Synopsis

Conventional medical practice leaves some pain unrevealed. This pain can become chronic and its management has become a new specialty in medicine. This book provides an account of how to deal with the major chronic pain syndromes, including back pain, body and myofacial pain, malignant diseases, neurogenic pain and headaches. It covers the background knowledge required in practice and gives advice on managing patients who suffer chronic pain. The book is not designed as a techinical manual but seeks to provide the practical information required for effective pain management.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

The authors are to be congratulated for encompassing so much valuable and clinically applicable information into such a small space...Whatever their speciality and profession, the wisdom and good advice contained in these relatively few pages will benefit the reader, not only once but each time it is perused. (Palliative Medicine)

`The book is written clearly and in a relatively jargon-free style. There is also reference to research material. It should certainly be accessible to the registered nurse involved in chronic pain management.'
