The Influence of Sensory Phenotype on the Risk of Developing Neuropathic Pain
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis of the somatosensory phenotype, assessed by quantitative sensory testing (QST) and Information obtained by questionnaires to detect risk factors for neuropathic pain development and chronification in painless and chronic pain patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Somatosensory phenotype detected by quantitative sensory testing (QST) [Single assessment at baseline (cross-sectional study). Report of complete cohort data at study completion]
The somatosensory phenotype will be assessed by quantitative sensory testing (QST) once at baseline
- Change of neuropathic pain: Development and chronification of neuropathic pain detected by DN4 questionnaire [Assessment of change of neuropathic pain from baseline and 6 months after study enrollment (longitudinal study). Report of complete cohort data at study completion.]
Assessment with DN4 pain questionnaire
