Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to compare pain description and emotional and psychosomatic discomfort in patients with chronic pain syndrome (CPS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in order to identify special characteristic features in patients with CPS. Methods used were a Visual Analogue Scale, the McGill Pain Questionnaire, a new pain, ache and hurt assessment tool and a questionnaire related to causes of pain, health perception and experienced emotional and psychosomatic discomfort. The patients with CPS perceived themselves as being less healthy than patients with RA. While the sensory quality of pain was similar in both groups, the emotional component was stronger in patients with CPS. They experienced more emotional and psychosomatic discomfort compared to patients with RA. They believed that factors associated with their work had caused the pain. The result indicates that assessment of ache by patients with CPS on the Visual Analogue Scale reflects the affective dimension of the experience.

摘要

本研究的目的是比较慢性疼痛综合征（CPS）患者和类风湿性关节炎（RA）患者的疼痛描述、情绪及身心不适情况，以便确定CPS患者的特殊特征。使用的方法包括视觉模拟评分法、麦吉尔疼痛问卷、一种新的疼痛、酸痛和刺痛评估工具以及一份与疼痛原因、健康认知以及所经历的情绪和身心不适相关的问卷。CPS患者认为自己的健康状况不如RA患者。虽然两组患者疼痛的感觉性质相似，但CPS患者的情绪成分更强。与RA患者相比，他们经历了更多的情绪和身心不适。他们认为与工作相关的因素导致了疼痛。结果表明，CPS患者在视觉模拟评分法上对疼痛的评估反映了体验的情感维度。
