Pain Studies We often conduct studies that test the effectiveness of investigational and well-known medications on chronic pain disorders. While acute pain is a normal sensation triggered in the nervous system to alert you to possible injury and the need to take care of yourself, chronic pain is different. Chronic pain persists. Pain signals keep firing in the nervous system for weeks, months, even years. (Source: NIH Pain Information Page) There are many potential causes that could lead to chronic pain, such as an initial back sprain, serious infection or ongoing causes unrelated to any past injury, such as arthritis, cancer, or fibromyalgia. At Capital Clinical Research Associates we are committed to the research necessary to determine the causes and effective medication for chronic pain. Studies generally last about six months with the possibility of continuing treatment afterwards. Participants receive, free of charge, a thorough physical evaluation, all study medications, and regular follow up visits. For more information about our studies on chronic pain,
