About this study

Official title: Measuring Pain Perception to the Same Stimulus in Different Patients Using Electroencephalography and Numerical Rate Scale

Observational study at CDI Cleveland Dental Institute. Investigators will assess the pain perception in one group of patients using two non-invasive methods. First, a numerical rate scale (NRS) and second, a brain wave EEG.

Read the detailed description

To generate the nociceptive stimulus, The investigators will apply cold (Endo-Ice) to a healthy upper incisor tooth #8. Inclusion criteria: Patients between 20 and 60 years old, with healthy teeth, no history of dental alveolar trauma, and no pulp chamber calcification. After the nociceptive stimulus, patients will write their pain perception on paper from 0 to 10, and at the same time, we will record the brain activity with a non-invasive EEG Emotiv. Then, we will correlate both methods.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EEG EMOTIVDevice

    Also called Noninvasive Electroencephalography, Endo-Ice

    The teeth will be dried with 2x2 gauze; then, Endo Ice will be applied. The patient response will be written on a sheet numbering to choose from 0 to 10, and at the same time, the brain waves will be recorded through EEG.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain Perception Measurement by EEG.

    to observe the brain waves changes during pain perception

    Measured: January 2024-December 2024

  2. Pain Perception Measurement by EEG and NRS.

    To establish a possible correlation between the NRS and EEG measurements.

    Measured: January 2024-December 2024

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ulises Carballosa, Resident (7866901609, u.carballosa@cdiohio.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain Perception Measurement by EEG. (time frame: January 2024-December 2024). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06510244, which also lists 7 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
