The book is designed for staff physicians, residents, nurses, professionals, and allied health care workers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis describes the advances of procedural pain management in Emergency Medicine in the Netherlands. Emergency Physicians have played an instrumental role in the introduction of procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) in the emergency department. In the first part of this thesis, the safety, efficacy, and costs of PSA performed by Emergency Physicians was assessed. This thesis demonstrates the capability of Emergency Physicians to perform safe and effective PSA in adult and pediatric patients. The presence of skilled Emergency Physicians has improved the quality, availability, and costs of advanced pain treatment in patients who need to undergo painful procedures, for example the reduction of a dislocated joint or fracture, in the emergency department. In the second part, the implementation of PSA was evaluated by assessing the skills of the providers, guideline adherence and availability of PSA in emergency departments staffed with or without Emergency Physicians. This research revealed that the availability of PSA, and adherence to PSA guidelines, was not up-to-par in the departments which had no Emergency Physicians on staff. In the last part of this thesis, new strategies for procedural pain management in the emergency department were explored. Peripheral nerve blocks performed by Emergency Physicians were compared to PSA on efficacy, safety, and length-of-stay in the emergency department. Nerve blocks appear to be a promising technique with the important advantage of a reduced length-of-stay in the emergency department. Finally, a novel audiovisual distraction tool was evaluated for use during wrist fracture reductions in adult emergency patients. A clear advantage on pain or anxiety reduction was not found. However, more research is needed to better assess its value in distinct emergency patient categories. In conclusion, Emergency Physicians have an important responsibility to ensure high-quality and safe analgesia in the emergency department. They also have the duty to keep pushing the frontier on pain management in Emergency Medicine with evidence-based research."--

Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Download or read book Pain Management in the Emergency Department Newer Modalities and Current Perspective written by Tej Prakash Sinha and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain is one of the most common complaints and yet one of the most neglected aspects of management in the emergency department. Optimal pain management is a nuanced skill which focusses on reduction of pain to an acceptable level to allow for safe discharge and return to normal activities, in addition to improving patient satisfaction and comfort during their stay in hospital. Adequate analgesia also improves physiological parameters such as heart rate and blood pressure. The aim is improving rather than eradication of pain altogether while maintaining an acceptable level of adverse effects. This chapter will discuss assessment of pain in the emergency department along with various modalities of pain management with specific focus on newer modalities including ultrasound guided regional nerve blocks. Ultrasound guided nerve blocks are associated with better analgesia and have fewer chances of drug related adverse events, especially in older patients and those with comorbidities where large doses of systemic medications are associated with a significant risk of adverse effects.
