Cannabidiol and Older Adult Cannabis Users
Cannabis use increased 10 fold among adults over the age of 65 between 2014 and 2016 but very little data exists on the extent of their harmful effects on health and behavior. The overarching goal of this project is to test a novel harm reduction strategy in which older individuals …
Opioid Sparing Anesthesia Care for Pediatric Patients Having Tonsil Surgery
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study of patients undergoing tonsil surgeries at Boston Children's Hospital Waltham. The overall aim is to evaluate the efficacy of an opioid anesthetic plan (morphine, ketorolac, and acetaminophen versus an opioid sparing anesthetic plan (dexmedetomidine, ketorolac and acetaminophen) for perioperative analgesia and recovery …
Cannabis for Palliative Care in Cancer
Many cancer patients suffer from pain, sleep, and mood problems and are using cannabis to relieve these symptoms. Cannabis may provide such relief but may also produce negative side effects including cognitive impairment, an especially problematic issue for cancer patients, indicating more research on cannabis use in the cancer context …
Effects of Schroth-Based Exercise on Kyphosis Angle, Muscle Strength, Balance, Pain, and Quality of Life in Hyperkyphosis With Chronic Neck Pain
The normal thoracic kyphosis angle of the spine is 20-40°, however, an angle of more than 40° is referred to as postural kyphosis, increased kyphosis or hyperkyphosis. Although postural kyphosis negatively affects individuals' general health status, physical performance, and quality of life, there is still no standardized protocol for correcting …
Development and Validation of a New Questionnaire for Caregivers to Assess Hip Pain in Quadriplegic Pediatric Patients: Non-Ambulatory Hip Pain Questionnaire
The goal of this clinical trial is twofold: to develop a questionnaire for care givers to assess hip pain in quadriplegic pediatric patients who are not able to communicate it independently to validate this questionnaire in a cohort of 100 pediatric patients with quadriplegia Researchers will : involve 10 experts …
Strength Training and Proprioceptive Stimulation on Pain, Function, Quality of Life, Sleep Quality, and Psychosocial Factors in Older Adults With Shoulder Pain
A single-blind randomized clinical trial with a pretest posttest design is proposed in adults over 60 years of age with chronic shoulder pain due to rotator cuff involvement. Participants will be divided into an experimental group that will receive a multi-joint strength exercise program along with proprioceptive somatosensory stimulation plus …
The Effect of Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation on Brain Characteristics, Pain Intensity, and Cognitive Functions in Older People with Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effects of accelerated intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) on pain relief and cognitive function in older adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain. It will also utilize magnetic resonance imaging to illustrate the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the role of iTBS in improving …
