Pancreatic Quantitative Sensory Testing (P-QST) (NCT06996535)
Pancreatic Quantitative Sensory Testing (P-QST) in Pediatric Patients With Acute Recurrent Pancreatitis and Chronic Pancreatitis: Evaluation and Prediction of Treatment Response
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) is a novel investigative technique used in other pain conditions to evaluate patterns of chronic pain, and in this study will be used to elucidate pain patterns in patients with Chronic Pancreatitis (CP). QST uses a specific series of standardized stimulations to map the pain system. QST has the potential to change and improve the treatment paradigm for patients with CP and may eventually be able to predict response to invasive CP therapies.
