Quantitative sensory testing has become commonplace in clinical neurophysiology units. Measurement of the thermal and vibratory senses provides an estimate on function of sensory small and large fibers, respectively. Being psychophysical parameters, sensory threshold values are not objective, and various test algorithms have been developed aiming at ...

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1994
Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is based on well-developed psychophysical methods that define not only the stimulus (type, characteristics, quantity, presentation, testing format, and environment) but also the response (form and analysis). With the availability of personal computers, transducers, electronic circuitry, and specially written software,

Quantitative Sensory Testing in Pain Management
Pain Management, 2015Quantitative sensory testing (QST), a set of noninvasive methods used to assess sensory and pain perception, has been used for three decades. The precision of the instruments and the uninvasiveness encouraged many QST-based trials. The developments made have benefited multiple disciplines.

Chapter 27 Quantitative sensory testing
2006Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the basic concepts of quantitative sensory testing (QST), the methodological issues involved, and the clinical applications of this testing method. It is believed that the main current applications for QST in the context of pain neurology include support for the neurological diagnostic process, where a need to ...

Technology literature review: Quantitative sensory testing
Muscle & Nerve, 2004AbstractThe development of the personal computer has simplified the process of quantitating sensory thresholds using various testing algorithms. We reviewed the technical aspects and reproducibility of different methods to determine threshold for light touch‐pressure, vibration, thermal, and pain stimuli.

[Quantitative sensory testing].
Schmerz (Berlin, Germany), 2016Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a standardized and formalized set of clinical sensitivity tests based on subjective (psychophysical) methods, which depends on the cooperation of the subject being investigated. Calibrated stimuli are used to measure the perception and pain thresholds, which provide information on the presence of sensory plus or ...

Quantitative sensory testing (QST). English version
Der Schmerz, 2016Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a standardized and formalized clinical sensitivity test. Testing describes a subjective (psychophysical) method that entails a cooperation of the person to be examined. Within its framework, calibrated stimuli are applied to capture perception and pain thresholds, thus providing information on the presence of ...

Quantitative Sensory Testing in Cluster Headache: Increased Sensory Thresholds
Cephalalgia, 2006To determine if recently reported changes in sensory thresholds during migraine attacks can also be seen in cluster headache (CH), we performed quantitative sensory testing (QST) in 10 healthy subjects and in 16 patients with CH. Eight of the patients had an episodic CH and the other eight a chronic CH.

Quantitative sensory testing cannot differentiate simulated sensory loss from sensory neuropathy
Neurology, 2003To differentiate the quantitative sensory testing (QST) results of subjects simulating small and large fiber sensory loss from those of normal subjects and subjects with sensory peripheral neuropathy.QST is used to measure sensory thresholds in clinical, epidemiologic, and research studies.

Quantitative sensory testing of pain responsiveness
2013Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a powerful tool to assess pain responsiveness in healthy individuals and patients with orofacial pain conditions and thereby gain insight into the function of the nociceptive system and potential pain mechanisms.
