Pain medicine : an interdisciplinary case-based approach / edited by Salim M. Hayek, Binit J. Shah, Mehul J. Desai, and Thomas C. Chelimsky.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

'Pain Medicine' approaches the management of common chronic pain conditions using a unique interdisciplinary approach focusing on multiple facets of patients' clinical presentations. The comprehensive discussions in each chapter are centred on a vignette that mimics a fairly typical case presentation. In addition to detailed classical descriptions of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, prognosis, and confounding psychosocial factors of each disease entity, it provides various interdisciplinary management approaches.
