Testing a new device for knee, arm, or shoulder pain
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have had chronic pain in your knee, arm, or shoulder for at least 60 days, with a pain level of at least 5 out of 10.
- Your pain started after surgery or injury, or is due to a pinched or damaged nerve.
- You have been on the same pain medications for at least 30 days without changes.
- You do not have any other active implanted medical devices like a pacemaker or spinal cord stimulator.
- You are not currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
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 trial tests if spinal cord stimulation (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to your spinal cord) can help relieve long-lasting nerve pain in your arm or leg that hasn't gotten better with other treatments. It's for people who have had this pain for at least 6 months and are willing to try a new approach.
This Phase 2 study looks at how spinal cord (or nerve-root) stimulation affects pain signals in the brain and body. You may qualify if you already have a stimulator set to a comfort mode that avoids “tingling” sensations.
This trial studies whether changing the “stimulation pattern” of spinal cord stimulation can reduce long-lasting pain and improve daily function. You might be a good candidate if you have chronic trunk or leg pain and have already tried multiple pain treatments without enough relief.
This trial tests whether spinal cord stimulation (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to your spine) can help people with severe nerve pain in their neck, back, or limbs who haven't found relief from other treatments. You must already be scheduled to get a specific type of spinal cord stimulator for this study.
