Cortical Stimulation by Direct Current for the Treatment of Chronic Pain : Pilot-study of a Stimulation Device at Home
The purpose of this study is to confirm the analgesic effect of tDCS in neuropathic chronic pain, to estimate the importance and the duration of this effect, and to improve its efficiency by the use at home. It is established that the repetition of the sessions of cortical stimulation over …
rTMS Efficacy Coupled With Mirror Therapy
Neuropathic pain is particularly difficult to treat with classic first-line drugs. Neuromodulation techniques using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are useful alternative, but there is a need to improve their analgesic effect.Virtual reality mirror therapy has shown the capacity to alleviate pain and may be easily coupled with rTMS.The present …
Pragmatic Trial of Remote tDCS and Somatosensory Training for Phantom Limb Pain With Machine Learning to Predict Treatment Response
The investigators have designed a pragmatic trial of home-based transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for phantom limb pain (PLP), the PLP-EVEREST trial (PLP-EffectiVEness pRagmatic Stimulation Trial) to test a portable device that would reach underrepresented populations and would validate this therapy in a more pragmatic setting. Subjects will be randomized …
Physical and Functional Effects of Online Exercise Program on Musicians Playing Stringed Instruments
Musculoskeletal problems related to instrument playing or performance are frequently seen in musicians. Different interventions such as strength training, endurance training and yoga have been used in the management of these problems. The first specific exercise program for professional orchestra musicians was developed by Chan et al. However, it has …
Immersive Healing: The Therapeutic Potential of Virtual Reality
Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a significant and pervasive issue among upper limb amputees, severely impacting their quality of life. The literature delineating prevalence of upper versus lower limb amputations is limited, but the prevalence of total amputations in the United States is estimated to reach 3 million individuals by …
Investigating the Development, Validity, and Reliability of the Avoidance of Sports Activities Photo Scale
"Investigating the Development, Validity, and Reliability of the Avoidance of Sports Activities Photo Scale" is crucial in determining the specific functional status of the shoulder joint, especially for overhead athletes experiencing shoulder pain, to identify which sporting activities restrict them the most and to fill the gap in the literature. …
The Effect of Progressive Relaxation Exercise
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effect of a childbirth preparation program that includes progressive relaxation exercises on pregnant women's preferences for mode of delivery, their experience of labour pain, and breastfeeding comfort. Participants in the intervention group will receive a specially developed educational booklet and an audio CD …
A Study of Contralateral Limb Block
This research is being done to determine if an anesthetic like Lidocaine, may be effective when injected around the sciatic nerve of the intact limb in patients with limb loss pain on the contralateral side.
Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (PMS) Effects on Somatosensory Perception in Patients with Upper Limb Amputation
The study investigates the capabilities of peripheral magnetic stimulation (PMS) as a tool for creating somatosensory sensations of various submodalities and analyzing the dynamics of bioelectric signals of the brain (using encephalography (EEG)) in healthy participants and participants with upper limb amputations. During the experiment, the participants' subjective sensations and …
Vitamin D Supplementation on Reported Rates of Taxane-Induced Neuropathy
This is a two-arm randomized clinical trial in which 80 participants with Vitamin D deficiency and scheduled to begin taxane-based chemotherapy will be randomized to either: 1) prescribed vitamin D replacement or 2) standard of care.
