The system produces a Pain Profile and classification for each patient based on a mathematical comparison of the pathophysiologic, psychological and behavioral aspects of chronic pain. This computer-based evaluation assists the researcher in analyzing the relative importance of the chronic pain components and helps direct the clinician to the appropriate emphasis of therapy.
