Abstract
Measurements were made of the changes in skin resistance following the radiant stimulus of the Hardy-Wolff technique. Although the response generally increased with a report of pain it is not reliable enough for an objective end point. The skin resistance response was greatly decreased following morphine. This was also observed in post-addicts who might show no increase in pain threshold following the drug.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
