NCT01393795
Brief Summary:
The investigators hypothesise that pre-application of Qutenza® patches to the skin may reduce pain at the site of Remodulin® SC infusion (sited 1 to 2 weeks later at the site of Qutenza pre-application), in which case it would greatly improve the quality of life of the patients, and enable many more to continue with this treatment. It may also provide new information to support the use of Qutenza® patches for preventing and reducing pain produced by inflammation.
The present study will explore the efficacy of single applications of Qutenza® (capsaicin 8% patch) in reducing site pain caused by continuous SC infusion of Remodulin®, in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients, as assessed by changes in subjective pain rating score and/or pain and sensory testing.
