Official title
A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Karuna Virtual Reality Program for the Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Chronic low back pain is highly prevalent in US adults and is a major cause of missed work days and disability. While several treatment options exist, chronic opioids are commonly used for these conditions even though there are limited data supporting efficacy, and clear evidence of harm associated with chronic opioid administration. Virtual reality has been proposed as a treatment option that may lead to decreased pain and improved physical functioning, while avoiding the harms associated with medication management. This study is intended to obtain preliminary safety and efficacy data to guide the design of a larger clinical trial.
