to participants to wear and again, record pain, medication use and bleeding in the online diary during endometriosis flare ups for and additional 3 months while using the TENS unit.
Often the etiology of chronic pelvic pain is not clear, as there are many disorders of the reproductive tract, gastrointestinal system, urological organs, musculoskeletal system, and psych neurological system that may be associated with chronic pelvic pain. An effective treatment for this condition has evaded the medical profession for centuries. Even today only 20-25% patients respond to conservative management.5 When such treatment fails, a diagnostic laparoscopy is performed.1, 3, 6 the cause of the pain is not always obvious as no pathology is seen in 40-60% of the cases.1
Urethral pain syndrome (UPS) is defined by the occurrence of persistent or recurrent episodic urethral pain in the absence of proven infection or other obvious pathology. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of an intraurethral and vaginal laser therapy for the treatment of UPS. The hypothesis is that a significant reduction of urethral pressure pain can be achieved.
Background: Vulvodynia and chronic pelvic pain (CPP) are common and challenging gynecologic pain syndromes. A multidisciplinary approach is recommended. Study aim: To study the effectiveness of acupuncture as part of a multimodal treatment for women with vulvodynia and CPP. Design: Randomised controlled clinical study Study Population: Recruitment from a University outpatient clinic Study groups: Participants will be randomised (1:1) - Acupuncture group - Waiting list control group Sample size: 68 patients Study outcome - Subjective Pain Perception (VAS) - Health-related quality of life (questionnaires)
Cancer related pelvic pain can be debilitating and difficult to treat. Superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis (SHPN) is considered to be an option for adequately relieving pain, with fewer side effects and improving the quality of life
The goal of this observational study is to determine the clinical validity of a deep neural network algorithm that utilizes protein biomarker detection of Endometriosis - "EndoCheck" - as an "aid in diagnosis" for endometriosis and to show validity as a diagnostic test
In the study it will be tested whether transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis. Hypothesis: Transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with patients with endometriosis.
The aim of the study is to assess the effects and safety of acupuncture for moderate to severe chronic pelvic pain in women.
