Pain Paid Clinical Trials in Illinois

The purpose of the chronic pain master protocol is to compare independent pain interventions and establish an overarching structure for the disease-state addenda (DSA) and intervention-specific appendices (ISAs). The ISAs may start independently of other ISAs as interventions become available for clinical testing. Read Less

The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dapansutrile (OLT1177®) tablets in subjects with an acute gout flare. Read Less

The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider. Read Less

This study will examine the impact of virtual reality used in conjunction with sedation compared to sedation alone in patients undergoing watervcooled genicular nerve ablations for chronic knee pain. The goals of the study is to determine the relative efficacy of virtual reality as a distraction modality when used as an adjuvant to procedural sedation compared to sedation alone for procedure related pain. To assess procedural satisfaction, and 1-month pain and functional outcomes.To explore whether virtual reality and lower procedure-related pain scores affect 1-month outcomes. And finally to determine whether demographic and clinical characteristics are associated with outcome measures. Read Less

This study is an open-label study to evaluate the safety of long-term administration of inclacumab in participants with sickle cell disease (SCD). Participants in this study will have completed a prior study of inclacumab. Read Less

This trial is a double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial of adults and children (ages 7 to less than 70 years). Patients who present to the ED and who undergo minor bedside procedures that require local anesthesia will be divided into two groups: The first group will be treated with 0.7 mg/kg intranasal ketamine as well as standard local anesthesia for the procedure (treatment cohort). The second group will be treated with a volume-based dose of intranasal saline solution as well as standard local anesthesia for the procedure (control cohort). The primary aim is to assess whether patients in the treatment cohort report lower pain scores on the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS-100) when compared to patients in the control cohort. For adult patients, a secondary aim is to compare agitation between the two cohorts using the Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS) and, for pediatric patients, a secondary aim is to compare alertness between the two cohorts using the University of Michigan Sedation Scale (UMSS). Results obtained from specific procedures will be analyzed on a spectrum of complexity and general length of recovery time. Scientific achievements may include finding a safe and effective way to reduce pain and discomfort during minor procedures in the Emergency Department. Additionally, it would provide opportunities for more research on sub-dissociative doses of ketamine during minor procedures: a topic in which there is still a gap in the published research Read Less

The findings from this project may result in pain reduction and improved mobility in pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain in their second and third trimester. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to learn about nerve function and pelvic muscle function. To do this we will compare the pelvic nerve and muscle function of women with chronic pelvic pain to those who do not have chronic pelvic pain. Understanding the pain may lead to better treatments in the future. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VX-548 in treating participants with PLSR. Read Less

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Persona Keel cementless and cemented knee. Read Less
