Sensory testing

Quantitative sensory testing (QST) will be performed. QST was developed to standardize the noninvasive assessment of the somatosensory nervous system and quantify functioning of all aspects of sensation (light touch, pressure, warm, cold, pain, vibration): 1. Thermal detection (Medoc TSA system): Cold detection threshold B) Warm detection threshold C) Heat pain threshold 2. Mechanical detection threshold (MRC Opti Hair von Frey Filaments) 3. Two-point discrimination (MRC Opti Hair von Frey Filaments) 4. Mechanical pain threshold (MRC Pinprick Stimulator) 5. Pressure pain threshold (Medoc Pressure algometer) 6. Tinel sign on physical exam 7. Vibration (tuning fork)
