Chronic pain is a silent epidemic -- it is estimated to affect
20-30% of the population. A good understanding of the disease,
diagnosis and management are imperative in providing
patient-centred care. A broad range of practitioners will
frequently encounter patients with chronic pain. This book covers
important topics in chronic pain relevant to many clinicians
including, but not limited to, anaesthetists, intensive care
professionals, surgical and nursing staff, junior doctors,
operating department practitioners, general practitioners and
medical students. It makes essential reading for healthcare workers
and is also an invaluable first reference for physiotherapists,
healthcare managers, psychologists and researchers with a need for
an overview of the key aspects of this topic. This book will not
only be an invaluable resource for trainee anaesthetists but also
for practising anaesthetists with an interest in teaching the
basics of chronic pain; it is also a succinct aid for clinical
practice. Medical students and junior doctors, who are about to
embark on a career in anaesthesia or intensive care medicine, will
also find the book to be a useful educational tool. Subjects
discussed range from the comprehensive assessment of chronic pain
to the multimodal management of chronic pain. It is written in a
simple and consistent style that can be easily understood and
applied to day-to-day clinical practice. This material will be an
important tool for professional exams. It is an ideal companion for
candidates who are preparing for their final exams that include the
topic of chronic pain and will help to assess their preparation and
guide appropriate revision. Questions on chronic pain appear in
written and structured oral examinations. This book will be handy
for candidates preparing for examinations conducted by the Royal
College of Anaesthetists, UK (FRCA), The College of
Anaesthesiologists of Ireland (FCAI), the European Society of
Anaesthesiology (EDAIC), the European Society of Intensive Care
Medicine (EDIC), the Australian and New Zealand College of
Anaesthetists (FANZCA), the National Board of Examinations of India
(Dip NB), and the American and Canadian board exams, as well as
other competitive exams across the globe. Candidates appearing for
advanced pain examinations will find this book useful to refresh
their knowledge on pain medicine. The authors are consultants in
pain medicine with clinical and teaching experience in university
hospitals across the UK. They regularly conduct successful pain
education courses which consistently attract good feedback. They
conduct regular final FRCA and FFPMRCA exam courses attended by
candidates from all over the country.
