22 set 2022 · Pressure pain threshold (PPT) can be a good measure of the magnitude of clinical muscle pain 20,21,22,23, such as DOMS and low back pain with myofascial TrPs, since their most remarkable...
1 lug 2021 · The pooled pressure pain threshold mean difference was -1.17 (95% confidence interval = -1.45 to -0.90). There was, however, evidence of significant heterogeneity across the studies (I2 = 87.42%, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Patients who experience chronic pain have a significantly lower pressure pain threshold compared with healthy ...

30 set 2020 · One common QST assessment is pressure pain threshold (PPT), typically measured using an algometer. An algometer is a device with a force transducer allowing quantitative measurement of force, typically applied via a 1.0 cm 2 flat applicator tip.
Point tenderness was recently evaluated in 33 patients by assessing pain pressure thresholds in symptomatic and asymptomatic facets joints. 16 Although the pain pressure thresholds are significantly lower in patients with neck pain, this approach is not diagnostic for cervical facet joint pain.
