U.S., Sept. 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07165353) titled 'Virtual Walking to Reduce Chronic Neuropathic Pain in Subjects With SCI' on Sept. 03.
Brief Summary: About 70% of people with a spinal cord injury in Switzerland have chronic pain that lasts more than 3 to 6 months. This pain can be caused by muscle or joint problems, or by nerve damage (neuropathic pain). Neuropathic pain is often hard to treat, and current treatments may cause side effects or not work well.
This study will test whether virtual walking from different visual perspectives can reduce chronic neuropathic pain and improve quality of life after spinal cord injury. We will also compare which perspective works best.
