Acupuncture for cold-sensitive neck pain
This trial tests whether a specific type of acupuncture (three-needle Dazhui plus electroacupuncture) can reduce pain and improve function in people with neck pain caused by cervical spondylosis, especially when the pain is worse in cold weather. It combines a modern diagnosis with traditional Chinese medicine ideas to see if this approach helps more than standard care.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 3 weeks+ - NCT06477094Recruiting
Comparing two radiofrequency tools for lower back pain
This trial compares two techniques for radiofrequency ablation (a heat treatment) to relieve lower back pain from the small joints of the spine. It is for people whose pain did not improve with physical therapy or medications and who have had successful test injections.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06480175Recruiting
Neck Pain Relief: Radiofrequency Plus Nerve Block
This study tests whether a procedure that uses radiofrequency (a type of heat) plus a nerve block can reduce neck pain from arthritic joints in the spine. It is for people who have not gotten enough relief from other treatments.
CairoAges 30–70 - NCT07590050Recruiting
Catgut Embedding for Lower Back Pain and Blood Stasis
This trial tests catgut embedding (a traditional acupuncture technique using absorbable material) to treat chronic lower back pain caused by spine wear-and-tear, particularly for patients whose condition matches a traditional medicine pattern called 'blood stasis.' The goal is to see if this approach relieves pain and improves movement.
Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–65 - NCT07789288Recruiting
Hard collar use after cervical spine fusion
This study compares recovery outcomes with and without a hard cervical collar after posterior cervical fusion surgery. You may qualify if you have degenerative disk disease and are scheduled for this type of spine surgery.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05238740Recruiting
Compare fusion results after two spine surgeries with added biologics
This study compares two types of spine surgery (ALIF or XLIF) for one spinal level, and tests how well the bones fuse when a specific bone-forming product is used. It also looks at how patients feel and function after surgery.
BernAges 18–70 - NCT06268704RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two types of steroid injections for sacroiliac joint pain
This study compares two types of steroid medication used in injections for sacroiliac joint pain. It aims to see if one type works better than the other, helping patients with low back or buttocks pain find relief.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 18–99 - NCT07712354Recruiting
Acupuncture and magnetic therapy for neck pain that travels to the arm
This study tests if high-frequency electroacupuncture (needles with mild electric current) at specific points on the neck, combined with electromagnetic field therapy, can help relieve pain from cervical spondylotic radiculopathy. It may be an option if you have neck pain that travels to your shoulder or arm and are not using strong painkillers.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 30 years+ - NCT03439228Recruiting
Testing brace use after low back fusion surgery
This pilot study looks at whether wearing a brace helps after single-level low back fusion surgery. You may be offered screening if you’re healing from a specific type of fusion and don’t have certain risk factors.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18–80 - NCT04140344Recruiting
Study texting messages after low back fusion surgery
This study tests whether regular text-message check-ins after lumbar (low back) fusion surgery are helpful for communication and follow-up. It enrolls people who will be getting their first low back fusion and who are comfortable texting and willing to stay in regular contact.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05029726RecruitingPhase 4
Numbing medicine during back surgery to reduce pain
This trial tests a regional anesthesia (numbing medicine given near nerves) during minimally invasive lumbar spine surgery. The goal is to see if it helps control pain around surgery and improves recovery comfort.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–80 - NCT05170815Recruiting
Spine Device Registry for Adults Getting Commercial Devices
This study is a registry that collects information about adults who use specific, commercially available spine devices. It may help doctors understand how these devices are used in real-world care and what outcomes look like over time.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05356286Recruiting
Recording spinal cord stimulation and monitoring during surgery
This study records what happens when doctors use spinal cord monitoring and stimulation during brain or spinal cord surgery. It may help improve how safely these procedures are performed in the future.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05701059Recruiting
Tests different artificial discs for neck nerve and spinal cord problems
This trial compares two types of artificial disc implants used for certain neck problems. It may help people who have tried non-surgical treatments but still have ongoing nerve symptoms or spinal cord issues from a damaged disc in the neck.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT05746143RecruitingPhase 4
Zolpidem during recovery after lower-back fusion surgery
This trial studies whether taking zolpidem around the time of recovery from lower-back (lumbar) fusion surgery affects outcomes. It may help doctors understand how sleep medicine can (or can’t) support recovery in certain people.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06438471RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for nerve pain after spinal cord injury
This trial tests an experimental pill for people with spinal cord injury who have long-term nerve pain. It aims to see if the drug can reduce pain and be safe.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06601634Recruiting
Neck pain improvement after cervical spine surgery
This study looks at what factors help predict better neck pain after a specific type of neck surgery called ACDF. If you have a degenerative neck condition and are scheduled for this surgery, the results could help doctors understand what leads to the best pain relief.
Krakow, Lesser Poland VoivodeshipAges 18–65 - NCT06693453Recruiting
