Clinical Trials Harsha Shanthanna, MD is currently running
Sensorimotor Training + RTMS
for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
This study will investigate the feasibility of using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and a sensorimotor training task to treat symptoms of pain in patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). rTMS is a non-invasive technique that involves delivering magnetic pulses in rapid succession over the area of the brain that controls movement. The sensorimotor training task involves non-invasive nerve stimulation used to cue a participant to complete motor actions. The purpose of this study is to determine whether recruitment is feasible in this patient population and patients maintain adherence to the intervention. In addition, the investigators want to determine whether rTMS combined with sensorimotor training is an effective intervention to alleviate symptoms of pain in patients with CRPS.

Augmented Reality Training + rTMS
for Chronic Neck Pain
The goal of this research is to investigate whether 2-4 weeks of augmented reality sensorimotor training induces positive changes so as to effect pain relief in patients with chronic neck pain. In addition, this study aims to determine if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) delivered prior to augmented reality sensorimotor training enhances the benefits from the sensorimotor training. This study will also use a battery of questionnaires, functional assessments and electroencephalography markers to identify changes following the sensorimotor training that may be associated with benefits in pain symptoms. Before we embark on a larger study, we plan to investigate the feasibility of our study procedures in a feasibility study involving 40 patients.
