200 participants

Start Date

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Chronic Back Pain

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the correlation between self-reported pain and the measurements obtained using an artificial intelligence-assisted whole-body electrical stimulation device (StimaWELL 120MTRS system) in individuals with chronic back pain. The main question it aims to answer is: Is there any correlation between the pain intensity assessed with StimaWELL 120MTRS system, dolorimeter and self-report in adults with chronic back pain? The patients who have back pain for the duration longer than 3 months and have been eximaned by a medical doctor will be assessed with StimaWELL 120MTRS system, dolorimeter, and will be asked to rate their pain intensity in Numerical Pain Rating Scale.
