自1979年发表以来，国际疼痛研究协会(IASP)对“疼痛”的官方定义没有进行过太多修订。从不同角度对文献中的定义提出了不同的批评。在我看来，这些批评大多基于误解或无情的解读。我的目的是重温这个定义，澄清一些潜在的模棱两可的地方，并辩称这些批评不会有多大效果。最后，我将提出几个略微改写的定义版本，我认为这些版本更恰当，并以更好和透明的方式抓住了分类委员会成员最初的意图，避免了现有文献中所有主要的现有批评。
The official definition of 'pain' by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) hasn't seen much revision since its publication in 1979. There have been various criticisms of the definition in the literature from different quarters. In my view, most of these criticisms depend on misunderstandings or on uncharitable interpretations. My aim is to go over the definition, clarify some potential ambiguities, and argue that these criticisms don't cut much ice. At the end, I will present a few slightly reworded versions of the definition that I claim are more felicitous and capture the original intended meaning by the members of the taxonomic committee in a much better and transparent way that avoids all the major extant criticisms in the literature.
