This study checks whether using a pain-activity monitor during robot-assisted colorectal surgery can help the surgical team choose the right pain medicine. It may improve comfort and reduce the chance of giving too much or too little pain medicine.
AabenraaAges 18–80 - NCT06367777Recruiting
Neck and back nerve stimulation for pain processing
This trial studies how electrical stimulation of nerves in the neck and upper back affects the way your body processes pain. It aims to help understand pain better, which could lead to new treatments.
BrusselsAges 18–40 - NCT06763653Recruiting
Low-frequency device for chronic low back pain
This trial tests a new device that uses very low-frequency electrical pulses to treat chronic low back pain. It is for people whose pain hasn't improved with other treatments and who are not candidates for stronger therapies.
Norwood, South AustraliaAges 22 years+ - NCT06777589Recruiting
Monitoring sedation depth during lower GI endoscopy
This study tests a new way to monitor how deeply sedated you are during a colonoscopy or similar procedure. It uses a special consciousness index to help the doctor give you just the right amount of sedation.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–60 - NCT06342570Recruiting
EEG changes during pain for laparoscopic surgery patients
This study measures brain wave changes in response to pain during laparoscopic surgery. It aims to improve how pain is monitored under anesthesia.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06285162Recruiting
Nerve health monitor during ICU dialysis
This trial uses a special monitor (called ANI) to check how well your nervous system is working while you are on continuous kidney dialysis in the ICU. It may help doctors better understand your body's response to fluid removal.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT05122078Recruiting
Test pain treatment guided by a heart-based index after bowel surgery
This trial studies whether using a monitor-based pain number (called the ANI) to guide pain medicine can improve bowel function after laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer. It may help reduce constipation or slow gut recovery by matching pain treatment to your body’s signals.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07588165Recruiting
Measuring Pain During Emergency Breathing Tube Placement
This study tests a pain-monitoring device during emergency anesthesia for stomach or abdominal surgery. Researchers want to see how well the device (called ANI) detects pain when doctors quickly put a breathing tube in your airway.
MonacoAges 18 years+ - NCT07253012Recruiting
AI pain relief assistant for surgery patients
This trial tests a computer system that helps manage pain during surgery. It may be an option if you are having a planned surgery lasting between 2 and 4 hours.
SantiagoAges Any age - NCT06104059Recruiting
Pain management during planned laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a new way to monitor pain during laparoscopic surgery. It may help your doctor adjust pain medicines to keep you comfortable.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–70 - NCT07620002Recruiting
Monitoring Pain Levels During Arm Surgery With Nerve Block
This study tests a device that measures pain levels during upper arm surgery when patients receive a nerve block (numbing medicine injected near the nerve). The goal is to understand if this monitoring tool helps doctors give the right amount of anesthesia so patients stay comfortable.
HaifaAges 18 years+ - NCT06171659Recruiting
PET/MRI scan to find pain sources after joint surgery
This study uses a special type of scan called PET/MRI to look for areas in the body that may be causing ongoing pain after joint replacement or arthroscopy. It aims to better understand why some people have pain that lasts months after surgery.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18–85 - NCT05473429Recruiting
Study how pain works in people with intellectual disability
This study measures how you feel pain (nociception) and compares patterns in people with intellectual disability and healthy volunteers. It may help researchers better understand pain differences and improve future pain care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–30 - NCT05847465Recruiting
Testing body heat regulation after heat stroke in soldiers
This study looks at how well the body controls temperature during exercise after a past heat-stroke episode, in a military setting. It may help improve safety and recovery plans for people who have had exercise-related heat stroke.
Brétigny-sur-OrgeAges 18 years+ - NCT06044584Recruiting
AI tool for tracking pain after injury or nerve pain
This study tests a smartphone-based tool that uses artificial intelligence to track your pain and how it affects your daily life. It may help you and your doctor better understand your pain over time.
Pietra Ligure, SavonaAges 18–80 - NCT06205355Recruiting
