Abstract

Generalized pain hypersensitivity is frequently observed in chronic pain conditions. Currently, identification is based on expert clinical opinion, and in very few cases combined with quantitative sensory testing. The objectives of this study were to develop and evaluate a short self-report measure of generalized pain hypersensitivity: a generalized pain questionnaire (GPQ).
