Pain Intensity Estimation from Mobile Video Using 2D and 3D Facial Keypoints [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Managing post-surgical pain is critical for successful surgical outcomes. One of the challenges of pain management is accurately assessing the pain level of patients. Self-reported numeric pain ratings are limited because they are subjective, can be affected by mood, and can influence the patient's perception of pain when making comparisons.

Stress-induced hyperalgesia instead of analgesia in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Many individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) show impairments in their pain-modulatory capacity. Although stress plays an important role in chronic pain, it is not known if stress-induced analgesia (SIA) is affected in patients with CMP. We investigated SIA in 22 patients with CMP and 18 pain-free participants.
