Pain Management: Perioperative Acute Pain and Chronic Pain Syndromes

Bashir Ahmed Bulbulia, Azeemah Bulbulia

Acute pain occurs with tissue damage. Chronic pain is of long duration and involves neuronal plasticity. Pain is objectively measured and treatment models for acute and chronic pain involve an integrated approach with different emphasis. Pain adequately managed improves morbidity and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) and is a driver for cost saving. Pain has wide-ranging impact on the sufferer’s quality of life affecting the following aspects of daily living: sleep, behavior and mood as well as the ability to function fully to participate and enjoy work, family life and social activities.
