AANA J. 2003 June;71(3);206-9:"A major responsibility of the nurse anesthetist is providing adequate pain relief. Current research suggests that provider gender, as well as patient gender, may affect the clinical assessment and treatment of pain. Implications of the undertreatment of pain may be avoided if the anesthetist is aware of potential gender bias when approaching a given clinical situation." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12847944&dopt=Abstract ****************************************************** Emotional Pain Relief:"When you have a headache, you take something for it, right?

More than two-thirds of individuals with cancer will experience pain during their illness. Cancer pain is often undertreated because pain medications and other therapies are not used appropriately. Some health professionals as well as patients and families are concerned about opioid (narcotic) analgesic side effects and addiction. Undertreated cancer pain destroys the quality of life. Unrelieved pain may lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, isolation and even to thoughts of suicide." http://www.ocpi.org./f_facts.html ****************************************************** Kansas Cancer Pain Initiative (KCPI):"The Kansas Cancer Pain Initiative (KCPI) is a statewide interdisciplinary nonprofit organization which was formed to improve the quality of life in persons from Kansas with cancer.

It is usually non-inflammatory ("mechanical") in origin. It is often due simply to bad posture, incorrect lifting of heavy loads or sometimes previous injury. Often this type of back pain can be helped by exercises to strengthen back muscles, improvement of bad posture and lifting technique, and sometimes a lumbar support corset. Pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs are also used for symptom relief." http://rheumb.bham.ac.uk/back.html ****************************************************** Fibromyalgia: Post-Traumatic Fibromyalgia, Mark J. Pellegrino MD:"Doctors who treat large numbers of fibromyalgia patients report that the majority of patients say that their fibromyalgia was caused by an injury. In my own private practice, I analyzed patients with the diagnosis of fibromyalgia to determine the cause. From 1990 to 1995, 2,000 records of fibromyalgia patients were reviewed. Of those, 65% reported the onset of their symptoms of fibromyalgia after a traumatic event. Of this group, 52% of them were involved in a motor vehicle accident, 31% had work injuries, and the remaining 17% had another type of trauma; included in this category were sports injuries, recreational injuries, fractures, surgical procedures, head injuries and pregnancy. Of the post-traumatic patients involved in motor vehicle accidents, whiplash injury was the most common type of trauma."

Semin Arthritis Rheum. 2000 Feb;29(4):200-16. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=10707989&dopt=Abstract ****************************************************** Fibromyalgia following trauma: psychology or biology?:"The concept that fibromyalgia may follow trauma is currently an area of intense debate within the medical field and is driven to a large extent by social and legal issues. This article questions whether the current literature supports the notion that trauma may cause fibromyalgia and explores the relative contribution of biology and psychology in the development of and sense of disability from fibromyalgia." Curr Rev Pain. 2000;4(4):295-300. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=10953277&dopt=Abstract ****************************************************** FIBROMYALGIA, CHRONIC PAIN AND TRAUMA CONFERENCE:"About 200 delegates from around the world attended what turned out to be a fascinating and superbly organised 3-day workshop on Fibromyalgia, Chronic Pain, and Trauma." http://www.rheuma21st.com/archives/report_calin_fibromyalgia_pain_trauma.html ****************************************************** Fibromyalgia Syndrome Arising de novo from Trauma, Chiroweb.com:"Fibromyalgia syndrome (FS) is a chronic disorder involving not regions but the entire body, both above and below the waist and on both sides. It is much more prevalent in females and has generally not been associated with trauma. It has, however, been associated with more than 46 different infectious, metabolic, neurologic, and neoplastic diseases.1 In such cases it is referred to as "secondary fibromyalgia syndrome." When free-standing it is usually referred to as "primary fibromyalgia syndrome" or simply "fibromyalgia."
