Correlating Heart Rate Variability and Chronic Pain

NCT05283070 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 150

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) has limited data on baseline quality of life measures and objective measures of function, for active serving members with chronic pain. This study aims to collect this data using patient reported outcomes and 2 minute walk test (2MWT) while validating the newly created Elevation Movement Lift Off Test (EMLi) and correlating the data with heart rate variability (HRV) while comparing performance to healthy controls

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Questionnaires, physical tests, and heart rate variability measures

The 2MWT will be conducted in an unobstructed hallway with patients being asked to walk at moderate intensity (brisk walk) for the duration of the activity (2 minutes). The amount of distance in metres will be recorded. The EMLi movement consists of pushing a 2kg weighted ball from the chest level forward, and then raising the ball overhead, before returning it to the starting position (Figure 1). The number of repetitions done at moderate intensity will be recorded after 60 seconds. HRV and questionnaires previously listed
