Pain Relief Study Using Freezing Nerve Treatment
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study watches how well a freezing procedure works for chronic pain over 6 to 12 months. Your doctor thinks this procedure could help your pain, and the study simply tracks your recovery through questionnaires to help doctors understand if it works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chronic pain (lasting at least 3–6 months) in one specific area of your body that the doctor thinks can be treated with cryoneurolysis
- Your doctor has already planned this freezing procedure as part of your regular care
- You can sign a consent form showing you understand the study
- You are willing and able to fill out questionnaires at the start and after your procedure
- You do not have an active infection or other medical reason that would make the procedure unsafe for you
- Your doctor believes you will likely live longer than 12 months

This study tests a new way to treat chronic pain by freezing specific nerves under imaging guidance. The goal is to see if this reduces pain and improves quality of life.
This trial tests if freezing certain nerves in the upper arm (cryoneurolysis) works as well as standard care for reducing shoulder pain and muscle tightness after a stroke or brain injury. It aims to improve function and ease caregiving tasks.
This trial tests whether a procedure called cryoneurolysis can reduce pain in people recovering from certain recent brain or nerve injuries (like stroke or traumatic brain injury). It may be helpful if you have either hemiplegic shoulder pain or knee pain from osteoarthritis while you’re in inpatient rehab.
This study compares two procedures to treat long-term low back pain from the small joints in your spine. One uses extreme cold, the other uses heat to stop pain signals. It may help if you have had at least three months of back pain and other treatments haven't worked.
This trial studies an MRI-guided procedure that “freezes” targeted nerves or joints to reduce pain in the head, neck, or spine. It may help if your pain comes from a joint problem or a compressed/damaged nerve and you can safely have MRI scans before and after the treatment.
This study is testing a treatment called a cryo nerve block to reduce pain after amputation, including phantom limb pain. It will look at whether freezing the nerve during surgery helps people feel less pain and use less pain medicine.
