About this book

Written in a succinct format, this book presents a variety of pain conditions seen in acute or sub-acute rehabilitation hospitals and in outpatient clinical settings. Bio-medical and bio-psychosocial perspectives, as well as theory, clinical practice, and practical aspects of managing pain are offered throughout this volume.  Chapters are organized by sections, beginning with an introduction to pain as well use of the multi-disciplinary treatment approach. Additional sections cover headache management,  pain diagnostics, medication management, rehabilitation, injections and procedures, behavioral management, complementary and alternative medicine, neuromoduation, neuroablation, surgical management of pain, and novel techniques.  Business and legal perspectives of pain medicine are also addressed.

Comprehensive Pain Management in the Rehabilitation Patient is a handy resource for any medical, interventional, surgical, rehabilitative, behavioral, or allied health provider who treats pain across the rehabilitation continuum.

Reviews

“This textbook accomplishes its goal of being comprehensive by covering multiple topics as it pertains to the physiatrist in training and those in their early years of practice. … Unlike other pain textbooks, this book does provide more detail on physical therapy, occupational therapy, and aqua therapy programs … . For anesthesiologists practicing pain management, this book can serve as a quick reference guide on such treatment modalities when managing patients with acute and chronic pain … .” (Paul D. Weyker and Christopher A. J. Webb, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol.127 (1), July, 2018)
