| Pain scale Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs, is an instrument capable of reliably distinguishing a pain of nociceptive, neuropathic or mixed predominance. The scale ranges from 0 to 24 points and consists of two sections: one that explores the qualitative aspects and the other the sensitive aspects of pain. It will also be used before the therapeutic procedure and at the end;McGill's pain questionnaire. The subgroups from 1 to 10 represent sensitive responses to the painful experience (traction, heat, torsion, among others): the descriptors of the subgroups from 11 to 15 are affective responses (fear, punishment, neurovegetative responses, etc.); subgroup 16 is evaluative (global experience evaluation) and those from 17 to 20 are mixed. Evaluations will occur at times similar to those of previous evaluations | — |
