Pain relief study for nerve injury pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests how well two types of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) devices relieve chronic pain caused by a single nerve injury. It looks for people who already have a referral for PNS therapy as part of their usual care and who have gotten at least 50% relief from a diagnostic nerve block.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older with nerve pain in one arm, leg, lower back, or pelvis that has lasted at least 6 months.
- You need to have already been referred for or have an order for a PNS device (like Nalu or SPRINT) before joining this study.
- A nerve block at the painful spot must have reduced your pain by at least half.
- You must be able to read, write, and speak English and complete online surveys.
- You must be willing to avoid certain activities and substances (like alcohol, nicotine, and some pain meds) before testing sessions.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new type of spinal cord stimulation for people with long-term nerve pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if this special stimulation pattern can reduce pain better than standard care.
This study tests whether a small device that sends gentle electrical pulses to nerves in your leg can relieve pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have ongoing nerve pain in your legs from past chemo, this treatment might offer a new way to manage it.
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called pulsed radiofrequency for people with chronic nerve pain after an injury. It uses a device that sends short bursts of energy to the painful area to help reduce pain without surgery.
This study looks at using peripheral neurostimulation to improve the placement of nerve blocks for upper limb surgery. It may help you get better pain control during and after your operation.
This study tests a new wearable device that uses mild electrical pulses to treat chronic pain in the knee, arm, or shoulder. It is for people whose pain started after surgery or injury and who have not found enough relief with standard treatments.
This trial tests whether stimulating two brain networks with implanted electrodes can relieve chronic nerve pain that hasn't responded to other treatments. It is for people with severe pain lasting more than six months.
