  1. Tools for the diagnosis of cancer pain

  2. Using Screening Tools for Pain Valid and reliable assessment of pain is essential for effective pain management • Pain is subjective • Can be described according to several relevant features: • Quality • Location • Intensity • Aversiveness • Emotional impact • Frequency • When considering pain assessment limited to intensity, a unidimensional tool should be used • Multidimensional tools and health-related quality of life measures should be used to assess other aspects of pain Caraceni A et al. J Pain Symptom Manage. 2002;23:239-55; Breivik H et al. Br J Anaesth. 2008;101:17-24.

  3. Tools for Cancer Pain Assessment • Formal instruments to describe the dimensions of pain include: • The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)1 • Patient self-rating scale that assesses pain intensity and pain interference in various areas of function1 • The McGill Pain Questionnaire2 • Assesses the sensory, affective and evaluative components of pain. • The Memorial Pain Assessment Card3 • Measures pain intensity, pain relief and mood on simple scales • Both the McGill pain questionnaire and the BPI have been translated into several languages 1.

  4. Assessing Acute Pain Pain Intensity Impact of Pain on Function • Visual analog scale (VAS) • Self-rating on a 0–100 mm scale • Numerical rating scale • Self-rating on a 11-point scale: 0 = no pain to 10 = worst pain • Time-specific pain intensity • “My pain at this time is: none, mild, moderate, severe” (0 to 3 rating) • Time-specific pain relief • “My pain relief at this time is: none, a little, some, a lot, complete” (0 to 4 rating) • American Pain Society (APS) questionnaire • The degree to which pain interferes with patient function, such as mood, walking and sleep • Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) • Evaluates severity, impact and impairment on daily living, mood and enjoyment of life Coll AM et al.

  6. Determine Pain Intensity Simple Descriptive Pain Intensity Scale No pain Worst pain Very severe pain Mild pain Moderate pain Severe pain 0–10 Numeric Pain Intensity Scale 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 No pain Moderate pain Worst possible pain Faces Pain Scale – Revised International Association for the Study of Pain.

  7. APS Questionnaire • Measures 6 aspects of pain quality: • Pain severity and relief • Impact of pain on activity, sleep and negative emotions • Side effects of treatment • Helpfulness of information about pain treatment • Ability to participate in pain treatment decisions • Use of non-pharmacological strategies Gordon DB et al. J Pain 2010; 11(11):1172-86.

  8. APS Questionnaire Gordon DB et al. J Pain 2010; 11(11):1172-86.

  9. Sensitivity and Specificity of Neuropathic Pain Screening Tools • Tests incorporating both interview questions and physical tests have higher sensitivity and specificity than tools that rely only on interview questions *Compared with clinical diagnosis DN4 = Douleur neuropathic en 4 questions; LANSS = Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs; NPQ = Neuropathic Pain Questionnaire; NR = not reported Bennett MI et al. Pain 2007; 127(3):199-203.

  10. LANSS Scale • Completed by physician in office • Differentiates neuropathic from nociceptive pain • 5 pain questions and 2 skin sensitivity tests • Identifies contribution of neuropathic mechanisms to pain • Validated LANSS = Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs Bennett M. Pain 2001; 92(1-2):147-57.

  11. Completed by physician in office Differentiates neuropathic from nociceptive pain 2 pain questions (7 items) 2 skin sensitivity tests (3 items) Score 4 is an indicator for neuropathic pain Validated DN4 DN4 = Douleur neuropathique en 4 questionsBouhassira D et al. Pain 2005; 114(1-2):29-36.

  12. painDETECT • Patient-based, easy-to-use screening questionnaire • Developed to distinguish between neuropathic pain and non-neuropathic pain* • Validated: high sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive accuracy • Seven questions about quality and three about severity of pain • Questions about location, radiation and time course *Validation was in patients with low back pain Freynhagen R et al. Curr Med Res Opin 2006; 22(10):1911-20.

  13. ID Pain • Patient-completed screening tool • Includes 6 yes/no questions and pain-location diagram • Developed to differentiate between nociceptive and neuropathic pain • Validated Portenoy R. Curr Med Res Opin 2006; 22(8):1555-65
