Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Conditioned pain modulation (CPM), which is a kind of endogenous pain modulatory mechanisms, is impaired in chronic pain patients, though healthy subjects shows CPM effects. Thus, CPM could be applied for pain control in chronic pain patients as tailor-made medicine. To establish tailor-made medicine, quantitative evaluation of CPM is needed. For the quantitative evaluation of CPM, a quantitative pressure algometer and a quantitative heat pain stimulator are developed. It is shown that the quantitative pressure algometer and the quantitative heat pain stimulator are sufficient for a quantitative evaluation of CPM. The study results show that the developed method could be applied for pain control in chronic pain patients as tailor-made medicine.
