Spinal cord stimulation for injured soldiers with complex regional pain syndrome.
pinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapy enhances pain relief over a long-term period, decreases the need for opioid analgesics, improves quality of life, increases the rate of return to work, and manages pain economically. These benefi ts make SCS therapy a viable treatment option for seriously injured soldiers with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). The United States has recently been faced w...

Frequent simulation and irritation of NMDA receptors by glutamate mediators can lead to burning pain, allodynia and hyperalgesia, even after stopping the irritant factor. Opioid-induced hyperalgesia and peripheral nerve injuries in lower extremities orthopedic surgeries can also make the same symptoms, which sometimes make it difficult to diagnose it from causalgia (type II complex regional...
متن کاملStroke, complex regional pain syndrome and phantom limb pain: can commonalities direct future management?
Despite being different conditions, complex regional pain syndrome type 1, phantom limb pain and stroke share some potentially important similarities. This report examines experimental and clinical findings from each patient population. It identifies common aspects of symptomatic presentation, sensory phenomena and patterns of cortical reorganization. Based on these common findings, we argue th...
متن کاملDysfunctional Relationship Between the Prefrontal Cortex and Amygdala for Explaining Posttraumatic CRPS Syndrome.
After limb trauma, the first short lasting response corresponds to a facilitatory supraspinal influence exerted at the spinal cord with sympathoexcitation. A descending sympathoexcitatory response with analgesia, peripheral vasoconstriction, and facilitated motor reflexes could be an active adaptive response for helping to maintain the capacity to use an injured body part for flight or fight in...
