    New Research Shows Younger and Middle-Aged Adults Have Worse Long COVID Symptoms Than Older Adults
    Northwestern Medicine

    Since older adults have been more severely affected by acute COVID-19, researchers have hypothesized that older adults may have worse long COVID symptoms as well. But according to new research published in the Annals of Neurology, an official journal of the American Neurological Association, Northwestern Medicine researchers found on an average of 10 months after COVID-19 onset, younger (ages 18-44) and middle-aged (ages 45-64) adults had worse neurologic symptoms of long COVID than adults 65 and older. Symptoms included headache, numbness and tingling, problems with smell and taste, blurred vision, depression, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue and a decrease in cognitive function. These symptoms occurred regardless of if the patient had mild or severe COVID-19 infections.

    Minimally Invasive Procedure Offers at Least 12 Months of Pain Relief for Patients with Lower Back Pain
    American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA)

    Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis, a common cause of lower back pain in older adults, may benefit from minimally invasive lumbar decompression. Patients receiving the procedure reported significant reductions in pain, along with better physical function and no decrease in mobility or quality of life. The investigators’ abstract received a Resident/Fellow Travel award from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA Pain Medicine) and will be presented at the upcoming 23rd Annual Pain Medicine Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.

    Want Patients to Use Mobile Health Apps? Make Sure Clinicians Sign Them Up During In-Person Visits
    American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA)

    Mobile health applications can be powerful tools for tracking patients’ health and reducing hospital visits. However, patients are more likely to sign up for these apps if a clinician or research assistant enrolls them during an in-person visit. This is just one aspect of a broader research project evaluating mobile health apps in relation to spine injection outcomes. The investigators’ abstract received Best of Meeting and Resident/Fellow Travel awards from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA Pain Medicine) and will be presented at the upcoming 23rd Annual Pain Medicine Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.

    Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation May Impact Pain Processing, But Not Intensity
    American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA)

    Veterans with fibromyalgia experienced significant improvements in pain, sleep, mood, and overall health in a study looking at a procedure called cranial electrotherapy stimulation. The study found an association between the procedure and specific brain activity that could support management of chronic pain without drugs. The investigators’ abstract received a Best of Meeting award from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA Pain Medicine) and will be presented at the upcoming 23rd Annual Pain Medicine Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.
