简要总结
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) / Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic neurological disorder that affects the extremities and is characterized by disabling pain, swelling, vasomotor instability, sudomotor abnormality, and impaired motor function; the duration and clinical magnitude is greater than expected, being divided into three stages of progression over time: Stage I: acute (0-3 months); Stage II: dystrophic (3-9 months); Stage 3: atrophic (9-18 months).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect on complex pain syndrome using a conventional care protocol plus the application of non-invasive neuromodulation during compared to the effect of the same protocol plus placebo.
详细描述
The design of this study is a randomised, triple blind clinical trial with placebo control.
The size of the sample will be 42 participants who come to referral hospitals. They will be randomized in two groups: control or experimental.
The variables of the study will be collected at three time points: before the intervention, during the intervention and at the end of the intervention.
The variables of the study will be collected at two time points: before the intervention and at the end of the intervention.
The statistical analysis will be an intention-to-treat analysis. For the main outcomes variables a two factor ANOVA will-be performed (intervention-time) with a post-hoc analysis with kruskal wallis correction correction. Statistical significance will be defined as p <0.05

结局指标
主要结局
Quick Dash Test
时间窗: Up to 6 month
The Quick DASH Upper Extremity Rating Scale for Upper Extremity can be completed by the patient in aid of the orthopedic surgeon. It consists of 11 items that assess the presence of symptoms and the functional capacity of the individual surveyed during the last week. A total of 11 questions must be answered for the questionnaire to calculate the functional situation accurately
Pain ( VAS)
时间窗: Up to 6 month
The instrument will be used to measure the change of pain before and after the intervention will be the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Participants will be asked to mark the level of their pain on a 100 mm, no hatched VAS scale marked at one end as "no pain" and at the other as "worst pain imaginable".
次要结局
- Muscle balance(Up to 6 month)
- Sleep quality(Up to 6 month)
