Quantifying allodynia in patients suffering from unilateral neuropathic pain using Von Frey monofilaments
Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate whether quantitative sensory testing with Von Frey monofilaments can be used for the quantification of allodynia in patients with chronic neuropathic pain, and how the pain threshold of affected skin differs from healthy skin. Methods: Using Von Frey monofilaments, we aimed to determine the pain threshold in 22 patients suffering from allodyni...

متن کاملQuantitative sensory testing with Von Frey monofilaments in patients with allodynia: what are we quantifying?
The International Association for the Study of Pain defines allodynia as pain due to a stimulus that does not normally provoke pain and hyperalgesia as an increased response to a stimulus, which is normally painful. However, does "normally painful" mean "any stimulation of nociceptors" or "the subjective pain response?" We argue that "normally painful" should not mean "any stimulation of nocice...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Assessment of the clinical relevance of quantitative sensory testing with Von Frey monofilaments in patients with allodynia and neuropathic pain. A pilot study.
BACKGROUND Allodynia is a common and disabling symptom in many patients with neuropathic pain. Whereas quantification of pain mostly depends on subjective pain reports, allodynia can also be measured objectively with quantitative sensory testing. In this pilot study, we investigated the clinical relevance of quantitative sensory testing with Von Frey monofilaments in patients with allodynia as ...
