Heartbeat-enhanced immersive virtual reality to treat complex regional pain syndrome

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roberta Ronchi, Marco Solcà, Javier Bello Ruiz, Thomas Schmidlin

OBJECTIVES: To develop and test a new immersive digital technology for complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) that combines principles from mirror therapy and immersive virtual reality and the latest research from multisensory body processing. METHODS: In t ...

Pain reduction due to novel sensory-motor training in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome I – A pilot study

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Anne-Christine Schmid

Background and aims Patients suffering from Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) of the upper limb show a changed cortical representation of the affected hand. The lip area invades the former hand area contralateral to the affected hand. This change in co ...

Virtual reality improves embodiment and neuropathic pain caused by spinal cord injury

Olaf Blanke, Roberta Ronchi, Marco Solcà, Estelle Palluel, Polona Pozeg

Objective: To investigate changes in body ownership and chronic neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) using multisensory own body illusions and virtual reality (VR). Methods: Twenty patients with SCI with paraplegia and 20 healthy cont ...

Active pain coping is associated with the response in real-time fMRI neurofeedback during pain

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Kirsten Emmert

Real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rt-fMRI) neurofeedback is used as a tool to gain voluntary control of activity in various brain regions. Little emphasis has been put on the influence of cognitive and personality traits on neurofeedback eff ...

Quantifying dimensions of physical behavior in chronic pain conditions

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu

Background: Chronic pain, defined as persistent or recurrent pain lasting longer than 3 months, is a frequent condition affecting an important percent of population worldwide. Pain chronicity can be caused by many different factors and is a frequent compon ...

The effect of manual lymphatic drainage on swelling and its consequences following total knee arthroplasty: a randomized controlles trial

Kamiar Aminian, Guillaume Christe

Objective: To evaluate the effects of manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) on knee swelling and the assumed consequences of swelling after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Primary care hospital. Participants: Two grou ...

Multi-segment analysis of spinal kinematics during sit-to-stand in patients with chronic low back pain

Julien Favre, Thomas Legrand, Guillaume Christe

While alterations in spinal kinematics have been frequently reported in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP), a better characterization of the kinematics during functional activities is needed to improve our understanding and therapeutic solutions fo ...

Reduction of Neuropathic and Inflammatory Pain through Inhibition of the Tetrahydrobiopterin Pathway

Kai Johnsson, Rudolf Hovius, Katarzyna Irena Gorska, Giulia Miracca

Human genetic studies have revealed an association between GTP cyclohydrolase 1 polymorphisms, which decrease tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) levels, and reduced pain in patients. We now show that excessive BH4 is produced in mice by both axotom- ized sensory ne ...

Elsevier2015

Assessment of physical activity of patients with chronic pain

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Isaac Taylor

Objectives To define the key terms and concepts relating physical activity to chronic pain; to provide a brief overview of the various methods of assessment of physical activity; to review the current literature about physical activity and chronic pain; an ...
