The pain center/clinic is in the stage of transition. It has come a
long way since chronic pain was a nonexistent entity and patients
with difficult pain problems did not receive well-deserved
attention or were lost in the busy practices of vari ous specialty
clinics. Thirty-five years ahead of the rest of us, John]. Bonica
was the first physician who had a clear vision of a pain center's
potential. Twenty years later, in response to loud public demands
for relief of chronic pain, this idea was put into practice by a
number of others on a somewhat larger scale. A team of specialists
from various disciplines, trained in the management of chronic
pain, now offer approaches ranging from simple outpatient care to
inpatient hospital ization for comprehensive care including drug
detoxification, behavior modi fication, and total rehabilitation of
these patients. Hospitals have entered this arena with renewed
enthusiasm. The pain center/clinic is now an established, ac
cepted, and expanding method of providing care for chronic pain
patients. The chapters in this book are based on examples of
multidisciplinary projects that deal comprehensively with
management of chronic pain. Aimed primarily at the pain
center/clinic in the university hospital setting, this book ranges
from his torical perspectives to current pain centers with their
less orthodox methods of re lieving chronic pain to the future of
algology as a specialty."
