Ultrasound for Peripheral Nerve Modulation
Sponsor: Stanford University
Summary
This study evaluates an ultrasound device designed to reduce pain by targeting peripheral nerves without surgery or medication. The device is placed on the skin over the area of pain and delivers controlled ultrasound stimulation. Adults with nerve-related pain will participate in a single study visit that includes stimulation sessions and pain assessments. The goal of this study is to determine whether non-invasive ultrasound can safely and effectively reduce pain and to assess whether this approach is practical for future clinical use.

Conditions
Interventions
Ultrasound
Non-invasive focused ultrasound stimulation is applied to a target peripheral nerve.
Sham (No Treatment)
Sham stimulation replicates all procedural aspects of active ultrasound neuromodulation, including device placement and operation, without delivery of therapeutic acoustic energy. This condition serves as a control to account for placebo and procedural effects.
