Active clinical trials for "Causalgia"

There are no studies as yet specifically investigating the application of DRG stimulation in the treatment of chronic pain affecting the upper limbs. The investigators propose to investigate the effect of dorsal root stimulation in patients with chronic hand or upper limb pain.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the pain coverage capability of the RESTORE spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and assess health outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to examine the short and long-term benefits of implementing early regional anesthesia techniques for pain control after a major traumatic injury to one or more extremities during combat in the Iraqi/Afghanistan war, including the effects on acute and chronic pain, quality of life, and mental health.

The complex regional pain syndrom is a weighty disease that often results in a lifelong disability. Mostly this disease appears unilateral after comparatively mundane fractures or operations. In early stages CRPS shows inflammatory processes. These inflammatory components can be seen as edema and vasodilatation. These inflammatory processes lead us to the hypothesis that selective COX-2-inhibitors might help patients with CRPS.
