  • To emphasize the integration of nociception, behavioral, and suffering components in treatment planning.

Main Methods:

  • The study advocates for a thorough behavioral evaluation prior to treatment planning.
  • Treatment plans should be meticulously detailed and presented during a dedicated planning visit.
