The international spinal cord injury pain basic data set (version 3.0).

The ISCIPBDS (Version 3.0) was updated to make the dataset more flexible and useful: 1. The assessment can be based on the patient's perception of several of his/her "worst" pain(s) or based on the International SCI Pain (ISCIP) Classification-defined or other pain types, depending on the specific research questions or clinical needs. 2. Pain interference should usually be rated for overall pain but may also be used for specific pain problems if needed. 3. An optional pain drawing was added to complement the check box documentation of pain location. 4. Data categories consistent with the Extended Pain Dataset list of current treatments were added. 5. Several new training cases were added.
