Abstract

Conditioned pain modulation (CPM) and offset analgesia (OA) are two psychophysical paradigms used for the assessment of endogenous pain modulation. Their mode of action is based on spatial and temporal filtering of nociceptive information, respectively, via activation of pain inhibitory mechanisms. Despite distinct brain mechanisms, both responses are deficient in patients with chronic pain. The CPM response had been proven for the prediction of pain acquisition and pain treatment success.
