简要总结
This study aims to assess the efficacy of Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (PrTMS) therapy to reduce chronic neck for military health system beneficiaries.
详细描述
The objective of our proposed research is to (a) assess the efficacy of PrTMS therapy in reducing pain for military health system beneficiaries with chronic neck pain receiving standard of care* at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, and (b) to describe participants' perceptions of PrTMS treatment and its perceived effect on their pain.
The specific aims for this study are as follows:

结局指标
主要结局
Defense & Veterans Pain Rating Scale (DVPRS)
时间窗: Measured to compare changes from Baseline; during Phase 1 and 2 of treatment; and during the follow up phase after treatment ends up to 8 weeks. Measurements taken everyday during Baseline, Phase 1 and Phase 2 and at 2, 4, and 8 weeks in Follow-Up
The DVPRS was developed to standardize pain measurement across all health care settings and promote pain assessment and reassessment practices. DVPRS is a visual pain scale to assess individual's pain intensity on a scale of 0-10, with an additional 4 questions to assess pain's interference with the participant's activity, sleep, mood, and stress. The scale has excellent internal reliability and test-retest reliability.
