Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Stated-Preferences Observational Group

A discrete choice experiment will be conducted with participants with peripheral neuropathic pain in the stated-preferences observational group. The instrument will measure patient preferences for topical versus systemic pain treatment.

Discrete Choice Experiment

Intervention Type OTHER

An online-based Discrete-Choice Experiment (DCE) using a survey for stated treatment preferences and socio-demographics. Furthermore, the neuropathic pain component will be assessed in all patients with the Numeric Pain Rating Scale instrument.
