Abstract

This thesis explores chronic pain associated with whiplash trauma, specifically focusing on the underlying mechanisms and potential treatment strategies. It addresses the lack of clinical guidelines for chronic whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) and investigates the efficacy of various analgesic drugs through experimental pain techniques. The research involves assessing deep tissue sensitivity using electrical, mechanical, and chemical stimuli. Key findings suggest that multiple mechanisms, including central sensitization and peripheral nociception, contribute to chronic WAD. The work emphasizes the importance of early intervention and enhanced pain management strategies. Targeted at medical professionals and researchers, the thesis aims to advance understanding of chronic pain management in WAD patients.

Abstract

Psychosocial Interventions for Chronic Pain In Search of Evidence Ranjan Roy, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg Although much of medical practice is research driven, the same cannot be said about the psychosocial interventions for chronic pain and illness. Psychological therapy for pain is dominated by cognitive-behavior therapy, which is demonstrably effective in a significant proportion of chronic pain sufferers. There is a clear need to broaden the base of psychosocial therapies for treating this hugely suffering population. Psychosocial Interventions for Chronic Pain goes a long way to correct the situation by examining the empirical bases of patient problems as well as offering evidence-supported approaches to their management. Ranjan Roy’s introductory chapters explain how effectiveness is measured in psychosocial practice, and these concepts are clearly applied in compelling case examples, including: Family and couple therapy for longstanding pain issues. Psychodynamic psychotherapy in a case of abuse and chronic pain. Interpersonal psychotherapy for identity issues following a hysterectomy. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for "immobilizing" pain. Grief therapy following catastrophic loss. Multidisciplinary approaches to complex chronic pain. Psychosocial Interventions for Chronic Pain brings a useful framework of ideas to all health and mental health professionals working with chronic pain patients, including psychologists, social workers, physicians, and nurses. The book’s evidence-based orientation also makes it a valid text for specialized graduate courses on pain management.

Abstract

In diesem Buch werden die sprachlichen Möglichkeiten für den Ausdruck von Schmerz im Deutschen analysiert. Die Studie basiert sowohl auf schriftsprachlichen Daten als auch auf Gesprächsdaten, die aus Arzt-Patienten-Gesprächen und aus Gesprächen mit Schmerzpatientinnen stammen. Bei der Auswertung des umfangreichen Datenkorpus werden die Methoden der Construction Grammar und der Gesprächsanalyse miteinander verbunden. Im ersten Teil der Untersuchung werden mit Methoden der Rahmensemantik (Frame Semantics) und der Construction Grammar die syntaktischen Konstruktionen beschrieben, die im Deutschen zum Ausdruck von körperlichem Schmerz zur Verfügung stehen, wie z. B. "Ich habe Schmerzen" oder "Mein Bein tut weh". Im zweiten Teil wird der Gebrauch dieser Schmerzkonstruktionen im Gespräch analysiert. Dabei wird systematisch geprüft, in welcher Weise die gesamten sprachlichen Möglichkeiten beim Ausdruck körperlicher Schmerzen im Gespräch genutzt werden und wie sie sequenziell eingeordnet werden können. Zum Schluss werden die Muster bei der mündlichen Darstellung chronischer Schmerzen untersucht. Dieser letzte Teil ist in erster Linie auch für Mediziner und andere sprachwissenschaftliche Laien von Interesse. The study analyses the linguistic means for expressing pain in German. Based on written and oral data, mainly from conversations between doctors and patients, the study analyses the grammatical constructions (e.g. "Ich habe Schmerzen" [I have pain] or "Mein Bein tut weh" [My leg hurts]) and develops the patterns deployed by patients with chronic pain to describe their pain in discourse. This interdisciplinary study is directed towards linguists, medics and non-experts with an interest in language; it combines methods from grammar, semantics and conversational analysis, and its results are read in the context of medical literature.

Abstract

On estime qu’au Québec et au Canada, un individu sur cinq souffre de douleur chronique. Or, la preuve n’est plus à faire : le modèle de soins traditionnel, qui se concentre exclusivement sur la maladie, est ici particulièrement mal adapté. Comme c’est le cas pour d’autres affections chroniques, l’approche la plus efficace se révèle être interdisciplinaire, soutenue, intégrée, centrée sur le patient. L’amélioration de la prise en charge passera par l’établissement d’un nouveau dialogue entre chercheurs, cliniciens et patients, qui permettra de prendre en compte tous les enjeux de la douleur, en dépassant le cadre proprement médical. Le temps est venu de « repenser la douleur ». C’est dans cette perspective que s’est tenu en septembre 2007, à Montréal, le premier Colloque francophone sur la douleur. Le présent ouvrage est adapté des interventions d’experts issus de disciplines habituellement sollicitées, comme la médecine, les sciences infirmières, la psychologie, la neurophysiologie ou la biologie, et d’autres spécialités plus inattendues, comme la bio-éthique, le droit, la philosophie et la sociologie. Ces textes accessibles et éclairants et les quatre discussions thématiques qui les accompagnent font l’état des lieux de la recherche sur la douleur chronique, saisi à l’occasion d’une rencontre marquante dans l’histoire d’un domaine en pleine évolution.
