Résumé : | This case report illustrates the value of a comprehensive perioperative pain assessment composed of quantitative sensory testing and self-reported measures that highlight the impact of pain experienced by a 14-year-old boy suffering from chronic low back pain and sciatica. Before surgery, the pain assessment revealed inefficient endogenous inhibitory pain control with presence of temporal summation of pain. The severe pain was constant and lasted for 18 months. The patient was in a high-anxiety state, and reported significant functional disability and poor sleep quality. Six months after surgery, the patient was pain free. Quantitative sensory testing showed an improvement in his inhibitory pain control with the absence of temporal summation of pain. The patient was no longer anxious, was back to normal functional abilities, and reported good sleep quality. By including neurophysiology and other pain measures, the clinical application of a comprehensive pain assessment can provide objective measurements of treatment efficacy. |
