Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Low Back Pain
As a leading cause of disability worldwide, chronic low back pain (cLBP) represents a significant medical and socioeconomic problem with estimated health care spending of $87 billion/annually. The efficacy of dorsal column electrical stimulation to inhibit pain was first described over 50 years ago. Since then, several large clinical trials …
The Effect of Yoga Practice on Chronic Back Pain

Surgery is only an option in a minority of these patients, usually confined to those with structural …
Effects of tDCS Combined With CBI on Postsurgical Pain
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new medical technology can help reduce post-operative total knee or hip pain when combined with a Cognitive-Behavioral intervention (CBI). This new medical technology, is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), it uses a very small amount of electricity to temporarily …
Peri-operative Oral Pain Control Following Buccal Graft Urethroplasty
Patients undergoing buccal urethroplasty will often have significant post-operative oral pain from the graft site. Various graft harvest techniques and methods for post-harvest hemostasis including graft site closure have been explored. Despite the frequency of this clinical scenario there is no established best practice for peri-operative pain management in this …
Resiniferatoxin to Treat Severe Pain Associated With Advanced Cancer
This study will examine the safety of giving the experimental drug, resiniferatoxin (RTX), to treat severe pain in patients with advanced cancer. RTX is a chemical extracted from a cactus-like plant. It is similar to capsaicin, the active ingredient in hot pepper. RTX has relieved pain and reduced the need …
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation for Post-Cesarean Pain Control
Purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for post-operative pain control after a cesarean delivery compared to placebo and no TENS.
Opioid-Free Pain Control Regimen Following Robotic Radical Prostatectomy
The objective of this study is to conduct a randomized clinical trial to evaluate an opioid versus an opioid-free pathway of perioperative use of ketamine, ketorolac, and IV acetaminophen followed by the postoperative use of ketorolac, and oral acetaminophen for pain associated with robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy. Escalation to use of …

Unfortunately, substantial improvements in people with chronic low back pain are rare, causing most people to live with the pain. People with chronic low back pain may have an …
Dry Needlig Vesus Tecartherapy in Low-back Pain Treatment
Introduction: Diathermy is a new tool that could help subjects with chronic low back pain (CLBP), with no studies having compared it to other interventions already investigated such as dry needling. Hypothesis: Diathermy is more effective than dry needling in improving pain intensity in the short term in subjects with …
Gabapentin Premedication to Reduce Postoperative Pain for Pediatric Tonsillectomy
The purpose of this pilot study: 1) to examine the use of gabapentin in reducing pain in the first 48 hours postoperatively including the total amount of narcotics mg/kg given 2) to record the time to first analgesic postoperatively and 3) to compare Wong Baker and the 0-10 numeric pain …
