Role of psychology in pain management
Open accessAbstract
Psychological factors are central to the experience of pain, the delivery of effective analgesia and for the specific treatment of chronic pain and disability. Improvement in pain management can often be brought about by very simple, if subtle, changes in clinical practice. Although simple, these changes can have significant effects in the experience of pain, distress and use of health-care resources. For the chronic pain patient, the presentation is much more complex and the treatment interdisciplinary and programmatic. The evidence for the effectiveness of cognitive behaviour therapy for adults with chronic pain is now well established. This treatment should be available as a core part of any chronic pain service.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
