ACT for ME/CFS - an Open Case Trial

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

The goal of this research project is to evaluate if our well-researched behavior medicine treatment model for chronic pain, based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, is safe and effective in increasing quality of life and functioning also in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). To date there are no effective treatments for ME/CFS as the ethology and pathophysiology are unknown, while levels of functioning and quality of life as well as secondary effects such as depressive and anxiety symptoms indicate a highly affected patient population. As such, there is a need for behavior medicine approaches that aim to alleviate suffering and promote increases in quality of life for these patients. The aim of the present study is to do a preliminary evaluation of the safety, acceptability and efficacy of an ACT-based treatment protocol for ME/CFS. An additional aim is to explore potential mediators of change for the effect of treatment on disability.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation as Treatment for Long Covid

Long COVIDChronic Fatigue Syndrome

Many patients do not recover following Covid infection. The resulting illness is called Long Covid. Because there is no agreed upon treatment for this ailment, the research team has decided to do an open label pilot study using non-invasive, transcutaneous stimulation of the auricular branch of the vagus nerve. Inclusion criteria required the patient to fulfill criteria for having chronic fatigue syndrome. To date, fourteen patients provided evaluable data. Eight of these fulfilled the study's requirements for treatment success.

Effects of Workplace Intervention in Occupational Rehabilitation on Return to Work

Mental DisordersMusculoskeletal Diseases2 more

Aim is to study the effect of a work place intervention during a multicomponent return-to-work rehabilitation program on return-to-work. The intervention is compared with inpatient rehabilitation only, and participants will be recruited from the diagnostic groups dominating the sick-leave statistics, namely musculoskeletal disorders, common mental disorders (e.g. stress, depression and anxiety), and unspecific disorders including chronic fatigue.

Cyclophosphamide in Myalgic Encephalopathy/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)

Significant clinical improvements of ME/CFS symptoms were observed in two patients with long-standing ME/CFS who received adjuvant chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide for breast cancer, also in one ME/CFS patient who received chemotherapy including iphosphamide for Hodgkin lymphoma. Three pilot ME/CFS patients were thereafter treated with six intravenous infusions four weeks apart, in two of these with a significant clinical response. The hypothesis is that a subset of ME/CFS patients have an activated immune system, and that ME/CFS symptoms may be alleviated by treatment with cyclophosphamide as intravenous pulse infusions four weeks apart, six infusions in total. The purpose of the present study is to treat ME/CFS patients with cyclophosphamide as intravenous pulse infusions four weeks apart, six infusions in total. The effects on ME/CFS symptoms and tolerability/side effects during 12 months follow-up will be registered, and additional tests will be performed to objectively register changes in physical ability during follow-up. Studies to investigate possible large vessel endothelial dysfunction and skin microvascular dysfunction will be performed before start of intervention and during follow-up.

Mental Training for CFS Following EBV Infection in Adolescents

Fatigue SyndromeChronic1 more

The general aim of this study is to investigate the effect of an individually tailored mental training program in adolescents developing chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) after an acute Epstein Barr-virus (EBV) infection. Endpoints include physical activity (primary endpoint), symptoms (fatigue, pain, insomnia), cognitive function (executive functions) and markers of disease mechanisms (autonomic, endocrine, and immune responses).

Subjective Memory Complaints, Objective Memory Performance and Cognitive Training

Fatigue SyndromeChronic4 more

The aim of this study is to examine if repetitive computerized cognitive training improves working memory in patients who are on sick leave due to complex symptom disorders (chronic pain, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression and or sleep disorders), and whether effects of cognitive control training transfer to other tasks.

Acupressure for Pain Management and Fatigue Relief in Gulf War Veterans

Persian Gulf SyndromeChronic Fatigue Syndrome

This study will provide symptomatic veterans with acupressure treatment and determine its effectiveness in fatigue relief and pain management for Gulf War Illness (GWI). Investigators plan to recruit patients reporting symptoms of GWI through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and randomize them into acupressure group (to receive acupressure treatment) and control group (to receive Reiki treatment). The acupressure treatment, twice per week for 6 weeks, will be offered by a licensed acupressure practitioner. Evaluations will be made before and after treatment (at 6 weeks). Clinical outcomes will be compared between groups (acupressure group vs. control group) and between different timepoints (before treatment vs. after treatment) within the same group. The results of this study may provide useful information to develop more effective treatment for veterans with GWI disease. Since acupressure treatment is of Asian origin and has shown excellent promise within its Eastern traditions, if successful, this study has the potential to produce a paradigm shift in clinical practice to more effectively relieve the symptoms of veterans with GWI disease. Meanwhile, as a non-invasive therapeutic massage, acupressure may lend to better patient acceptance and ultimately, greater clinical accessibility. Hypotheses Acupressure besides routine clinical care will produce a more complete fatigue relief and pain alleviation in veterans with GWI versus routine clinical care plus reiki treatment. EEG measures will exhibit a positive change when fatigue is relieved and pain is alleviated for symptomatic veterans after effective treatment.
