Testing the Feasibility of Intervening to Optimize Chiropractic Care for Adults With Neck Pain Disorders...

Neck Pain

To assess the feasibility of conducting a larger cluster randomized controlled trial to facilitate the effectiveness of a complex Knowledge Translation (KT) intervention, i.e. implementation of multimodal care, into chiropractic clinical practice, designed to improve the management of patients with Non-Specific Neck Pain (NSNP) disorders. To evaluate feasibility, the investigators will ascertain how well participating chiropractors and patients adhere to the study protocol and will solicit feedback from them about the overall usefulness of the content and format of the KT intervention. This study will determine planning for the main study and also the outcomes to be used as a primary outcome.

Perceptual Distortions in Acute Neck Pain

Neck PainPosterior2 more

Research has shown that chronic pain is related to variety of perceptual distortions. Little is known on how acute pain experience influences perception, especially precision of touch. This project is aiming to test the hypothesis of pain as a process of biological value leading to improvement in tactile acuity.

Yoga Chikitsa for Neck Pain Caused by Cervical Spondylosis

Cervical Spondylosis

Neck Pain caused by Cervical spondylosis (CS) is one of the most common health complaints. Despite its frequency as clinical problem worldwide, there are few evidence-based studies that document efficacy of therapies for neck pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Yoga chikitsa (Yoga therapy) on pain and quality of life (QOL) in CS patients compared to usual care.

Using fMRI to Determine if Cerebral Hemodynamic Responses to Pain Change Following Thoracic Spine...

Neck Pain

Thoracic spine thrust manipulation (TSM) has been shown to be an effective intervention in the management of patients with neck pain. However the mechanisms for pain relief associated with this intervention remain largely unexplained. Recent evidence suggests structures within the brain may have a role in creating responses of pain relief. This study aims to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to determine if there is a change in blood flow to structures within the brain following TSM in patients with neck pain. All patients will undergo fMRI while receiving painful stimuli directed to two separate sites, the cuticle of the index finger and the great toe. Subjects will then receive either TSM or sham-manipulation and then immediately undergo a second fMRI scan receiving the same painful stimuli. The primary outcome of interest is the shift in blood flow within the brain before and after TSM or sham manipulation as measured by Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) technology. This study will be the first to examine this type of response to manual therapy within the brain in patients with neck pain.

The Effect of Manipulation of the Cervical Spine on Pain Biomarkers

Neck PainPosterior

This study evaluates the effect of high-velocity low-amplitude thrust (HVLAT) manipulation to the cervical spine on neuropeptide expression as determined by the plasma concentration of oxytocin, neurotensin, orexin A and cortisol; and Examine the effect of HVLAT manipulation on pain perception in symptomatic females with non-specific mechanical cervical spine pain

Tenaculum Pain Control Study

Cervical PainPelvic Pain

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of an intracervical lidocaine injection versus topical lidocaine gel on the pain experienced by patients undergoing tenaculum application to the cervix during office gynecologic procedures. This study will also evaluate how satisfied women are with the method of pain control used. The researchers hypothesize that: There is less pain perceived by patients undergoing placement of a tenaculum on the cervix when a lidocaine injection is used compared to a topical lidocaine gel. Patients are more satisfied with pain control during the overall experience of undergoing tenaculum placement on the cervix when a lidocaine injection is used compared to a topical lidocaine gel.
