Slow Opioid Tapering Pilot Study
Eau Claire, WI
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether or not a slow and gradual reduction in the amount of opioid medications will affect patients who take a stable dose of these medications for chronic pain. Opioids are powerful painkillers, and include medications such as hydrocodone (eg Vicodin or Norco), oxycodone, hydromorphone (Dilaudid), Fentanyl, tramadol (Ultram), and morphine. Although these medications are important in treating pain related to an injury or after surgery, long-term use of these medications can result in potentially dangerous outcomes. There is some research to suggest that long-term use of these medications for chronic ...

Double Arm Pivotal Study to Evaluate the Neurolyser XR for the Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain
Jacksonville, FL
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Neurolyser XR as a non-invasive treatment of axial chronic low back pain; to investigate the effectiveness of HIFU, using the Neurolyser XR, in a rigorous randomized double-blind sham-controlled fashion. This study will allow the evaluation of a portable, non-invasive and simple to use HIFU method guided by a routine fluoroscopy.

Resting State Connectivity in Adolescents with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome and Chronic Pain
Rochester, MN
The purposes of this study are to compare the functional connectivity in adolescent patients with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) both with and without chronic pain, to those with chronic pain alone, to that of healthy controls; to evaluate whether there is a change in functional connectivity following participation in an intensive rehabilitation-oriented program previously demonstrated to have excellent outcomes with regard to functional recovery and symptom control; and to correlate outcomes using standardized symptom and function rating scales to imaging findings.
