Brief thermal sensitization
A small area of the skin of the study participants are heated to 45 degree celsius for 3 minutes, followed by evaluation of secondary hyperalgesia.
Pain during 1 min. thermal stimulation
A small area of the skin of the study participants are heated to 45 degrees celsius for 1 minute. During the 1 minute period, the study participant will continually report pain on an electronic visual analog scale.
Heat pain detection threshold
The threshold for heat pain are evaluated by heating a small area of the study participants skin. When the study participant feels pain, the temperature (degrees celsius) is registered. 4 threshold measurements per session. Heat pain threshold is defined as the average temperature of the 4 measurements.
