Abstract

The CatWalk gait analysis system has recently been suggested as a rapid and objective alternative method over the von Frey test to assess mechanical allodynia in chronic neuropathic pain models. Our results demonstrate that no correlation exists between the development of mechanical allodynia and changes in CatWalk-gait parameters in a chronic inflammatory pain model. Hence, the use of the CatWalk in assessment of experimental chronic pain is discussed.
