NCT ID: NCT06209801 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Mirror Therapy Integrated With Electrical Stimulation for Cortical Modulations

Start date: March 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Peripheral nerve injury is common and can result in loss of sensation and motor function, reduced quality of life, and prolonged time to return to work. Maladaptive cortical reorganization occurs after nerve injury or immobilization and can further impair the recovery process. To improve the sensorimotor prognosis of people with peripheral nerve injury, methods such as mirror therapy, motor imagery, and electrical stimulation have been used in addition to usual care. However, no studies have shown the effect of integrating mirror therapy, motor imagery, and electrical stimulation in these individuals. Furthermore, the real-time effect of mirror therapy on cortical activation in this population remains unexplored. This study aims to determine the real-time cortical modulation effects of mirror therapy combined with electrical stimulation in individuals with peripheral nerve injury.

Mirror Therapy Combined With Contralaterally Controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation for Peripheral Nerve Injury

Start date: March 29, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this trial is to evaluate the effects of mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation on motor recovery and neuroplasticity in patients with peripheral nerve injury. The main questions it aims to answer are Question 1: To compare corticomuscular coherence between the groups of mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation, sham mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation, and control group. Question 2: To compare sensorimotor recovery between the groups of mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation, sham mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation, and control group. Question 3: To evaluate the effects of each intervention on corticomuscular coherence and sensorimotor recovery 12 weeks post-intervention. Participants will be asked to exercise their affected hand together with the unaffected hand while receiving contralaterally controlled electrical stimulation in front of the mirror or sham mirror. Researchers will compare the effects of mirror therapy combined with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation on corticomuscular coherence and sensorimotor recovery with the other groups.

NCT ID: NCT06091020 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Moderate to Severe Chronic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain (PNP) Due to Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN) or Peripheral Nerve Injury

PaiNT
Start date: November 22, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

In this clinical trial, participants with nerve pain after shingles or nerve injury will receive injections with NT 201 or placebo. The purpose is to measure the decrease of nerve pain with NT 201 compared to placebo. Trial details include: - Trial duration: 22-23 weeks; - Treatment duration: 1 injection visit with a 20-week follow-up period; - Visit frequency: 2 remote visits by phone/video call (1 week and 12 weeks after the injection); 2 on-site visits (6 weeks and 20 weeks after the injection).

NCT ID: NCT06071988 Recruiting - Pain Clinical Trials

Long Term Efficacy and Tolerability of AP707 in Patients With Chronic Pain Due to Traumatic or Post-operative Peripheral Neuropathy

Start date: November 2, 2023
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Over the last years a rising medical need for treatment of chronic pain was identified. Based on previous findings indicating the pain modulating effects of cannabinoids in chronic pain disorders, this clinical trial investigates the long term efficacy and tolerability of the THC-focused nano endocannabinoid system modulator AP707 in patients with chronic pain disorders due to traumatic or post-operative peripheral neuropathy. Patients receive AP707 or placebo over the course of 14 weeks as an add-on to the standard of care. Changes in pain intensity, quality of life and sleep and others measures are monitored through different scales to assess the efficacy of AP707 in patients with chronic pain due to traumatic or post-operative peripheral neuropathy.

NCT ID: NCT06003166 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Peripheral Nerve Injury

4-AP Peripheral Nerve Crossover Trial

Start date: April 2024
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of single dose 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on the diagnosis of severing vs non-severing nerve injury after peripheral nerve traction and/or crush injury. The investigational treatment will be used to test the hypothesis that 4-aminopyridine can speed the determination of nerve continuity after peripheral nerve traction and/or crush injuries allowing the identification of incomplete injuries earlier than standard electrodiagnostic (EDX) and clinical assessment. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups to determine the order of treatment they receive (drug and placebo vs placebo and drug). Participants will undergo baseline testing for nerve assessment, receive either drug or placebo based on randomization and undergo hourly sensory and motor evaluation, EDX testing and serum 4AP levels for three hours after dosing. Participants will then repeat this with the crossover arm.

NCT ID: NCT05898568 Completed - Clinical trials for Peripheral Nerve Injury, Virtual Reality, Rehabilitation

Virtual Reality in Hand Peripheral Nerve Injuries Effectiveness of Based Movement Therapy

Start date: April 1, 2023
Phase: N/A

Non-invasive Therapy to Drive Nerve Regeneration

Start date: September 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Peripheral nerve injuries are common and often associated with poor outcomes including incomplete repair, debilitating pain states and compromised function. Although nerve regeneration can be enhanced by brief electrical nerve stimulation at the time of or before surgical repair in rodents and humans, this approach is invasive. Acute intermittent hypoxia, breathing alternate cycles of regular air and air with ~50% normal oxygen levels (11% O2) is an emerging, promising non-invasive therapy promoting respiratory and non-respiratory muscle function in spinal cord injured rats and humans. Because the entire body is exposed to this therapy, it has the potential to globally impact the nervous system beyond just controlling respiratory and leg function in spinal cord injured patients. Thus, the investigators hypothesized that an acute intermittent hypoxia paradigm similar to that used for spinal cord repair will improve peripheral nerve repair in a manner akin to electrical stimulation, including its impact on expression of regeneration-associated proteins - a predictor of nerve growth states. In recent studies the investigators found this to be the case and now propose to continue these promising studies by performing a pilot clinical trial evaluating this form of treatment on patients with compromised hand function due to severe carpal tunnel syndrome. The goal is to improve nerve repair outcomes in the least invasive and optimal manner.

NCT ID: NCT05611983 Recruiting - Nerve Injury Clinical Trials

Experience and Feasibility of Methods for Early Sensory Training

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The good effects of using guided plasticity for a rehabilitative purpose in case of nerve damage have been shown, but a problem that has been presented is that some individuals find it difficult to assimilate these effects due to difficulties in carrying out abstract training or due to a lack of motivation. In early sensory training, the plasticity of the brain is used. Methods for early sensory training that have been described are: 1) mental imagery of touch (mental imagery), 2) observation of touch, 3) mirror training, 4) use of images for visualization of touch. The method needs to be developed and refined to be able to offer individual training plans in order to find a motivating and meaningful form of training.
