Physician versus patient-directed pain management after surgery – Brendan Carvalho, MD

back and hip No Comments »

Pain after surgery is traditionally management using standardized “one-size-fits-all” treatment protocols. Physicians generally select analgesic drugs and doses to treat surgical pain based on their own or institutional preference without extensive patient consultation or involvement. I will present a series of studies that we have conducted that challenges this paternalistic, standardized treatment approach. The feasibility and potential benefit of seeking input from patients regarding their personal preference for analgesic drugs and doses will be explored. Physician’s role should be to only present evidence-based pain treatment options and their potential side effects. Patient input prior to surgery can facilitate individualized perioperative pain treatment protocols based on patient’s preferences, expectations and needs. I believe this patient-centered surgical pain treatment model needs to be replace the existing “one-size-fits-all” model, and should be offered to all patients undergoing surgery.

York Circle – Chronic Pain After Surgery: Epidemiology, Risk Factors and Preventive Analgesia

York Circle - Chronic Pain After Surgery: Epidemiology, Risk Factors and Preventive Analgesia

Speaker: Dr. Joel Katz, Professor, Canada Research Chair, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Health, York University

A little appreciated fact is that every chronic pain was, at one time, acute. And yet, not all acute pains become chronic. Regardless of the cause, the vast majority of people recover and do not go on to develop long-term pain. In the case of post-surgical pain, certain procedures are followed by an alarmingly high rate of long-term discomfort and pain. In this presentation, Dr. Katz will review the epidemiology of chronic post-surgical pain including its incidence/prevalence in children and adults, identify the risk and protective factors for the development and maintenance of chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) and outline the rationale for preventive analgesia, an anesthetic approach to surgery that may reduce the likelihood of developing long-term pain after surgery. Research points to the severity of peri-operative pain as a risk factor for the development of CPSP. What must be determined is the aspect(s) of pain that is predictive and whether it is a causal risk factor. Is it something about the pain per se, or the individuals who report the pain? Will aggressive management of acute pain alter the course and decrease the incidence of chronic pain? This presentation will address these questions as they relate to the development of chronic post-surgical pain using a biopsychosocial framework.

New Approach to Pain Management after Surgery

back and hip No Comments »

A new pain relief plan during surgery is helping patients get back on their feet quickly after a procedure.

Joseph Deily, a physician’s assistant with Lee Health, says patients often fear having pain after surgery. “One of the biggest fears patients have going into surgery is, oh my goodness I’m going to have so much pain afterwards. We don’t want patients delaying their surgery because of that fear.”

A new pain management plan is now helping patients recover from surgery quickly while controlling their pain. “What the goal of multi modal pain management strategies is, is basically, lessen the side effects of opiate medications, which are narcotics,” said Deily.

The multi modal pain management plan uses different medications that have different mechanisms of action. Medication, like Tylenol, are even being utilized in the operating room. “When you use a bunch of different medications in lower doses, what we’re doing is we’re having more effective pain prevention,” said Deily.

The goal is to use fewer narcotics during and after surgery. “We know from different studies and experience the complications after surgery are increased when you’re using only opioids after surgery,” said Deily.

The new pain management lasts longer and keeps patients form feeling groggy. “The goal is to take deep breaths and walk, and if patients aren’t walking and taking deep breaths then they’re going to be susceptible to pneumonia and that’s our number one complication,” said Deily.

Controlling the pain the first few days after surgery means fewer patients will require narcotics when they go home.

Following orthopedic surgery, a dedicated group of physicians, nurses, and physician assistants from the Department of Anesthesiology will monitor your pain and ensure that it does not interfere with the early stages of rehabilitation, says Phil Wagner, MD, an anesthesiologist at HSS. Patient controlled analgesia (PCA), peripheral nerve blocks with long-lasting pain relief, and oral medications are just three ways your anesthesiologist will help you manage your pain following surgery.
