Acute Pain Management: A Practical Guide, Fourth Edition 4th Edition

by Pamela E. Macintyre (Author), Stephan A. Schug (Author)

Highly Commended, BMA Medical Book Awards 2015

Comprehensive acute pain management no longer means only caring for patients with pain resulting from postoperative and trauma-related causes―it now includes managing patients with acute pain arising from a wide variety of conditions.

Acute Pain Management: A Practical Guide provides health professionals with simple and practical information to help them manage patients with acute pain safely and effectively. The book also helps them to identify and manage acute pain in more complex patients, for whom effective treatment can be challenging.

In this new edition, chapters have been revised and updated, often extensively, to reflect current knowledge and practice. This resource will undoubtedly be helpful to a variety of professionals in assessing and managing acute pain.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is the fourth edition of a practical guide to acute pain management, and the first edition that includes access to an ebook version. ... This is a handy resource for anyone who takes care of patients in pain, regardless of the setting. The authors are experienced clinicians who have been writing about this subject for a long time. ... There are others books on acute pain management, but they tend to focus more on theory than on practice. This one provides the nitty-gritty details of pain management that are expected to be taught at the bedside but often are not."
―Tariq M. Malik, MD, University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine in Doody's Book Reviews

"This exceptional book incorporates a conglomerate of evidence about acute pain. Outstanding is the concise format which makes it very usable for clinicians."
―Prof. Esther Pogatzki-Zahn, MD, Department of Anesthesiology, University Hospital Muenster, Germany
