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, 1984This 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 ...

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.

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
2020Musculoskeletal 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, 1985
The practice and theoretical basis of pain measurement is reviewed and critically examined in the areas of animal research, human subjects laboratory investigation and clinical study. The advantages and limitations of both physiological and behavioral methods are discussed in each area, and subjective report procedures are evaluated in human laboratory

Medical Journal of Australia, 1979
The problems of clinical measurement of pain are considered. Various adjuncts to the standard clinical interview are proposed. These are: written reports, visual analogue scales, McGill's Pain Assessment Questionnaire, and a weekly pain chart. The advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed.

Current Oncology Reports, 2020
Pain is a multi-faceted symptom. Effective pain assessment involves properly defining the pain syndrome, utilizing various assessment tools, and recognizing different conditions which may affect the expression and the management of pain.Pain results from multiple physical and psychosocial etiological interplay.

Treatment of pain first requires an accurate measurement of pain. Though complex and multifactorial, it is based on two overarching concepts: qualifying and quantifying pain. In practicality, this information is obtained from the subjective report of pain by a patient and/or the use additional validated tools for measuring pain.

Pain Measurement in Vulvodynia
Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, 2003Current 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.
