Abstract
Physiatrists frequently see patients who have chronic pain, and the physiatric approach is highly relevant to pain management. This article is directed toward physiatrists who do not specialize in pain management. It discusses the epidemiology of pain in patient groups often treated by physiatrists, pathophysiologic processes underlying chronic pain, the assessment of chronic pain patients, and selected treatments for chronic pain.Entities:
