Article Synopsis
- Researchers are trying to find better ways to measure pain because looking at how people act can be tricky and not very accurate.
- In a study with 11 infants who had surgery, they found that skin conductance (how well skin conducts electricity) was closely linked to skin temperature.
- The results suggest that monitoring how the body's nerves react could help assess pain more accurately, but the method needs to be improved before it can be regularly used.
