This text is an accessible guide to the clinical problems commonly encountered in the pain clinic.
The last 25 years have witnessed major advances in our understanding of the basic mechanisms of pain and in the therapeutic options available to manage patients with chronic pain. The management of chronic pain remains a much neglected activity in many parts of the world. However, for a significant group of patients management remains difficult and 'Pain Clinic Manual' will serve as an ideal resource for any clinician involved in the management of patients with chronic pain. This is the age of evidence based medicine and the work of evaluating pain management has commenced already. The chapters in this book will help to highlight those areas in which doubt exists about the efficacy and indications for various treatments. This is a timely book which reflects the considerable experience and enthusiasm of a predominantly young group of contributors with a refreshing approch to the subject. Providing an up-to-date synopsis of current practice it will serve as an ideal resource for any doctor involved in the management of patients with chronic pain.
