HUGE IMPACT OF CR. PAIN
 Chronic pain is clearly a major health care
problem in USA.
 Significant and costly problem in developed
country and
 Throughout the industrialized world as well
 One third of total health care cost are
involved in managing chronic pain
management
CHRONIC PAIN
Long lasting pain
Persist beyond the usual course of an acute
illness/injury(3-6 month since onset)
Associated with a pattern of recurrence
Invariably associated with chronic pathology
Often accompanied with emotional symptoms
DISEASES/SYMPTOM?
Pain perception is the normal
physiological responds
Only non adapting sensory
responds of the body.
PAIN PERCEPTION IN CHRONIC PAIN
Most of the investigators
considered Chronic pain as a
separate disease
Allodynia and Hyperalgesia
Parvated form pain responds
ALODYNIA
Experience of pain perception to
a stimulus which is normally
not painful.
Abnormal nociceptive responds
of neuron.
Sensitization
HYPERALGASIA
Abnormally increase pain
perception to a stimulus
which is normally painful
but not so much.
Hypersensitivity response
of nociceptive nerve
WHY & HOW DOES IT
HAPPEN
Sensitization
STATIONS OF PAIN
PATHWAY
acute
Peripheral pain
Soft tissue damage
Trauma,accident,
Response well with
analgesics,cold,rest,massa
ge etc
chronic
Central
Connective tissue.nerve,
disc,joints,ligaments,cartilages etc
Sequel of acute or chronic denovo
Usually does not responds with
analgesic alone
Table 2. Clinical Differentiations between Acute and Chronic Pain
Acute Pain Chronic Pain
Cause Usually obvious tissue damage,Pheripheral Multiple causes
(malignancy,benign CTD)
Onset Distinct onset Gradual or distinct onset.
Duration Short, well characterized duration Persists after 3-6 months of
healing
Termination Resolves with healing Can be a symptom or
diagnosis
Purpose Serves a protective function Serves no adaptive purpose
CHRONIC PAIN
Long lasting pain
Persist beyond the usual course of an acute
illness/injury(3-6 month since onset)
Associated with a pattern of recurrence
Invariably associated with chronic pathology
Often accompanied with emotional symptoms
CHRONIC PAIN
Unresolved acute pain.
Persist beyond the usual course of an acute
illness/injury(3-6 month since onset)
Associated with a pattern of recurrence
Invariably associated with chronic pathology
Often accompanied with emotional symptoms
ACUTE PAINFULL CONDITION WAS NOT
TREATED ADEQUATELY ?
Why unresolved? Or persistent?
Undertreated severe acute pain has
dangerous consequences
•Number of harmful physiological and psy
chological effects
•Emotional and physical suffering; • •.
UNDERTREATED ACUTE SEVERE PAIN
HAS A DANGEROUS CONSEQUENCES
Chronic
Pain
• Sleep disturbance
• Cardiovascular effects
• Impaired bowel movement.
• Effects on respiratory function
• Delayed mobilization
• Delayed wound healing
• Increase incidence of post
surgical pain syndrome(PSPS)

STRATEGIES OF MANAGEMENT
Adequate and aggressive management of acute pain
With its aetiology
Primary factors
Precipitating factors
Psycho social factors
Biopscychosocial approach:
CONTROVERSIES IN ANALGESIC USE
 Controversial
 Masking the diagnosis
 After diagnosis it can use for short period of time
 Combination of central and peripheral acting analgesic are
superiority to non combined analgesic.
 Act good when prescribed with neuromodulating drugs
CENTRALLY ACTING
DRUGS
 Antidepressant:a
Amitriptyline,TCA depressant,SNRIs,Mirtazipine,
Nortriptylin
 Anticonvulsants:
Gabapentin, Pregabalin. Tegretol
 Opioids:Morphin,Pethidine,Oximorphin,Methadones
 Opioids like drugs:
Nelbuphin,Tramadol,Phentanyl,tapentadol
 Centrally acting muscle relaxant
NON PHARMACOLOGICAL
TREATMENT
