Overview
Chronic pain affects about 100 million American adults—more than the total affected by heart disease, cancer, and diabetes combined. Pain also costs the nation up to $635 billion each year in medical treatment and lost productivity. As with all aspects of health care, the practice of pain management is ever evolving. Regulatory concerns over medication and opioid prescribing, new technologies, understandings in multidisciplinary and multimodal care call for ongoing education to the health care provider. This timely seminar will focus on the importance of accurate assessment and multimodal management of both acute and chronic pain, through understanding of pain pathophysiology and mechanisms. Pain affects all aspects of health care, it is political, fear provoking and in many ways mysterious. Over the course of this well-defined, seminar the audience will learn how to differentiate between types of pain, offer the best evidence-based treatments and be exposed to new innovative treatment approaches available today. Additional content will be presented on new, evolving technologies, including neuromodulation for pain management, auricular acupuncture and a broad exposure to behavioral and complementary treatments for pain management.
