Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy in Neuropathic Painful Spinal Cord Injury Patients
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of high-frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation(rTMS) therapy applied to the dorsolateral PFC (DLPFC) area on neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury. In this area, there are very few studies on the effectiveness of rTMS treatment added to medical …
SCS for Patient With Painful Diabetic Neuropathy and Peripheral Arterial Disease
The study involves permanent spinal cord stimulator (SCS) placement in participants with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN). Participants will be between 19 and 89 years old, have diabetes with symptoms of neuropathy, and have a starting pain level of at least 5 cm on a visual …
The Impact of Preoperative Aromatherapy Upon Time to First Analgesia Request After Cesarean Section
one of the main aims of anesthesia is to reduce postoperative pain. However, many drugs that are used for this purpose, especially opioids, have side effects such as respiratory distress, nausea, itching, and gastrointestinal bleeding . Recent studies have indicated interest in using complementary therapies such as heat and cold …
Discovery and Analytical Validation of Inflammatory Bio-signatures of the Human Pain Experience
The first objective of the study is to evaluate whether a novel bio-signature (derived from a wide range of pro- and anti-nociceptive IL-1 family cytokine activity) will predict pain experienced and also release of underlying endogenous opioid neurotransmitters during an experimental nociceptive pain challenge, which will be performed while simultaneously …
the Best Approach for Blocking Intercostobrachial and Medial Brachial Cutaneous Nerves in the Upper Arm Surgery
Brachial plexus block (BPB) alone, whether performed at the axilla or more proximally, does not provide sufficient anesthesia for the skin of the medial upper arm and elbow, because thoracic roots contribute to the innervation of these areas. For surgery of the upper arm, the brachial plexus block needs to …
Study of Low-intensity Focused Ultrasound Effects on Heat Evoked fMRI Signals
Study aims to examine the effects of noninvasive brain stimulation on brain signals. This insight may have potential clinical implications for addiction, pain, and mental health populations. Participants will receive MRI and CT imaging. Participants receive low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) to temporarily change brain activity. Participants then receive fMRI scans …
MBCT-T for Preoperative Pain Catastrophizing and Pain Outcomes After Spine Surgery
This is a two phase study. In phase 1, a focus group (N=5) will be conducted to adapt MBCT-T for use in the study population. In phase 2, a single-arm trial will be conducted examining four, weekly sessions of preoperative MBCT-T in subjects with high pain catastrophizing scheduled for spine …
Effect of Virtual Reality and Music Therapy on Pain Relief in OPH Operations
Outpatient hysteroscopy can serve as a diagnostic procedure to evaluate for abnormal uterine bleeding, such as menorrhagia or postmenopausal bleeding. This study focuses on the therapeutic aspect of outpatient hysteroscopy, such as myomectomy, polypectomy, intrauterine adhesiolysis and removal of lost intrauterine devices, etc. Apart from the conventional polyp scissors and …
Brain Circuitry Changes in Central Poststroke Pain: a Clinical and Neuroimaging Study
Central poststroke pain (CPP) is estimated to affect up to 10% of stroke patients and is one of the most difficult-to-treat conditions with a detrimental effect on patient's quality of life. So far, no drug has proven efficient to alleviate CPP and neuromodulation approaches including Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and …
Traumatic Long-term Memory of Pain in Humans
Few studies have focused on understanding the mechanisms underlying pain memory in humans. Thus, this project aims to investigate the link between pain memorisation and memorisation of the associated context by addressing the issue of pain conditioning. The study is composed of two successive parts: one pilot then one experimental. …
