Multimodal Analgesia Utilization and Acute Postoperative Pain After Major Surgery at Mulago National Referral Hospital
The goal of this observational study is to understand the approach to pain management before, during, and after surgery at Mulago National Referral Hospital. It is focussed on adult patients undergoing major surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: How often are combinations of pain medications utilised before, …
The Impact of Gender Affirming Hormone Therapy on Pain In Gender Minority Adults
TRANSPIRE is an observational study of ~200 individuals who (1) will be initiating gender-affirming hormone therapy (GHT) or (2) are gender minority individuals who do not use GHT. The primary outcome will be to identify how the presence of chronic pain changes overtime with GHT through the use of surveys, …
Sex, Hormones and Identity Affect Nociceptive Expression
The Investigators have recently published on differences in pain sensitivity measures between cis and trans individuals in the local area. The investigators observed the anticipated differences in pain sensitivity between CM and CW (CW > CM), but found that the TW were phenotypically similar to CW in all measures. However, …
Diamagnetic Therapy in Pain and Inflammation
This is a prospective longitudinal single-center clinical study on pain patients treated with Low Frequency High Intensity- Pulsed Magnetic Fields (LF-HI-PEMF; diamagnetic therapy) . Patients were enrolled at baseline (T0) and then were monitored at 30 days (T1), 60 days (T2), 90 days (T3). and 360 days (T4). The first …
Chronic Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The objective is to identify modifiable clinical factors and neurobiological pathways that lead to the development of chronic pain in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis. Participants will undergo quantitative sensory testing, a type of testing that involves assessing response to well-defined, quantifiable painful stimuli, at 0, 3, and 12 months. …
Does Edema Affect the Adjustment of TENS Amplitude
The goal of this pre-post clinical trial is to compare the amplitude settings of three different frequency TENS modes (Conventional TENS, LF TENS, HF TENS) in patients who had undergone total knee arthroplasty, both with the preoperative state and with the contralateral knee. The main question it aims to answer …
Can Medical Cannabis Affect Opioid Use?
The goal of this observational study is to learn how medical cannabis (MC) affects pain and the use of opioid pain medications. Participants who have chronic pain and use prescribed opioid pain medication will opt-in to using MC or not for the 3-month study. Participants who are certified in Pennsylvania …
Quantitative Sensory Testing and Central Sensitization in Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a gynecologic condition where there is growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to severe pelvic pain. Despite conventional treatment, many patients experience persistent pelvic pain due to central sensitization (CS), where the central nervous system amplifies pain signals. Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) enables objective testing of …
COMT and OPRM1 Polymorphisms and Their Effect on Post-Operative Pain in Children
The goal of this observational study is to investigate whether the A118G single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the mu-opioid receptor1(OPRM1) and Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) SNPs influence postoperative pain scores in children between the ages of 8 and 18 undergoing orthopedic, abdominal, thoracic, and plastic surgeries. The main question[s] it aims to answer …
Changes in Thoracolumbar Fascia Stiffness and Pain Parameters in Young Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
This study aims to investigate the biomechanical parameters of thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) and pain-related properties including pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (ppt) and pain sensitivity in young adults with non-specific chronic low back pain (LBP), both those experiencing chronic low back pain (LBP) and without LBP.
