Pain Matters Magazine 71 Edizione posteriore

In a change of format, we have handed the editing reins over to the team at the Scottish National Residential Pain Management Programme, who will be giving us an insight into their work and how it differs from traditional pain management programmes. Combining patient testimonies and analyses of the different clinical approaches, this issue delves deeply into the multi-faceted world of pain management.

Also in Pain Matters 71, our own Paul Evans, producer of Airing Pain, discusses Pain Concern's Navigator Tool, an online tool which attempts to bridge the communication gap between doctor and patient, helping them to 'sing off the same hymn sheet'. An essential solution in today's fast-paced world where GP appointments can be over and done with in ten minutes or less.

We plan on continuing the concept of bringing more guest editors on board in forthcoming issues of Pain Matters, to cover all aspects of chronic pain from pain management teams around the country.
