Study Overview

Brief Summary

The objective of this prospective, observational study is to determine the association between the composition of the gut microbiota and the severity and persistence of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome symptoms (Study A). The objective of Study B, a longitudinal study of microbiota biomarkers of patients with newly diagnosed CRPS is to determine if the researchers can predict which patients are more likely to recover compared to those who do not. A secondary objective of both studies is to examine cognitive flexibility in relation to outcomes (study A and B).

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Number of participants with taxonomic and metabolomic differences of the gut microbiome in relation to CRPS severity score

Time Frame: 1 visit - up to one month

Study A

Number of participants with taxonomic and metabolomic differences of the gut microbiome in relation to recovery from CRPS

Time Frame: 12 months

Study B

Secondary Outcomes

  • Logistic regression analysis for testing the association of CRPS severity score to weight in kilograms and height in meters aggregated to BMI (kilograms/meters squared)(12 months)
  • Logistic regression analysis for testing the association of CRPS severity score to use of opioid analgesics(12 months)
  • Score results of the Stroop Color Word Test in relation to CRPS recovery(12 months)
