NCT06795386
The goal of this observational study is to learn if surgical weight loss can improve chronic widespread pain in people living with higher BMI who self-identify as Hispanic/Latino ethnicity or non-Hispanic Black based on the United States census racial categories. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Do pain at rest (primary outcome) and movement-evoked pain (secondary outcome) improve after bariatric surgery? 2. Do pain processing and joint function change after bariatric surgery? 3. Are pain processing and joint function associated with clinically significant pain change after surgical weight loss? Researchers will compare pain and function before and 6 months after bariatric surgery in a single cohort.
NCT05218967
The purpose of this study is to compare patient's pain and anxiety undergoing laryngeal procedures and esophageal manometry while wearing a VR headset to standard of care. It is hypothesized that patient's using the VR headset during the procedure will have reduced pain and anxiety as compared to their standard of care counterparts because the VR environment will distract them from their procedure.
NCT05226676
Around 80% of people with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop chronic neuropathic pain (CNP). This is a debilitating condition with major negative impacts on people's quality of life. Many treatment options have been offered (invasive stimulation, drugs) but provide limited effects and many secondary effects. There is a critical need to develop a new generation of therapies. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive and painless brain stimulation technique that allows researchers to explore and change brain excitability that has shown promising effects in neuropathic pain. However there is not enough evidence of what are the long lasting effects of the different protocols. In this study, 30 SCI subjects with CNP in their hands will participate in the study. The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of real versus sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and investigate 1) short and long term effects on pain and 2) the behavioral and neurophysiological qualities of responders and non-responders to this treatment.This will be a randomized sham controlled trial with two groups: real or sham high frequency repetitive TMS protocol (20Hz). The protocol will be done daily for two weeks. Clinical, functional and neurophysiological evaluations will be assessed at baseline, post intervention and at 6-week follow up.
