Complex Regional Pain Syndromes (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and Causalgia) and Spinal Cord Stimulation
ABSTRACT The complex regional pain syndromes (CRPS I and CRPS II), also known as reflex sympatheticThe complex regional pain syndromes (CRPS I and CRPS II), also known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy and causalgia, have been recognized for the past 2,500 years and believed in for the past 150, but they have yet to be understood. These syndromes can be characterized by discrete sensory, motor, a...

The management of CRPS can be approached using objective criteria in a logical and systematic fashion. Frustration during treatment is common because: (1) the pathophysiology of CRPS is incompletely understood, (2) there is significant variation in presentation due to disparate premorbid anatomy and physiology, and (3) the natural history may be affected by incomplete treatment. Therapeutic eff...

متن کاملExperimental pressure pain in patients with complex regional pain syndrome, Type I (reflex sympathetic dystrophy).
Research in animals shows that the levels of neuropathic pain expression is genetically associated with a characteristic response profile to sensory stimuli. The aim of the present investigation was to examine if pressure algometry can identify a specific pain sensitivity profile in patients with complex regional pain syndrome, Type I (reflex sympathetic dystrophy), and to distinguish complex r...
