Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Treatment Cabin 'Elosan cabin' is a closed, electrically insulated cabin for the short-term application of a high electrostatic voltage to the body of patients with chronic pain.

Patients assigned will have 8 sessions in the treatment cabin, with an interval of 6 days between sessions. The existing therapies and painkillers will be continued at the discretion of the doctor.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Included in the study can be all persons suffering from chronic pain as it is often the case with rheumatic disease or traumata. The electric charge is created by a generator which can produce a high electrostatic field. The electrical voltage is delivered to the hands via a metal handle and is spread over the entire body surface. After the short treatment, the patient is completely discharged and earthed again.

Over 100 patients in eight pain centers are to be included into this trial in order to show a statistically significant reduction of pain.

Pain treatment by electrostatic charge to the whole body

Study Type is Observational as participants in the study receive therapeutic interventions in the therapy cabin as part of routine medical care and a researcher studies the effect of the intervention.

The study includes all persons who are already receiving therapy in the mentioned facilities, no external, specifically selected persons, but existing patients suffering from chronic pain who meet the specified conditions.

The therapy aims to alleviate chronic pain by applying an electrostatic charge of 50'000 Volt to the whole body in the special, electrically insulated cabin. The treatment is done upon the instructions of a physician. It is done with the patient standing up in the treatment cabin. The person is charged and discharged several times over the course of 2x 4 minutes. The charge can be felt on the skin and it can be seen through bristling of the hairs on the body. This treatment is repeated once a week.
