Brief Summary: Background Several studies have indicated that infants who had undergone postnatal painful procedures appear to be hypersensitive to pain with a lower threshold to tactile stimulations later on life

Objective To study the effect of early exposure to pain on cerebral somatosensory evoked potential SEP response to thermal stimulation 550C in preterm and full term born adolescents 15-18 years old who have undergone painful procedures during their neonatal period As well as to study the effect of early exposure to thermal and tactile sensory thresholds and pain thresholds to thermal and tactile stimuli by using the TSA and von Frey hairs

Design Case-control study

Participants Four groups of 20 adolescents aged 15-18 years two of which are full term and preterm-born who were exposed to painful procedures during the neonatal period The other two groups are term and preterm-born adolescents who were not exposed to such procedures

Main Outcome Measures Cerebral SEP response P300 Medoc Ltd Israel to thermal stimulation 550C Warm-sensation threshold WST heat-pain threshold HPT Cold sensation threshold CST and cold pain threshold CPT by using Thermal sensory analyzer TSA-2001Medoc Ltd Israel Pain threshold to tactile stimulation will be measured by using Von-Frey hairs
