Pain Management
The rotation in pain management teaches
the residents the principles and practice of acute, chronic, and
cancer pain management. During this rotation residents
participate in evaluating patients, formulating differential
diagnoses and treatment plans, performing diagnostic and therapeutic
nerve blocks, and interacting with referring physicians in the role
of a consultant.
A dedicated procedure room, equipped
with fluoroscopy, is reserved for use by the pain service.
More involved procedures are performed in this room, while simpler
procedures may be performed in one of the treatment rooms located
within the pain clinic.
