Short project description:

My interest is focusing on characteristics of elderly pain perception, pain evaluation in comunicant and non comunicant old pacients with pain and the depresed pacients. All the data obtained for old pacients without actual pains and for diabetic pacients with arteriopathic and neuropathic pains will be useful for the assessment of pain and in therapeutical schemas.
