Using a gentle head device to help with nerve pain from chemo
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a low-intensity cranial PEMF device to see if it can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. Participants use the device at home and receive text messages to track their symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing a wearable device (gloves and boots) that applies gentle compression to your hands and feet during chemotherapy. It aims to prevent or reduce nerve damage (numbness, tingling, pain) that some chemotherapy drugs can cause.
This study tests a gentle brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can reduce nerve pain, numbness, or tingling caused by chemotherapy. If you've finished cancer treatment but still have these symptoms, this may help improve your quality of life.
This trial tests whether a spinal cord stimulator, a small device that sends gentle electrical signals to block pain, can relieve nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have ongoing numbness or burning in your hands or feet after treatment, this study might help you feel better and improve your quality of life.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment to see if it can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. It also looks at how the treatment affects the brain and immune system.
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 whether a new type of spinal cord stimulator (SCS) can reduce pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have lasting nerve pain after cancer treatment and standard pain medications haven't helped, this device might offer relief.
