Integrative Approaches in Chronic Pain Management

The prevalence of patients suffering from chronic pain seeking help from General Practitioners (GPs) is alarmingly high, with approximately 40% of patients affected. This substantial patient burden places significant demands on the workload of GPs. It is evident from extensive research that there is an urgent need for effective solutions to address this growing problem. Equally important is the comprehensive education of medical practitioners in primary care health settings to equip them with the knowledge and skills necessary to improve patient outcomes. This on demand course will explore the importance of adopting an integrative approach to address the complex medical condition of chronic pain. We will explore various evidence-based approaches to pain management, including pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and psychological interventions. Learn how to tailor treatment plans to individual patient needs and develop effective strategies for patient management.
