Primary headaches: Diagnosis and treatment
Current Review of Pain - Tập 3 - Trang 100-108 - 1999
Headache is considered the most common pain condition, yet the varieties of
headache have only recently been organized into a diagnostic system with
operational rules. This review outlines the classification system established in
1988 by the International Headache Society as it relates to diagnosis and
treatment of the three main types of primary headache: migraine, tension-type,
and cluster heada...
Sex, gender, and pain: Women and men really are different
Current Review of Pain - Tập 4 - Trang 24-30 - 2000
Sex-related differences in the experience of both clinical and experimentally
induced pain have been widely reported. Specifically, females are at greater
risk for developing several chronic pain disorders, and women exhibit greater
sensitivity to noxious stimuli in the laboratory compared with men. Several
mechanisms have been proposed to account for these sex differences. Psychosocial
factors su...
The development of a technique for radiofrequency lesioning of splanchnic nerves
Current Review of Pain - Tập 3 - Trang 377-387 - 1999
This article describes the development of a technique for radiofrequency
lesioning of the splanchnic nerves. It features point neurolysis and improvement
in safety from previously described techniques with the use of a curved, blunt
needle. After extensive anatomic studies, the site of entry has been identified
4 cm lateral to the spinous process at the costovertebral angle of either the
T11 or T1...
Visceral nociception
Current Review of Pain - Tập 4 - Trang 478-487 - 2000
Visceral pain is of great concern to the medical community because it remains
particularly resistant to current clinical treatments. A serendipitous and
initially unexplainable clinical finding that a punctate midline dorsal column
lesion is effective in eliminating visceral pain, however, has initiated a
resurgence of interest in the study of the basic mechanisms of visceral
nociception. Clinical...
Discography
Current Review of Pain - Tập 4 - Trang 345-352 - 2000
Discography is a diagnostic tool that has been used for many years. Although
controversial, it provides a physiologic test for evaluation of a disc with a
volumetric, manometric, radiographic, and pain-provocative challenge. Although
it has a controversial past, when the anatomy and pathophysiology are considered
particularly in relation to intradiscal pressure and applied loads (that
correlate wi...
Are pain disorder and somatization disorder valid diagnostic entities?
Current Review of Pain - Tập 4 Số 4 - Trang 309-312 - 2000
Characteristics and mode of action of radiofrequency lesions
Current Review of Pain - Tập 2 - Trang 143-150 - 1998
When making a radiofrequency (RF) lesion the temperature at the tip of the
electrode is commonly measured, but the temperature gradients away from the
electrode tip are determined by a number of variables. A computer model is
described that calculates the influence of these variables in a plane
perpendicular to the electrode.The computer model indicates that the duration of
the initial phase of ri...
Do neurolytic blocks have a role in chronic nonmalignant pain?
Current Review of Pain - Tập 2 - Trang 181-186 - 1998
Neurolytic blockade and neural blockade in general have come under scrutiny as
the evidence-based medicine revolution moves forward. Prognostic nerve blocks
with local anesthetic have been shown to correlate poorly with relief of chronic
pain following nerve resection [1]. Numerous reasons exist to explain the
discrepancy [2]. The purpose of this chapter is to describe the role of
neurolytic block...
Neurosurgical invasive techniques for cancer pain: A pain specialist’s view
Current Review of Pain - Tập 3 - Trang 190-197 - 1999
Neurosurgical techniques for management of cancer pain can be divided into two
categories: reconstructive and ablative. For patients with pain from spinal
metastatic disease, the newer surgical methods of anterior decompression and
stabilization provide reliable pain control while preventing serious neurologic
progression. Minimally invasive techniques for vertebral stabilization, such as
vertebro...
