There is wide discrepancy on how to perform clinical assessment of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy. In this scenario, the Electronic von Frey (EVF), which evaluates pain objectively based upon mechanical pain thresholds (MPTs), may be a valuable tool. The present study aims to quantify hyperalgesia in the hands and feet of patients treated with oxaliplatin and to propose a novel method to classify the degree of neurotoxicity using EVF-derived measures as cut-off points.
