Test-retest reliability of pressure pain threshold and heat pain threshold as test stimuli for evaluation of conditioned pain modulation

Neurophysiologie Clinique, 2021
There is growing interest in conditioned pain modulation (CPM) protocols for evaluating the function of the descending pain-modulatory system in clinical settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate test-retest reliability of a CPM protocol with contact heat as a conditioning stimulus (CS) and two test stimuli (pressure pain threshold (PPT) and heat

Tactile threshold and pressure pain threshold during treatment of orofacial pain: an explorative study

Clinical Oral Investigations, 2001
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pressure pain threshold (PPT), tactile threshold (TT) and pain intensity as measured on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in patients with pain in the orofacial region. Twenty-six patients with myogenous pain (7 ss), myogenous and capsular pain (11 ss) or neuropathic pain (8 ss) participated in the study. At

Opioid Modulation of Pain Threshold in Fish

Doklady Biological Sciences, 2000
Pain is a signal and defense response developed in the course of evolution as an adaptation increasing individuals' survival in their environment. Pain sensation allows an individual to identify the irritators that may injure its body and threaten its life.

Assessment of pain threshold in haemophilic patients

Haemophilia, 2013
SummaryMany patients with haemophilia (PWH) live with persistent end‐stage arthritis, as a result of multiple joint haemarthrosis, and experience daily pain. For these people, pain becomes a central aspect of life. The aim of this study was to use mechanical pain thresholds (MPT) to characterize pain perception in different PWH groups.

THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF PAIN THRESHOLD MEASURMENTS

Rheumatology, 1982
Pain is an experience common to us all. There are various methods of attempting to measure pain in an individual. Pain threshold would appear to be the most useful of these as it is atraumatic and repeatable over long periods in healthy individuals. Various factors affect pain threshold such as anxiety.

Aesthetic value of paintings affects pain thresholds

Consciousness and Cognition, 2008
Pain is modulated by cognitive factors, including attention and emotions. In this study we evaluated the distractive effect of aesthetic appreciation on subjectively rated pain (visual analogue scale;VAS) and multi-channel evoked potentials induced by CO(2) laser stimulation of the left hand in twelve healthy volunteers.

Effects of Nondirective Suggestions on Pain Tolerance, Pain Threshold and Pain Intensity Perception

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1997
In this experiment, we followed the issue whether nondirective suggestions have an effect on pain threshold, pain tolerance, and perception of pain intensity. 48 healthy subjects consented to take part. At intake into the study (t1), pain threshold and pain tolerance were assessed in all subjects using a pressure algometer.

Pain threshold of normal human anterior teeth

Archives of Oral Biology, 1963
Abstract Pulp-testing would be a more dependable diagnostic method if pain threshold values could be established for normal teeth. For this purpose measurement in arbitrary units or in volts was considered unsatisfactory because resistance variations would cause corresponding changes in the current. A current-reading instrument was therefore used and

The Effect of Thiabendazole on Pain Threshold

Acta Pharmacologica et Toxicologica, 1985
Abstract:Thiabendazole significantly increased the reaction time to thermal stimulus. However, in mice treated with morphine, the reaction time was not in any way different from those treated with combined doses of thiabendazole and morphine. Thiabendazole was found to have an antinociceptive action. The protective dose for 50% of animal (ED50) against

Prediction of Postoperative Pain From Electrical Pain Thresholds After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

The Clinical Journal of Pain, 2017
Objective: Early postoperative pain correlates to persisting pain, psychosocial distress, and delayed mobilization with thromboembolic and infectious complications. Electrical pain thresholds (EPT) have shown promising results in being able to predict postoperative pain, but the results are conflicting.
