Abstract:
Chronic post-sternotomy pain (PSP) is a well-known complication of cardiac surgery that is associated with increased morbidity. The lack of adequate pain relief can compromise the patients’ rehabilitation trajectory and diminish their quality of life. Various factors have been identified that contribute to the development and maintenance of PSP. Local and systemic pain management modalities have been identified to mitigate this condition. It is important to conduct a careful history and exam in these patients in order to rule out other causes of pain and properly guide the patient’s management

Abstract:
This chapter argues for extending models of chronic pain within an explicit goal and self-regulatory perspective. A self-regulatory perspective allows one to conceptualize pain as an experience that occurs within the real-life context comprising multiple goals. The chapter presents two fictitious cases, which will be used throughout the chapter to clarify goal concepts. Next, it outlines the possible interrelations between goals, after which it specifically focuses on goal conflict and its role in pain. The chapter then provides a definition and overview of the literature on goal frustration a

Abstract:
With improved surveillance, diagnoses, and treatment of patients with cancer, an increased life expectancy, and specifically an increased number of ‘cancer cured’ patients, is noted. However, the long-term effects of the disease and treatment have a bearing on obtaining optimal physical, psychological, and cognitive functioning for cancer survivors. Pain impacts on all dimensions of quality of life and is one of the most distressing symptoms for patients. Patients often under-recognize pain and are unsure if optimum pain control is achievable.

Abstract:
Up to 53% of patients with chronic nonmalignant pain demonstrate medication nonadherence, and many are nonadherent with behavior-change interventions for pain, presenting a significant challenge to providers managing this population and compromising patient-reported outcomes related to treatment efficacy, symptom control, and quality of life. Patients with chronic pain are often highly complex and present with numerous medical and psychological comorbidities. Many of these comorbidities, including mood, sleep, and substance use disorders, in addition to maladaptive coping with pain and varied

Abstract:
The use of painkillers ranging from simple analgesics to strong opioids is a common feature in the acute pain management of haematological conditions. However, each disease also has its own specific aetiological factors for pain, requiring specific treatment. Haematological patients with chronic pain on long-term opioid therapy may require multidisciplinary pain management to improve quality of life and prevent chronic escalation of opioid doses. Intramuscular injections should be avoided in all patients. The use of pethidine (meperidine) is not recommended.

Abstract:
Chronic pain is associated strongly with poor quality of life. Drug treatments for pain can be problematic; with the understanding that chronic pain syndromes often involve derangement of homeostasis, there is an increased interest in applying nonpharmacological metabolic therapies. This chapter surveys clinical and animal research into the effects of fasting, calorie restriction, ketogenic diet, and polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on pain. These dietary treatments can significantly ameliorate pain in inflammatory and neuropathic disorders. The choice among these treatments might de

Abstract:
Pain is among the most salient of experiences, while also, curiously, being among the most malleable. A large body of research has revealed that a multitude of explicit strategies can be used to effectively alter the attention-demanding quality of acute and chronic pains and their associated neural correlates. However, thoughts that are spontaneous, rather than actively generated, are common in daily life, and so attention to pain can often temporally fluctuate because of ongoing self-generated experiences. Classic pain theories have largely neglected to account for unconstrained fluctuations

Neuropathic pain may be present in up to 40% of cancer patients and may persist independently of the cancer and affect the quality of life in disease-free cancer survivors. Particular surgical treatment and chemotherapy may cause chronic persistent neuropathic pain in cancer survivors. The diagnosis of neuropathic pain can be challenging and requires documentation of a nervous system lesion and pain in areas of sensory changes. The pharmacological t

Abstract:
Pain created by surgery has the ability to produce both structural and functional changes in pain pathways. These changes may be reduced if timely and adequate pain relief is delivered to the patient. Poor control of pain can result in remodeling of the “hardwired” pathways involved in pain transmission, which can result in central sensitization and hyperalgesia. Furthermore, poorly controlled pain and delay in its recognition may lead to a chronic pain state, further complicating the patient’s recovery and quality of life.

Because pain is in part an affective experience, investigators over the past several decades have sought to elaborate the nature of pain-affect connections. Our evolving understanding of the intersection of pain and affect is especially relevant to intervention efforts designed to enhance the quality of life and functional health of individuals managing chronic pain. This chapter describes how pain influences arousal of the vigilance/defensive and appetitive/approach motivational systems and thus the affective health of chronic pain patients.

Abstract:
The importance of chronic illness has brought a new focus on patient-reported outcomes of clinical care. Health-Related Qualify of Life (HRQL) is a new goal for clinical care that combines a physician’s view of health as an objective biological fact and the patient’s view of health as a subjective experiential state. The diagnosis of an impersonal and objective disease separable from the patient arose after the French Revolution and helped to delimit the new right to health care. But objective mortality and morbidity metrics are not adequate for capturing the burden of chronic illness. HRQL wa

Abstract:
Severe, uncontrolled pain remains common in populations with serious or life-threatening illness. Despite the availability of oral opioid therapy in most developed countries, an estimated 10-30% of people with advanced cancer have inadequate pain control. Published guidelines endorse the view that these patients should be considered for procedural, or so-called interventional, pain therapies. Generally accepted indications for interventional pain therapies include (a) uncontrolled pain despite systemic analgesics and (b) unacceptable systemic analgesic adverse effects.
