Volunteer Recruitment for a Clinical Study on a Product Supporting Musculoskeletal Health

VIỆN HÀN LÂM Y HỌC (Academy of Medical Sciences) is recruiting volunteers to participate in a clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of a product designed to support pain relief and improve symptoms associated with musculoskeletal disorders.

Musculoskeletal disorders are among the most common causes of pain, joint stiffness, reduced mobility, and impaired quality of life. These conditions can affect individuals of various ages, particularly middle-aged and older adults, people engaged in physically demanding work, and those with sedentary lifestyles. Research into supportive approaches for relieving symptoms, improving physical function, and enhancing quality of life plays an important role in advancing community healthcare.

Through clinical assessments, standardized pain scales, functional mobility tests, and objective outcome measurements, the study aims to collect scientific evidence regarding the product's efficacy, safety, and tolerability. VIỆN HÀN LÂM Y HỌC warmly invites interested individuals to participate, contribute to scientific research, and support the development of evidence-based solutions for musculoskeletal health.

1. Research Areas

The study is expected to focus on evaluating the following potential benefits:

  • Musculoskeletal Pain Relief: Assessing changes in pain intensity in commonly affected areas, including the neck, shoulders, back, lower back, and knees.
  • Reduction of Joint Stiffness: Monitoring changes in joint stiffness, discomfort, and mobility difficulties, particularly after periods of rest.
  • Improvement in Joint Mobility: Evaluating changes in joint range of motion and ease of movement during daily activities.
  • Improvement in Musculoskeletal Function: Assessing functional abilities such as walking, standing up, sitting down, bending, and performing activities relevant to the affected joints or muscles.
  • Reduction in Pain-Related Daily Limitations: Monitoring the impact of pain on sleep, work performance, and everyday activities.
  • Improvement in Quality of Life: Evaluating changes in physical functioning, comfort, daily independence, and participants' perceived well-being.

In addition to evaluating potential benefits, the study will assess product safety, tolerability, and any adverse reactions throughout the study period.

Interested volunteers will undergo preliminary screening to determine their eligibility based on their musculoskeletal condition and the study's inclusion and exclusion criteria.
