Filter by:The aim in this prospective, randomized and controlled, single-blind study; In the conservative treatment of patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome, to investigate the effects of neurodynamic exercises that applied with nonimmersive virtual reality technology and patient education program presented by the telerehabilitation method on pain-numbness, functional status and quality of life, to compare the effects of neurodynamic exercises that applied with traditional methods and standard education given to patients in outpatient clinic conditions on the same parameters.
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of hypnosis sessions performed in teleconsultations and led by a nurse, for patients with peripheral chronic neuropathic pain. Acceptability, satisfaction and effects (on pain and psychological distress) are also evaluated, comparing patients who have benefited from teleconsultations and those who did not.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of transcutaneous pulsed radiofrequency current in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Background: Peripheral neuropathy (PN) occurs in half of the people with human immunodeficiency virus (PHIV). Currently, there is no Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment for HIV-related PN. Only half of PHIV who take medications report a significant reduction in pain. Therapeutic Chinese Massage, structured palpations or movements of soft tissues of the body, is a promising non-harmful, and non-costly intervention that can potentially alleviate or even treat PN but relevant research is limited. Method: Investigators conducted a single centered, two-arm, single-blinded randomized controlled trial pilot study to examine if a series of three weekly 25-minute therapeutic Chinese massage sessions by a therapist of therapeutic Chinese massage, compared with placebo massage, could reduce PN-related pain and improve lower extremity functioning in PHIV. Twenty PHIV were recruited from the AIDS Foundation Houston, Inc in Texas. Pain, lower extremity functioning, and health-related quality of life were assessed for both groups prior to and post-massage.
Compare Axon Therapy using transcutaneous magnetic stimulation (tMS) against conventional medical management in treating post-traumatic peripheral neuropathic pain (PTPNP).
This is safety study. Subjects will be undergoing the surgical procedure of nerve biopsy. After routine surgery without grafting, patients develop swelling, redness, tenderness and dysesthesia at the biopsy site. In order to determine whether grafting is safe compared to not repairing the nerve, it is necessary to compare treated vs. untreated patients using systematic, sensitive and reproducible criteria.
To prove the effectiveness of Percutaneous Electrical Neuro-stimulation therapy for the treatment of conditions associated with peripheral neuropathy, in a double-blind environment.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of real acupuncture with placebo acupuncture or usual care on symptoms of nerve damage from chemotherapy.
The FDA-approved MC5-A Scrambler Therapy (MC5-A ST) is an electroanalgesia device that interferes with pain signal transmission by using nerve fibers as a passive means to convey a message of normality (sans pain) to the central nervous system. While preliminary research has demonstrated its efficacy in treating chronic neuropathic pain secondary to cancer and failed back surgery syndrome, its effectiveness in treating chronic neuropathic pain secondary to traumatic musculoskeletal injuries like those experienced in combat has not been investigated. The purpose of this prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled, study is to determine if the MC5-A ST is efficacious in altering the biological, psychological, and social components of the chronic neuropathic pain experience in military Service Members (SMs) with traumatic musculoskeletal extremity injuries.
This clinical trial studies massage therapy in reducing chemotherapy-induced nerve problems (peripheral neuropathy) that may cause pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body in patients with gastrointestinal or breast malignancies. Massage therapy may help reduce chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy symptoms and improve quality of life.
