Exploring the complexities of pain phenotypes: OMERACT 2023 chronic pain working group workshop
Authors' conclusion
There is need for a standardized pain measure that can differentiate underlying pain mechanisms.
Study context
- Population
- OMERACT chronic pain working group workshop participants; data from two data sets of Rheumatic Musculoskeletal Diseases (RMDs) patients assessing prevalence and impact of nociplastic pain
Methodological detailsconsensus workshop, plenary presentations, audience breakout group sessions, polling, Data from two data sets of RMD patients on the prevalence and impact of nociplastic pain were presented and reviewed
- Consensus workshop
- Plenary presentations
- Audience breakout group sessions
- Polling
- Data from two data sets of RMD patients on the prevalence and impact of nociplastic pain were presented and reviewed
Recommendations
As reported in the abstract
- Mixed pain etiologies may differentially influence disease activity assessment and therapeutic decision-making
- Polling: consensus on the need to assess different types of pain as a phenotype, as an important contextual factor, and to standardize across RMDs
