Biopsychosocial Model in Pain Management course for Medical Doctors
This session explains why the biopsychosocial model is more suited to the management of chronic pain than acute pain.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Identify the factors that lead to pain and suffering
- Recognize the interaction of mood and chronic pain
The biopsychosocial model has evolved as a way to characterize all of the aspects of the complex problem of chronic pain.
Patients with long-term pain conditions frequently have psychosocial and behavioural components in addition to their physical symptoms.
