Cold hyperesthesia and chronic pain after pediatric-onset spinal cord injury: an exploratory cross-sectional study
Assessment of change in cold sensory function, above, at or below the SCI, highlights the presence of pathophysiological mechanisms throughout the neuroaxis after SCI in the paediatric cohort. Further understanding of cold hyperaesthesia and chronic nociceptive and neuropathic pain subtypes, in a larger statistically powered confirmatory study may lead to an improved prognosis of SCI pain in the pediatric population.
