Course introduction:
Neurophysiology of pain in humans In the eSeminar we will be covering the main aspects of neurophysiological studies of pain in humans.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this seminar the participants will be able to:
- Learn the technical specifics of the main neurophysiological tests commonly used for investigating nociceptive systems.
- Understand the diagnostic usefulness of nociceptive evoked potentials (laser evoked potentials and contact heat evoked potentials in assessing patients with neuropathic pain).
- Acquire knowledge on how the neurophysiological testing may improve our knowledge about the mechanisms of underlying neuropathic pain.
