Brain Imaging Biomarkers for Response to Spinal Cord Stimulation in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
In this protocol, "Brain imaging biomarkers for response to Spinal Cord Stimulation in patients with chronic low back pain," the investigators plan to perform brain mapping studies in 42 patients who are undergoing spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for chronic low back pain (CLBP) as part of the participants normal clinical …
A Study of the Association Between Frailty and Acute Postoperative Pain in Elderly Thoracoscopic Surgery Patients
To gain a clearer understanding of the association between frailty and postoperative acute pain in elderly thoracoscopic surgery patients and its underlying mechanisms, to provide new solution ideas to reduce the level of postoperative acute pain and improve the debilitating state of elderly thoracoscopic surgery patients, and consequently improve their …
Short-term Effect of Using Non-immersive Gamified Exercises on Chronic Pain in People With Stroke.
Rehabilitation after stroke is essential to minimize permanent disability. Gamification of exercises has emerged as a promising strategy for increasing motivation and rehabilitation efficacy in people with stroke. However, there is a gap in understanding how exercise gamification can aid in pain management among people with stroke who are experiencing …
Evaluating the Efficacy and Patient Experience of Catheter-Free Intravesical Instillation
This study aims to evaluate a catheter-free method for delivering medications directly into the bladder, known as intravesical instillation, which is commonly used to treat conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder cancer, and post-chemotherapy or post-radiation cystitis. The study investigates whether this method, …
The Forgotten Role of Back Muscle Characteristics to Tailor Exercise Therapy for Recurrent Non-specific Low Back Pain
Patients with non-specific low back pain will be compared to healthy, age- and sex-matched controls to determine the most discriminating back muscle characteristics and to delineate possible phenotypes of patients with non-specific low back pain showing impaired proprioceptive postural control. Additionally, the group of patients with non-specific low back pain …
Methadone Pharmacokinetics in End-stage Renal Disease
The goal of this observational study is to describe the influence of renal function on the pharmacokinetics of methadone used through an intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) pump for the management of acute postoperative pain. After surgery the participants will use an IV-PCA of methadone and blood samples will be withdrawn …
Response Profiles to High-concentration Capsaicin Desensitization in Patients With Peripheral Neuropathic Pain With or Without Allodynia: a Regional Multicenter Prospective Cohort
Prospective multicenter cohort to determine patient profiles (associated factors, including allodynia) with a better response to pain desensitization by capsaicin delivered in the form of a high concentration patch (8%), in a population of patients with peripheral neuropathic pain and followed up in a pain consultation in the Auvergne Rhône …
Precise and Objective Identification of Bertolotti Syndrome Using Novel Kinematic Biomarkers
The purpose of this study is to collect lumbar rotations, velocity, and accelerations, along with pain scores using a novel dynamic VAS device, from twenty (20) Bertolotti Syndrome patients and twenty (20) non-Bertolotti low back pain patients during range-of-motion tasks. The assessments will be analyzed to determine the differences in …
Assessing the Quality of Telephone Follow-Up After Spine Surgery
The aim of this study is to investigate whether the quality of physiotherapy follow-up after spinal surgery can be maintained when conducted by telephone rather than in-person. The study is motivated by the desire to save healthcare resources and reduce the environmental impact of patient travel. Data from patient records, …
Fibromyalgia and Small Fiber Neuropathy
The primary objective of this study will be to assess the proportion of fibromyalgia patients with diffuse small-fiber neuropathy (i.e. in the upper and lower limbs) and compare this proportion to patients with other chronic pains (nociplastic, nociceptive) and with healthy controls. Our analysis will be based on the demonstration …
