Abstract
The existing difficulties in objectifying the patient’s complaints about the severity of the pain syndrome create the need to create new practical tools for assessing its intensity, as well as monitoring the effectiveness of treatment. Based on the accumulated experience of providing care to patients with neuropathic pain syndrome of traumatic genesis, the staff of the M.I. Astvatsaturov Clinic of Nervous Diseases of the Kirov Military Medical Academy has developed a method for assessing the severity and monitoring the effectiveness of treatment of neuropathic pain syndrome. The method is based on the patient’s auto-monitoring of his pain sensations during one day with the sequential fixation of the average hourly indicator of the severity of the pain experienced on an 11-point digital rating scale, as well as indicating the duration and quality of sleep in a daily graphic pain diary. The doctor evaluates the average daily and total daily pain indicators, as well as sleep parameters. The developed method has high visibility and reproducibility, has been tested, implemented and is used at the Kirov Military Medical Academy in the treatment of patients with neuropathic pain syndrome.
