Abstract:
:Marstock thermotesting evaluates A-delta- and C-fiber functions. To optimize this method, intraindividual variations of vasodilatation, blood flow and sympathetic activity probably biasing thermotest results were imitated by exogenous stimuli which strongly exaggerated these intraindividual variations. In 20 healthy subjects, warm (WT), cold (CT), and heat-pain (HT) thresholds were determined in the morning at the thenar (th), the volar wrist (wr), and behind the malleolus internus (mi). Thresholds at the thenar and the volar wrist were compared with those during severe sweating induced by Minor's test, and to those measured when sympathetic activity had been increased by the ingestion of a high dose of caffeine (0.5 g). Furthermore, the intraindividual variation of local capillary blood flow and vasodilatation was imitated by a rubefacient liniment (Forapin) applied to the three sites. After a local hyperemisation had been induced thermal thresholds were measured and compared to those measured without any stimulation. Local hyperemia did not influence thermal thresholds significantly. Sweating only lowered cold thresholds at the thenar significantly and only slightly raised warm and heat-pain thresholds at the thenar. Caffeine significantly lowered warm thresholds and raised heat-pain thresholds at the thenar. To conclude, the tested exogenous interferences do not disturb thermal perception markedly, especially when testing is not performed at the thenar, but at the volar wrist and when the testing-procedure and parameters are standardised.
