The ideal pain assessment tool
would have the following attributes
1. Sensitive and free from bias
2. Immediate information about accuracy and
reliability
3. Distinguishes between pain, unpleasantness and
emotion;
4. Assesses experimental and clinical pain;
5. Absolute rather than relative scales;
6. Estimates confidence of predictions.

Outcome Measuring tool of NP
• Only for use in patients who have already been diagnosed with
NP.
• Scores are based on patient responses to questions about pain
intensity: 0 indicates no pain; 10 indicates the most pain
imaginable.
• Comprehensive and wise method for assessing NP and may be
particularly useful for assessing response to therapies.

Summary
Outcomes measurement: systematic collection and analysis of
information - evaluate the efficacy of an intervention
In many situations, one-item instrument is not sufficient to capture
pain or quality of life.
Some scales used to determine IF a patient's pain is secondary to
neuropathy: NPQ, ID- pain, painDetect, LANSS, DN4.
The Neuropathic Pain Scale (NPS) has the most empirical support
as a measure of treatment outcome in NP. Also Pain Quality
Assessment Scale (PQAS)
