Study of Pain Patterns Over Time in Kids
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study follows kids who have a specific type of chronic pain (headaches, stomach pain, or muscle/joint pain) to better understand how pain changes over time. It also checks whether certain factors are linked to those pain patterns.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Have reliable internet access on a phone, tablet, or computer for study surveys
- Speak and read English (study will use English questionnaires)
- A parent or legal guardian must agree to follow the study plan and sign consent
- You do not have a current history of chronic pain that is ongoing (study starts with the right pain history)
- You must have a chronic pain diagnosis that fits one of these types: migraine or daily headache, certain functional abdominal pain, one-area muscle/joint pain, or widespread muscle/joint pain

This study looks at how the brain processes pain sensations in children with certain long-lasting pain conditions. It may help researchers understand what’s happening in the nervous system and guide better treatments.
This study tests how people sense heat and pain, and how the brain and emotions may influence that experience. It is designed for healthy adults and may involve training sessions and (for some parts) MRI scanning.
This study looks at how beliefs, mood, and social factors affect how people express and judge pain. It mainly uses pain/heat testing and—if chosen—brain scans to understand why pain reports can differ between people.
This study looks at measurable “pain signals” (biomarkers) in people with certain headache disorders or lumbar nerve pain, and compares them with healthy people. It may help researchers better understand what drives pain and how it can be detected.
This trial tests a special band-aid that measures chronic pain. Women with chronic pain or healthy women may join to help researchers learn how this device works.
This study is testing a device that measures how your body responds to pain. It may help doctors better understand and treat chronic pain in children.
