Six different pain rating scales, including a "pain relief scale", were compared in 80 patients suffering acute orofacial pain. Pain intensity measurements were made before and after a 30 min period of afferent stimulation (TENS/vibration and placebo). A good correlation was found between pain scores derived from the pain relief scale, visual analogue-, numerical- and graphic rating scales. The verbal rating scale did not perform well. The pain relief scale and the numerical rating scale are interesting alternatives to the established visual analogue scale.
在80名患有急性口面部疼痛的患者中，对六种不同的疼痛评定量表（包括一种“疼痛缓解量表”）进行了比较。在30分钟的传入刺激（经皮电刺激神经疗法/振动和安慰剂）前后进行疼痛强度测量。发现疼痛缓解量表、视觉模拟量表、数字量表和图形评定量表得出的疼痛评分之间具有良好的相关性。言语评定量表表现不佳。疼痛缓解量表和数字量表是现有视觉模拟量表的有趣替代方法。
