Chronic pain and sensorimotor deficits following peripheral nerve injury

Pain
Keri S TaylorK D Davis

Abstract

Following upper limb peripheral nerve transection and surgical repair (PNIr) patients frequently exhibit sensory and motor deficits, but only some develop chronic neuropathic pain. Thus, the sensorimotor outcome of PNIr may be impacted by individual factors. Therefore, our aims were to determine if patients with chronic neuropathic pain (PNI-P) following PNIr (1) are distinguished from patients without pain (PNI-NP) and healthy controls (HCs) by the psychological factors of pain catastrophizing, neuroticism or extraversion, and (2) exhibit more severe sensorimotor deficits than patients who did not develop chronic pain (PNI-NP). Thirty-one patients with complete median and/or ulnar nerve transection (21 PNI-NP, 10 PNI-P) and 21 HCs completed questionnaires to assess pain characteristics, pain catastrophizing, neuroticism and extraversion and underwent sensorimotor evaluation. Nerve conduction studies revealed incomplete sensorimotor peripheral recovery based on abnormal sensory and motor latency and amplitude measures in transected nerves. The patients also had significant deficits of sensory function (two-point discrimination and vibration, touch, and warmth detection), sensorimotor integration, and fine motor dexterity.
