Chronic Pain Hindering Your Lifestyle?

Consider participating in chronic pain clinical trials.

Chronic pain is persistent pain that lasts beyond the typical time it takes for an injury or illness to heal. It usually persists for at least three to six months or longer. Unlike acute pain, which serves as a warning signal to the body of possible injury or damage, chronic pain often persists even after the initial injury or illness has healed.

We’re conducting chronic pain clinical trials to evaluate mobile application data on patient experience with spinal cord stimulation therapy.

*Participation in the Clinical Trial is completely free of cost and is your choice.

*To participate, fill out the form, and someone from our research staff will call you to determine your eligibility for the Clinical Research Study.

About Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Our site in Oklahoma City will host a chronic pain study. Participants will be individuals suffering from chronic pain. All study-related care, including investigational medication and diagnostic tests, will be free to participants.

Volunteers who meet these criteria may need to visit the site to undergo screening and enroll in the study. Participants or their legal guardians must sign an Informed Consent form during the screening process. This process involves the study doctor providing detailed explanations of all study requirements and the duration of participation. For participants under the age of 18, it is essential that parents or guardians fully comprehend the study requirements and treatment. They are encouraged to address any queries they have with the study doctor before signing the Informed Consent form.

*The study doctor will take you through every step of the Clinical Trial before you decide to participate and will answer any questions you have about the study treatment.

Chronic pain study: What to Expect?

A research team member will contact volunteers who meet the qualifications for the chronic pain clinical trial via phone. They will be invited to the site to undergo further screening if deemed eligible. The research staff will inquire about your medical history and current health status during this process. Rest assured, all personal information shared will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed to any external parties in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Should you choose to participate in the research study, the study team, comprised of doctors and nurses, will thoroughly explain the potential risks and benefits of the study. We encourage all interested volunteers to ask any questions they may have. You should sign the Informed Consent Form only after receiving satisfactory answers. If you opt to participate, you will be expected to attend all scheduled study visits and remain available for any additional unscheduled visits recommended by your study doctor.
