Pain catastrophizing: an updated review

Lawrence Leung, Lawrence Leung

Abstract

Pain catastrophizing has been described for more than half a century which adversely affects the pain coping behavior and overall prognosis in susceptible individuals when challenged by painful conditions. It is a distinct phenomenon which is characterized by feelings of helplessness, active rumination and excessive magnification of cognitions and feelings toward the painful situation. Susceptible subjects may have certain demographic or psychological predisposition. Various models of pain catastrophizing have been proposed which include attention-bias, schema-activation, communal-coping and appraisal models. Nevertheless, consensus is still lacking as to the true nature and mechanisms for pain catastrophizing. Recent advances in population genomics and noninvasive neuroimaging have helped elucidate the known determinants and neurophysiological correlates behind this potentially disabling behavior.

Keywords: Disability; pain catastrophizing; rehabilitation; review.

Conceptual diagram of the neuromatrix theory as a refinement of the gate-control theory. Itself visualized as an entity (like an incessant spinning sphere) comprising of the somatosensory (S), cognitive (C)and affective (A) domains, the neuromatrix receives inputs from areas of the brain governing sensation, emotions and cognitions; and in return, churns out a neurosignature (output) which activates various programs for pain recognition, motor response, emotional and stress reactions.
