Using a brain implant that can record neural signals over many months, my research team and I have discovered objective biomarkers of chronic pain severity in four patients with chronic pain as they went about their daily lives.
We asked the patients about their pain severity levels several times a day for up to six months. We then builtmodels to try to match and predict each patient's self-reported pain intensity scores with snapshots of their brain activity signals.
corresponded with each of the patient's subjective pain intensities, providing an objective measure of chronic pain.
