Study Summary
This current study is intended to be completed under the umbrella of the current GHUCCTS IRB- approved study "Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia In Prescription Opioid Abusers: Effects of Pregabalin" (Lyrica study) (PRO00000669). In this proposed study, 10 healthy male, 10 healthy female participants and 5 male, 5 female OIH participants (from the parent Lyrica study), who are prescription opioid abusers with chronic pain currently taking Suboxone, will be asked to take the cold pressor test at 1, 5, and 9 degrees Celsius and to report the time at which pain has completely gone away following each test. The purpose of this study is to examine how the water temperature of the cold pressure test might affect the participants' response (i.e., the participants pain threshold and pain tolerance) and to see if there is a difference in how each participation group is affected.
Primary Outcome
In a well-described sample of prescription opioid abusers and healthy control subjects, the cold pressor test will be administered to examine how long it takes for a subject to start feeling pain when they immerse their forearm in the cold water (measured in seconds).
