Description
According to the National Institutes of Health, pain affects more Americans than diabetes, heart disease, and cancer combined. (1) In addition, a survey by the National Center for Health Statistics (2006) revealed that 2% of adults experienced pain lasting more than 24 hours in the prior month, 10% experienced the same pain for a year or more, and chronic pain is the most common cause of long-term disability. (2) From assessment and basic treatment, to preventive and rehab maintenance, the "whole" person should be taken into consideration in regard to pain management. This involves a multidisciplinary approach in helping restore patients to their maximum functionality while ensuring that they have little or no pain or that the pain is reduced to a level that is acceptable.
