Abstract

The purpose of the guideline is to provide evidence-based recommendations on nonsurgical interventions for chronic primary LBP (CPLBP) in adults, including older people, that can be delivered in primary and community care settings to improve CPLBP-related health and well-being outcomes. For this reason, the guideline does not consider interventions typically delivered in secondary or tertiary care settings (e.g. surgical or other invasive procedures) or workplace interventions. The target audience is health workers of all disciplines working in the primary and community care settings. In this context, the guideline is intended to be discipline neutral. The guidelines will be of use to clinical staff including medical doctors, nurses, allied health workers including chiropractors, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, pharmacists, psychologists and community health workers, as well as public health programme and system managers.

Abstract

This dissertation by Martin Södermark explores the integration of emotion regulation strategies and mindfulness-based interventions to enhance Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for patients suffering from chronic pain and emotional distress. The research comprises three experimental studies that examine the efficacy of a tailored hybrid treatment combining CBT and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). The findings show that this hybrid approach provides significant long-term benefits in reducing pain interference and symptoms of depression. Additionally, the studies investigate the role of attentional focus during mindfulness exercises in managing pain. The results suggest that integrating emotion regulation strategies with CBT can improve treatment outcomes for patients with chronic pain and emotional issues. This work is aimed at healthcare professionals and researchers interested in advanced therapeutic interventions for pain management.

Abstract

As lifespans increase, more people around the world find themselves victims of chronic pain. In spite of this, treatment options continue to be severely limited. Anti-inflammatory drugs can only do so much, while painkillers like opioids have led to crippling addictions and fatal overdoses. The subject of the book is the role of immune cells, including glial cells, and neuroimmune interactions in chronic pain. The book begins by examining the preclinical and clinical evidence supporting the involvement of non-neuronal cells in chronic pain. It discusses the interactions between non-neuronal cells and neurons in the regulation of chronic pain. It then presents the implications of these findings, including promising and emerging treatments such as specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs, such as resolvins and protectins), immune cell therapy, and complementary and alternative medicine, as well as neuromodulation and regenerative medicine, which may prove to be the turning point for hundreds of millions of patients world-wide who struggle to escape from the shadow of chronic pain. The book presents ground-breaking research that will alter current perspectives on chronic pain.

Abstract

The book is a medical dissertation exploring the feasibility and effectiveness of Internet-delivered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (IACT) for Chronic Pain. The author, Nina Bendelin, investigates the potential of IACT as a supplemental treatment to Interdisciplinary Pain Rehabilitation Programs (IPRP). The book is based on different methodological approaches including qualitative analysis, controlled effectiveness trial, and science. It discusses patient experiences, implementation challenges, and potential improvements for treatment engagement. The book aims to contribute to the understanding of IACT in the context of chronic pain management, targeting health professionals and students in the medical field.

Abstract

Acute and chronic pain are common among service members, with musculoskeletal pain and injuries being the leading cause of nondeployability among active-duty service members. Given the significant implications for individual health and force readiness, providing high-quality pain care to service members is a priority of the Military Health System (MHS). Prior RAND research used administrative data to assess the quality and safety of pain care and opioid prescribing in the MHS, generated a set of quality measures that the MHS could adopt going forward, and identified strengths and opportunities for improvement in care provided to service members with pain conditions. In this report, authors document findings from interviews with MHS administrators, providers, and patients, providing valuable detail and context for those findings, along with on-the-ground perspectives on MHS pain care policies and guidance in practice. Staff and patients recommended prioritizing increases in treatment access and availability to improve pain care, and patients emphasized effective treatment and patient-centered care as the most important facilitators of high-quality pain care.

Abstract

'How We Hurt' explores the origins and evolution of the ongoing opioid overdose epidemic in North America, focusing specifically on how a shifting politics of pain paved the way for the current crisis. Using archival and qualitative research, Melina Sherman traces the history of pain and reveals how the opioid crisis has evolved alongside new conceptions of addiction that condition whose pain is seen as legitimate and whose is not.
