Sensory system examination is a very important part of clinical neurology. Quantitative sensory studies using automated systems to evaluate the sensory function are useful in clinical and experimental studies of peripheral neuropathies. This chapter discusses the sensory receptors, sensory examination, and a quantitative system designed to deliver ...

Quantitative sensory testing of intraoral open wounds
International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2013Wound healing is an important aspect of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Positive sensory signs (allodynia, hyperalgesia) and negative sensory signs (hypoesthesia, hypoalgesia) may be encountered. Quantitative sensory testing (QST) has moved from bench to bedside for the detection, therapy selection and monitoring the recovery of individuals with ...

[Applications of 'quantitative sensory testing'].
Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde, 2013Quantitative sensory testing (QST) consists of several non-invasive, standardised tests aimed at examining different aspects of the entire somatosensory nervous system. Important advantages of QST over existing supplementary tests such as electromyography are the ability to test the function of thin and unmyelinated nerve fibres as well as the ...

Quantitative Sensory Testing – From bench to bedside
The methodology of Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) comprises standardized testing procedures, which provide information of the integrity of the somatosensory nervous system. Over the years, different protocols have been established, which utilize similar but distinct testing procedures. They pursue the same overall objective to identify loss or gainSam, Hughes +3 more
