- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method conditioned pain modulation (CPM)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Firstly, numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Hospital Anxiety, Depression Scale (HADS) and determined pressure pain thresholds (PPTs). Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and galvanic skin response (GSR) were then attached at the resting position. Temporal summation (TS) and conditioned pain modulation (CPM) were evaluated at four minutes after rest.
