| description | There are no reliable, objective and simple methods today for measuring pain in horses. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and describe measuring of mechanical nociceptive threshold (MNT) values with a pressure algometer in clinically pain free riding horses at the riding school of Strömsholm. In this study there were 24 horses. Tape recording and electromyelografi (EMG) was used in an attempt to increase objectivity in the examination. MNT increased with age, however sex and colour had no influence. No differences were observed between right and left side, depending on which side the measuring started on or between the different registrations in each point. Along the back there was a difference in MNT value between different points, the variance was however equally large in all points. |

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and describe measuring of mechanical nociceptive threshold (MNT) values with a pressure algometer in clinically pain free riding horses at the riding school of Strömsholm. In this study there were 24 horses. Tape recording and electromyelografi (EMG) was used in an attempt to increase objectivity in the examination. MNT increased with age, however sex and colour had no influence. No differences were observed between right and left side, depending on which side the measuring started on or between the different registrations in each point. Along the back there was a difference in MNT value between different points, the variance was however equally large in all points. I dagsläget saknas tillförlitliga, objektiva och enkla metoder för att mäta smärta hos hästar. Syftet med den här studien var att utvärdera och beskriva mätning av mekaniskt nociceptivt tröskelvärde (MNT) med en tryckalgometer hos kliniskt smärtfria ridhästar vid Strömsholms ridskola. I studien ingick 24 hästar. Filmning och elektromyelografi (EMG) användes i ett försök att öka objektiviteten i undersökningen. Stor skillnad kunde ses mellan individer. MNT ökade med åldern, däremot påverkade inte kön eller färg. Ingen skillnad sågs mellan höger och vänster sida, beroende av på vilken sida mätningen påbörjades eller mellan de olika registreringarna på varje punkt. Längs ryggen fanns det en skillnad i MNT-värde mellan olika punkter, variansen var däremot lika stor i samtliga punkter.
