What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Somatosensory phenotype detected by quantitative sensory testing (QST)

    The somatosensory phenotype will be assessed by quantitative sensory testing (QST) once at baseline

    Time frame: Single assessment at baseline (cross-sectional study). Report of complete cohort data at study completion

  2. Change of neuropathic pain: Development and chronification of neuropathic pain detected by DN4 questionnaire

    Assessment with DN4 pain questionnaire

    Time frame: Assessment of change of neuropathic pain from baseline and 6 months after study enrollment (longitudinal study). Report of complete cohort data at study completion.
