Track: Orthopedic Pain Management and Anesthesia
Perioperative pain management directly affects patient comfort, mobilization, and recovery. This session connects to themes explored in orthopedic rehabilitation and physiotherapy, examining current evidence-based approaches to pain control.
Key Topics and Highlights:
Multimodal Pain Management Strategies: Combining non-opioid analgesics with regional anesthesia reduces reliance on any single medication class. This subtopic reviews current evidence supporting multimodal protocols.
Regional Anesthesia and Peripheral Nerve Blocks: The nerve block technique significantly affects postoperative pain scores and mobilization, connecting to outcomes in hip and knee arthroplasty. This subtopic covers current approaches.
Local Infiltration Analgesia: This technique offers a practical alternative to peripheral blockade in certain contexts. This subtopic compares effectiveness across surgical settings.
Opioid Stewardship in Orthopedic Surgery: Reducing opioid prescribing without compromising pain control remains a public health priority. This subtopic addresses institutional strategies for safer prescribing.
Managing Chronic Post-Surgical Pain: A subset of patients experience persistent pain following surgery. This subtopic explores risk factors and management strategies for this complication.
If your research advances perioperative pain management, we welcome you to submit an abstract and contribute to improving the patient experience throughout surgical recovery.
