Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to determine the association between circadian rhythm-related factors and unpredictable breakthrough pain. This was a multicenter, prospective clinical study. Forty-nine patients with terminal cancer patients cooperated with us to complete subjective assessments of pain and sleep using a questionnaire and objective assessments of sleep using actigraph.The results suggested that "intensity of daily pain" and "anxiety" could be factors in the appearance of breakthrough pain. This study is the first attempt to search for the causes of breakthrough pain in terminal cancer patients by adding an objective assessment system to subjective assessment, and is significant in that we were able to identify several candidate factors that could be the cause of breakthrough pain.
