MEASUREMENT OF PAIN

Lancet, The, 1974
Abstract Of the various methods for measuring pain the visual analogue scale seems to be the most sensitive. For assessing response to treatment a pain-relief scale has advantages over a pain scale. Pain cannot be said to have been relieved unless pain or pain relief has been directly measured.

MEASUREMENT OF PAIN

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1992
Pain is a personal, subjective experience influenced by cultural learning, the meaning of the situation, attention, and other psychologic variables. Approaches to the measurement of pain include verbal and numeric self-rating scales, behavioral observation scales, and physiologic responses.

The Measurement of Pain

Clinical Oncology, 2011
Pain has been studied in depth for decades, yet the pain associated with cancer is still frequently under treated. The measurement of pain in patients with terminal cancer is imperative, because failure to carry it out is recognised as an important reason for inadequate treatment. Although pain is characterised as a symptom, it is a subjective personal

Pain measurement and pain behavior

Pain, 1984
This study examined relationships between chronic pain patients' ratings of pain severity, and other patient ratings about severity of associated impairment, and a series of behavioral measures of health care utilization and activity patterns. Prior to being evaluated, a sample of 150 chronic pain patients completed diary forms on which they recorded ...

Reproducibility of pain measurement and pain perception

Pain, 2002
The reproducibility of both the conscious experience of pain and the reproducibility of psychophysical assessments of pain remain critical, yet poorly characterized factors in pain research and treatment. To assess the reproducibility of both the pain experience and two methods of pain assessment, 15 subjects evaluated experimental heat pain during ...

Pain Measurement in Vulvodynia

Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, 2003
Current approaches to the conceptualization of vulvodynia focus either on issues of sexuality or underlying pathophysiology but tend to neglect the central symptom of pain. An adequate understanding of this condition will not be achieved, however, without examining all three factors and how they interact.

Pain measurement

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 1999
Increasing evidence from laboratory methods in humans and animals indicates that pain arises from, and is modulated by, a number of mechanisms. In addition, these mechanisms are not static but change as pain persists. Recent human studies have demonstrated new aspects of pain processing at all levels of the central nervous system.

Pain and Activity Measurements

2020
Musculoskeletal pain contributes significantly to chronic pain experienced by adults and to health care use. This chapter details several methods to evaluate pain and physical activity in mice that can be applied to preclinical orthopedic models. These methods include the von Frey filament assay that measures mechanical allodynia, open-field activity ...

Pain measurement in humans

The Surgeon, 2004
Sound measurement, an essential component of any scientific discipline, remains a particular problem in pain research. The measurement of pain intensity, for example, is a difficult and often a subjective undertaking. This is of little surprise to clinicians and researchers, because it is well recognised that pain intensity, like other sensations and ...

Measuring orofacial pain

Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Tandheelkunde, 2016
Pain is a complex neuro-physiological phenomenon affecting mind and behaviour, and is in turn also affected by psyche and behaviour. Differences among individuals in modulation, interpretation and expression complicate the comparison of pain between patients. Pain is a subjective experience and can be expressed by the patient in many different ways. In
