Multisensory Hypersensitivity in Women With Fibromyalgia: Implications for Well Being and Intervention
چکیده انگلیسی

Wilbarger JL, Cook DB. Multisensory hypersensitivity in women with fibromyalgia: implications for well being and intervention.ObjectiveTo document sensory sensitivities to nonnoxious sensory stimuli in daily life for participants with fibromyalgia (FM).DesignDescriptive study of a convenience sample using a self-report survey of sensory processing.SettingParticipants were recruited from the general community. The procedure took place in a research room at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.ParticipantsWomen with FM (n=27) were compared with women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (n=28) and healthy pain-free women (controls) (n=28) (N=83).InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasureA self-report measure of sensory sensitivity to stimuli encountered in daily life. Items ask participants if they are sensitive to sensations that do not seem to bother other people or avoid common activities or environments because of sensory stimuli.ResultsThe FM group reported significantly increased sensory sensitivities to both somatic (tactile) and nonsomatic (eg, auditory and olfactory) sensory stimuli compared with the RA and control groups. The RA and control groups did not differ in reported hypersensitivities.ConclusionsWomen with fibromyalgia reported increased sensitivities to stimuli in the environment and could experience more stress related to sensory conditions in daily life.
