NCT02020122

Brief Summary

To utilize the plasticity of the central pain pathways in order to (i) shift individuals with a pro-nociceptive pain modulation profile towards an anti-nociceptive one, and (ii) assess its relevance in minimizing pain-derived morbidity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The changes in pain response after administration of duloxetine and pregabalin

    The changes in the excitatory and inhibitory pain modulation responses (assessed by temporal summation and conditioned pain modulation) will be examined before and after the administration of duloxetine and pregabalin in the set of pre and post coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.
