Quantitative Sensory Testing in Chronic Pain Patients Undergoing Opioid Treatment and Opioid Tapering
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating sensory testing (Heat, cold, and pressure) and Promis Survey for Analgesic Drug Dependence and Sensory Deficit. Completed, enrolled 43 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Few studies have used quantitative sensory tests to study the effect of chronic opioid treatment on sensation. The investigators will test chronic pain patients who are on different MEDDs, normal volunteers, and patients undergoing an opioid taper. This will be the first study to perform sensory testing on patients while undergoing an opioid taper on an outpatient basis.
