“…Because individual pain thresholds are evaluated first to provide accurate subsequent measurement with the device, pain intensity can be quantitatively compared among patients. The device has been used in studies on persistent chronic pain such as herpes zoster‐associated pain (6). To the best of our knowledge, although no study has investigated the measurement of procedural pain with this device such as pain caused by the removal of wound dressing materials as investigated in this study, we observed that pain lasting for a certain time could be adequately measured with the PainVision™ system.…”

“…• in this study, we observed that pain lasting for a certain time could be adequately measured with the PainVision™ system VAS (7) and FPRS (8), but both are subjective methods (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). In these methods, the intensity of current pain is determined by comparing the reported pain level with a 'pain of maximum intensity' value.…”

“…Moreover, the comparison of measurements for relatively weak pain is even less reliable. PainVision™, a system for the quantitative analysis of perception and pain, which has recently started to be used in the field of pain and anesthesiology (5,6), gives patients alternative painless sensory stimulation equivalent to pain (mainly by stimulating sensory nerve fibres Aβ and Aδ) and measures the intensity of the stimulation (5,6). Because individual pain thresholds are evaluated first to provide accurate subsequent measurement with the device, pain intensity can be quantitatively compared among patients.…”

Reducing pain caused by the removal of adhesive wound dressing materials is very important in clinical practice and is also one of the factors to consider when choosing dressing materials. A visual analogue scale is the most popular method for assessing pain, but it is subjective and is difficult to evaluate quantitatively or statistically. Recently, a new method for the quantitative measurement of pain intensity using a painless electrical stimulation system, PainVision™, has been developed. In this study, we evaluated pain intensity during the removal of wound dressing materials in healthy volunteers by comparing pain during the removal of wound dressing materials, which use acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive and pain during the removal of materials, which use soft silicone adhesive, as evaluated using the PainVision™ system. Pain intensity was significantly lower with the dressing materials, which use soft silicone adhesive when measured with the PainVision™ system. The PainVision™ system promises to be useful for the quantitative assessment of pain caused by the removal of adhesive wound dressing materials. Further studies are needed to determine whether the PainVision™ system is also effective in measuring pain caused by the removal of wound dressing materials in actual wounds.

Understanding and precise assessment of pain level are key factors in rehabilitation therapy. Pain is a complex and subjective experience that is affected by an individual’s emotion and health conditions. Various methods have been developed for quantitative evaluation of pain level; however, these methods have several drawbacks. In this work, we developed a pain measurement device for quantitative pain assessment. The system consists of two parts, a component for electrical stimulation and a pressure dolorimeter, for application of two different stresses. Regarding electrical stimulation, the degree of pain is assessed by the applied current. Skin resistance was also analyzed by applying current to remove the effects caused by skin conditions. The electrical stimulation did not induce any histological changes or inflammation in the tissues. Using the pressure dolorimeter, the pain level was assessed according to the degree of inflammation. This system could be used for the quantitative assessment of pain induced by inflammation, wounds, and other factors. Since the described system is the first of its kind, there are many problems that remain to be solved. However, with continuous development, our system could provide more accurate pain assessment by removing skin condition effects and through cross-validation.
