1. Resting State Connectivity in Adolescents with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome and Chronic Pain

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purposes of this study are to compare the functional connectivity in adolescent patients with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) both with and without chronic pain, to those with chronic pain alone, to that of healthy controls; to evaluate whether there is a change in functional connectivity following participation in an intensive rehabilitation-oriented program previously demonstrated to have excellent outcomes with regard to functional recovery and symptom control; and to correlate outcomes using standardized symptom and function rating scales to imaging findings.

2. Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Treatment Outcomes for Chronic Noncancer Pain

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of the study is to learn more about adolescent and young adults' experience with chronic pain. In particular, we are studying factors which lead to pain-associated disability and factors which predict decreased disability during and after participation in a three-week intensive treatment program. In addition to gathering information from the young people with chronic pain, parents are also asked to give their perspective.

    

3. Evaluating Patterns of and Changes in Hair Cortisol Levels in Pediatric Patients With Chronic Pain

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate patterns of and changes in secretion levels of the stress hormone, cortisol and other steroid hormones (i.e. DHEA, testosterone, progesterone) from hair samples of 150 pediatric patients with chronic pain and a parent or caregiver upon admission and at 3 and 6 months after participation in Mayo Clinic’s intensive, interdisciplinary pediatric pain treatment program.
