Is pre-hospital treatment of chest pain optimal in acute coronary syndrome? the relief of both pain and anxiety is needed
2011, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :This human problem may interfere with the reliability of analogue scales of all kinds. Another method that has been used is the Paino-meter [22–24] where patients are asked to use different words to describe their pain. This instrument has two parts reflecting a) the sensory component of pain and b) the emotional component of pain.

2005, Journal of Pain and Symptom ManagementCitation Excerpt :One possible explanation is that women may be more likely than men to have well-developed collateral coronary circulation, as noted by Waldecker et al.41 Another possible explanation is that women may be more likely than men to have non-Q wave MI, as reported by several studies.20,25,42,43 Previous studies also have found that patients with Q wave MI were more likely than patients with non-Q wave MI to report higher pain intensity.44,45 Another possible reason is that women are more likely to have inferior MI.46
Symptoms and type of symptom onset in acute coronary syndrome in relation to ST elevation, sex, age, and a history of diabetes
2005, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :To describe the character of the pain and experience of symptoms, we used words divided into a sensory component and an emotional component. These word descriptors have been previously tested in suspected AMI.10,11 The final part of the questionnaire contained questions relating to baseline characteristics.
