对于慢性疼痛患者来说，向朋友和亲戚以及医疗保健专业人员传达他们的疼痛感受是一个挑战。传统上，医生使用疼痛量表（数字、标准化词语、面部表情图像），但疼痛量表对患者来说可能具有挑战性，因为慢性疼痛是单独经历的。对于没有慢性疼痛亲身经历的亲戚和专业人士来说，他们也很难产生共鸣。在这幅图中，我们展示了一系列有形材料的设计探索，为慢性病患者表达疼痛提供了另一种选择。我们与六名患者合作，确定了八种不同类型的疼痛体验以及患者可能用来表达它们的物质隐喻。我们还开发了三个定制设计制品的例子，即疼痛沟通器，它们可以作为“有形疼痛量表”来表达疼痛体验。
For chronic pain patients, it is a challenge to communicate what their pain feels like - both to friends and relatives and to healthcare professionals. Traditionally doctors employ pain scales (numbers, standardised words, images of facial expressions), but pain scales can be challenging for patients, as chronic pain is experienced individually. They are also difficult to relate to for relatives and professionals, who do not have personal experience of chronic pain. In this pictorial, we present a series of design explorations with tangible materials to offer an alternative for chronic patients to express pain. In collaboration with six patients, we identify eight different types of pain experiences and the material metaphors that the patients may use to express them. We also develop three examples of tailored design artefacts, pain communicators, that can function as 'tangible pain scales' to express pain experiences.
