Abstract
Forty-five consecutive patients treated for postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) at the UCLA Pain Management Center were studied. Demographic data, the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), psychological symptoms, Beck Depression Scale, McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ), and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of pain intensity were examined as predictors of treatment outcome from a multimodal pain management program. Age was the only pretreatment variable positively related to outcome.
