The Comprehensive Review of Pain Medicine online CME program addresses the challenge of effective, safe, and timely relief of acute or chronic pain with in-depth insights into evolving viewpoints of opioid analgesics, pain practice management, clinical updates, advances in pain physiology, spine technology, and neuromodulation.
Multidisciplinary speakers are experienced clinicians and teachers who offer not only practical recommendations, but also ways to integrate empathy and an understanding of the mechanism of pain. The sessions in this continuing medical education course highlight both existing and emerging evidence-based clinical strategies in the behavioral, pharmacological, and physical sciences. Key take-home points include:

Limiting the Opioid Supply – Are Our Communities Safer?
Psychotherapies for Pain – Underused But Effective
Opioids and Perioperative Pain Management – A Reassessment
Neuromodulation – Moving Past the Epidural Space
Appropriate Prescribing and the Pharmacist’s Obligation.
Restorative Neurostimulation for Refractory, Mechanical, Nociceptive Chronic Low Back Pain
And more…

Learning Objectives
At the completion of this course, you should be able to:

Name non-pharmacological therapies for back pain
Explain ways to treat patients with co-morbid substance use disorder and chronic pain in the acute setting and the chronic setting
List the benefits of virtual reality versus procedural sedation
Identify genes that affect analgesic/anesthetic pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
Discuss perioperative interventions to prevent or reduce the chance of long-term use of opioids postoperatively
Compare the benefits of dorsal root ganglion stimulation versus epidural stimulation
Compare spinal cord stimulation versus targeted drug delivery for chronic pain
List the advantages of minimally invasive lumbar decompression and interspinous decompression
