A preoperative interdisciplinary biopsychosocial opioid reduction program in patients on chronic opioid analgesia prior to spine surgery: A preliminary report and case series
Tập 13 Số 1 - Trang 27-31 - 2016
Abstract Background Spine surgery candidates are commonly treated with long-term
opioid analgesia. However, chronic opioid analgesia is associated with poor pain
control, psychological distress, decreased functional status and operative
complications. Therefore, our medical centre piloted an outpatient
biopsychosocial interdisciplinary opioid reduction program for spine surgery
candidates on chron...
Hospitalization due to acute exacerbation of chronic pain: An intervention study in a university hospital
Tập 17 - Trang 345-349 - 2017
Abstract Background and aims Hospitalization as a result of acute exacerbation
of complex chronic pain is a largely hidden problem, as patients are often
admitted to hospital under a variety of specialities, and there is frequently no
overarching inpatient chronic pain service dedicated to their management. Our
institution had established an inpatient acute pain service overseen by pain
physicians...
A meta-analysis of fear-avoidance and pain intensity: The paradox of chronic pain
Tập 13 - Trang 43-58 - 2016
Abstract Background The fear-avoidance model of chronic pain has established
avoidance as a predictor of negative outcomes in chronic pain patients.
Avoidance, or deliberate attempts to suppress or prevent unwanted experiences
(e.g., pain), has been studied extensively, with multiple reviews implicating
this behavior as a predictor of disability, physical disuse, and depression.
Despite hundreds o...
The mediating role of catastrophizing in the relationship between pain intensity and depressed mood in older adults with persistent pain: A longitudinal analysis
Tập 11 - Trang 157-162 - 2016
Abstract Background and aims Depression is common in older adults with
persistent pain. Cognitive-behavioural models of pain propose that the
relationship between pain and depression is influenced or mediated by
interpretations of events (cognitions), rather than by the event itself. Almost
exclusively, the evidence for this position has come from studies of people aged
less than 65 years. The rol...
A longitudinal exploration of pain tolerance and participation in contact sports
Tập 16 - Trang 36-44 - 2017
Abstract Background/aims Athletes who choose to engage in contact sports do so
with the knowledge that participation will bring pain in the form of contact
with others, injury, and from exertion. Whilst athletes who play contact sports
have been shown to have higher pain tolerance than those who do not, it is
unclear whether this is a result of habituation over time, or as a result of
individual d...
Synergistic combinations of the dual enkephalinase inhibitor PL265 given orally with various analgesic compounds acting on different targets, in a murine model of cancer-induced bone pain
Tập 14 - Trang 25-38 - 2017
Abstract Background The first line pharmacological treatment of cancer pain is
morphine and surrogates but a significant pain relief and a reduction of the
side-effects of these compounds makes it necessary to combine them with other
drugs acting on different targets. The aim of this study was to measure the
antinociceptive effect on cancer-induced bone pain resulting from the
association of the e...
Experimental design and reporting standards for improving the internal validity of pre-clinical studies in the field of pain: Consensus of the IMI-Europain consortium
Tập 7 - Trang 58-70 - 2015
AbstractBackground and aimsPain is a subjective experience, and as such,
pre-clinical models of human pain are highly simplified representations of
clinical features. These models are nevertheless critical for the delivery of
novel analgesics for human pain, providing pharmacodynamic measurements of
activity and, where possible, on-target confirmation of that activity. It has,
however, been sugges...
The disruptive effects of pain on multitasking in a virtual errands task
Tập 16 - Trang 29-35 - 2017
Abstract Background and aims Pain is known to have a disruptive effect on
cognitive performance, but prior studies have used highly constrained laboratory
tasks that lack ecological validity. In everyday life people are required to
complete more complex sets of tasks, prioritising task completion and recalling
lists of tasks which need to be completed, and these tasks continue to be
attempted duri...
Mechanistic, translational, quantitative pain assessment tools in profiling of pain patients and for development of new analgesic compounds
Tập 4 - Trang 226-230 - 2013
Abstract Background Mechanistic, translational, human experimental pain
assessment technologies (pain bio markers) can be used for: (1) profiling the
responsiveness of various pain mechanisms and pathways in healthy volunteers and
pain patients, and (2) profiling the effect of new or existing analgesic drugs
or pain management procedures. Translational models, which may link mechanisms
in animals ...
A population based study of the prevalence of pain in Iceland
Tập 1 - Trang 151-157 - 2010
Abstract Prevalence estimates of pain differ depending on how it is defined and
measured and on the populations studied. It has been estimated that on a given
day, as many as 30–44% of the general population experience some kind of pain.
Information about the prevalence of pain in Iceland is not available. The aims
of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of pain of various origins among
the ...
