- Pain Medicine
- Pediatrics
- Psychology
Background:
- Pediatric chronic pain is a growing concern in children and adolescents.
- The bio-psycho-social model is the current standard for managing chronic pain.
- An integrated approach is essential for addressing multifaceted impacts.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review various treatment modalities for pediatric chronic pain.
- To discuss management strategies in both outpatient and inpatient environments.
- To highlight the importance of a holistic, team-based approach.
Main Methods:
- Literature review of current treatment strategies.
- Analysis of the bio-psycho-social model in pediatric chronic pain.

Pain is critical to various clinical pathologies, provoking an urgent need for effective management. Pain, whether acute or chronic, is a complex neurochemical process. Its alleviation depends on the type, with nonopioid analgesics effective for mild to moderate pain, such as musculoskeletal or inflammatory pain, while neuropathic pain responds best to anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants, or serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. For severe acute or chronic pain, opioids may be...
