Active clinical trials for "Pelvic Pain"

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the Peer Empowered Endometriosis Pain Support (PEEPS) program in people living with endometriosis-related pelvic pain. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Is PEEPS effective at decreasing pain interference and improving patient-reported quality of life outcomes? What are the barriers and facilitators to PEEPS implementation? Participants will engage in eight weekly 2-hour sessions led by an endometriosis specialist, pain psychologist, pelvic floor physical therapist, and yoga instructor. At these sessions they will participate in peer support, education, mindfulness, and yoga.

Women with endometriosis experience recurrent pelvic-perineal pain impairing the quality of life, among other things. Endometriosis-related pain negatively impacts the sexual, family and work life. Apart from the usual painkillers, the doctor's current therapeutic arsenal is limited to hormonal contraceptives and surgery. As endometriosis-related treatments do not currently address all of the patients' problems, developing a new, effective, non-pharmaceutical treatment would make it possible to relieve the pain of these women. Endocare treatment consists of visual and auditory therapeutic procedures for pelvic-perineal pain in patients with endometriosis. Moreover, as Endocare is not a pharmacological molecule but a digital therapy, it would not increase the consumption of pharmacological agents. An analgesic effect of Endocare lasting several hours on chronic pelvic-perineal pain associated with endometriosis is expected. The effects of the treatment will be compare to a digital control also integrated in a virtual reality headset identical to the one distributing Endocare allowing to maintain the blindness to the patients and the investigator on the treatment received.

The EPPIC (Easing Pelvic Pain Interventions Clinical Research Program) study evaluates an ultra-brief, 4 session cognitive behavioral pain treatment transdiagnostic in design for urologic chronic pain syndrome (UCPPS) with clinical and practical advantages over existing behavioral therapies whose length and focus limits their adoption by clinicians and coverage for mechanistically similar comorbidities. A theoretically informed, practical, empirically grounded approach will systematically unpack CBT's working mechanisms, clarify for whom it works, ease dissemination, appeal to patients, providers, payers, and policy makers in the COVID-19 era favoring low resource intensity treatments, and reduce cost and inefficiencies associated with high intensity therapies whose complexity, length, and scarcity restricts uptake and impact.

The aim of the study is to assess the effects and safety of acupuncture for moderate to severe chronic pelvic pain in women.

Cancer related pelvic pain can be debilitating and difficult to treat. Superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis (SHPN) is considered to be an option for adequately relieving pain, with fewer side effects and improving the quality of life

The aim of this study is investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique on blood flow velocity, pain, premenstrual symptoms and quality of life in premenstrual syndrome patients. There are tree groups in the study. These groups are; progressive muscle relaxation group, myofascial relaxation technique and control group. Evaluations will be made by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. Participants will be evaluated within the first 3 days of their menstrual cycle. Baseline assessment and post- treatment assessment will be done. Follow-up evaluation will be done on the fifth cycle, two cycles after the post-treatment evaluation.

Objective: Physical therapists utilize telerehabilitation as the common term for telehealth applications. Many physiotherapists worked as telehealth providers during the coronavirus pandemic. The objective of the study will show the efficacy of Telerehabilitation-Based Physical Therapy (TBPT) on pain intensity and treatment satisfaction in patients with chronic pelvic pain. Method: This study is a prospective study of patients with chronic pelvic pain.42 participants will include the study. Patients who have any other distribution pattern of pelvic pain were equally considered for therapy. Women age between 18-50 years will be include. Their symptoms should be one of these follows such as chronic pain in pelvic region, hyperalgesia in vulva, and pain during sitting or intercourse. They will get diagnosed by a gynecologist who is a multidisciplinary team comprising and referred to a pelvic health physiotherapist. Prior to treatment patients will complete questionnaires and interview a pelvic health physiotherapist. Pain symptoms will be assessed with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and The Pelvic Pain Impact Questionnaire (PPIQ) before and after treatment. Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) for evaluating patient satisfaction after treatment. Women with chronic pelvic pain will be treated for 16 sessions (an hour for each session) in 8 weeks with the TBPT technique by the same pelvic health physiotherapist (AB). Patients will apply internal and external trigger point release therapy and self-massage techniques by themselves with Telerehabilitation-Based Physical Therapy.

Study will be a Randomized control trial to check the effects of kegel exercise with and without myofascial release on chronic pelvic pain in females so that we can examine the effect of above techniques on pain, function and quality of life in chronic pelvic pain females.Non-probability convenience sampling technique will be used, subject following eligibility criteria from DHQ Hospital Layyah will be randomly allocated in two groups. Group A participants will be given kegel exercise with myofascial release, Group B participants will be given kegel exercise for 3 weeks. Assessment will be done via, Numeric Pain Rating Scale and pelvic floor impact questionnaire (PFIQ) and functional pelvic pain scale

Myofascial pelvic pain (MFPP) caused by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) is a major contributor to chronic pelvic pain in women.In females,pelvic pain is the single most common indication for referral to women's health services.Pelvic floor physical therapy with myofascial release improve mobility and reduce pain by releasing the painful trigger points.Tools that will be used,for pain numerical pain scale (NPS),functional pelvic pain scale(FPPS) and pelvic floor impact questionnaire-7 will be used to asses pain and functionality.

Often the etiology of chronic pelvic pain is not clear, as there are many disorders of the reproductive tract, gastrointestinal system, urological organs, musculoskeletal system, and psych neurological system that may be associated with chronic pelvic pain. An effective treatment for this condition has evaded the medical profession for centuries. Even today only 20-25% patients respond to conservative management.5 When such treatment fails, a diagnostic laparoscopy is performed.1, 3, 6 the cause of the pain is not always obvious as no pathology is seen in 40-60% of the cases.1
