Official title

Subcutaneous Injection of Botulinum Toxin A for At--Level Back Pain in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Back pain is a common secondary condition of both acute and chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). Current existing treatment including both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic are limited by marginal efficacy or intolerable side effects. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of subcutaneous injections of botulinum toxin A to provide pain relief in spinal cord injury patients with back pain near the level of injury in the spine. Botulinum toxin A has been shown in both pre-clinical and clinical studies to help with nerve pain. The researchers propose a double blinded placebo controlled crossover study to study the effects of subcutaneous botulinum injections to at--level SCI back pain in patients with spinal cord injury.
