Research findings indicate that patients suffering from chronic pain can moderate their emotional response to such pain with stimulation of the spinal cord.
A team of researchers from the Ohio State Neurological Institute focused their study on some 10 patients that were suffering from severe chronic leg pain. These patients were implanted with a spinal cord stimulator so as to reduce pain. The research is built on earlier findings that hinted on the idea of the neuromatrix pain theory. The theory states that pain varies according to emotional, cognitive and sensory influences. The resting state network of the human brain is called the default mode network or DMN. It has been shown that DMN plays a significant role in the cognitive and emotional aspects of perceiving pain. DMN is also associated with the main functional connectivity of the brain and its networks. The resting DMN is described as abnormal in patients with chronic and painful conditions. It implicates the effect of the chronic conditions on locations that are beyond perception of pain. Through the use of the functional magnetic resonance imaging, the researchers were able to map out the areas of the human brain that are involved in the process of pain perception and the accompanying modulation. It is through understanding the neural networks responsible for the pathophysiology of pain that the researchers can come up with therapies to reduce and manage chronic persistent pain (Deogaonkar, et al., 2016)."
