Test–retest reliability of Wagner Pressure algometer in measuring pain Pressure threshold in patients with chronic neck pain: repeated-measures reliability study

Key Points

• This study aims to evaluate the test-retest reliability of the Wagner Pressure Algometer for assessing pain pressure thresholds in chronic neck pain sufferers.
• Conduct repeated measures of pain pressure threshold using the Wagner algometer
• Include patients diagnosed with chronic neck pain
• Analyze reliability metrics over multiple assessments
• The Wagner algometer demonstrates excellent test-retest reliability
• Patients exhibited consistent pain pressure threshold measurements across assessments
• Findings support its use in clinical pain management settings
