You should post info on study design. Low N. A cohort of 28 being admitted for Psychiatric diease at VA is not representative of any of our patients.

I'm proud to take care of Vets who escape their Agency's bureaucratic shackles on loan from the VA.

I see a lot of recent research targeting quantitative, objective measures of pain. But I can't see how something like this will ever be used in place of a patient's reported pain.

In practical terms, we will never deny a pt's pain.

It could be useful to be used with biofeedback I guess...
