"Unrelieved chronic pain is a worldwide epidemic"Chronic pain has
been subject to multiple international initiatives through the
World Health Organization. Interventional Pain Medicine, use of
minimally invasive techniques to relieve pain, is the best approach
when simpler measures such as physical therapy or medications fail.
However, these procedures can be associated with significant risk
and expense. Establishing uniformity in diagnostic criteria and
procedural performance can reduce both morbidity and unnecessary
procedures, and hence healthcare expenditures.
While other texts explain how to perform these procedures,
little focus has been given to diagnostic considerations: if and
when these procedures should be performed. "Evidence-based
Interventional Pain Practice" uniquely focuses on how the
establishment of an accurate and specific diagnosis relates to the
effectiveness of the interventions. It provides the evidence for
the use of interventional pain techniques across all areas of
chronic pain including:
- Head, neck and shoulder pain - Spinal pain - Pain in the
joints and extremities- Complex Regional Pain Syndrome- Phantom
pain
"Evidence-based Interventional Pain Practice" provides essential
knowledge for anyone who uses, or intends to use, interventional
pain techniques.
