Learning Objectives:

• Address contemporary pain science • Learn communication strategies to better navigate difficult

conversations about pain and to redirect a treatment plan that addresses the 5 key domains of best-practice pain care

• Understand the role of pain science in opioid prescribing, deprescribing and pain care treatment

• Learn about Oregon state’s free resources for pain education and treatment and apply tools to more effectively screen, educate and provide care for patients with persistent pain

Mary’s thoughts“My life is unmanageable.”

“Medication is the only thing that helps me.”

“I have degeneration in my knee. I need to take it easy because of my pain, it’s not safe for me to do very much.”

“My pain is terrible and it will never get better.”

10% with no arthritis on xray have severe pain!!

Half of people with severe arthritis in the knee have no symptoms

• PT First: $4793 less per episode of care than radiology first (Fritz 2011 n=406)

PAIN AND THREAT DETECTION

• EMERGENCY VEHICLE IMAGE

Key Domains:Understanding painKey concepts

• Pain is a multi-dimensional experience• This means the care plan must look at the entire person• All chosen treatments are equally important.

• All pain is real pain

• Nociception is neither necessary nor sufficient for pain

• PAIN ≠ HARMAdapted from material from G. Lorimer Moseley: Understand and Explain Pain course material 2010

Key Domains:Understanding painKey strategies

• Pain Care Toolbox• Use of different phrasing and language• Consider implications of ordering radiological studies• Videos, written material, possible referral to a Pain PT

or OT


toolbox.aspx

Key Domains:Understanding painMessages

“Your pain is very real.”“Your pain can change.”“Understanding pain helps make sense out of it and gives you a better sense of how you can take action to change.” • PAIN ≠ HARM


toolbox.aspx

Key Domains:Understanding painMore Messages

• “Sore but safe.”• “Motion is lotion.”• “This is a process, be patient with yourself”• “Your pain can change, there are many things that we

can explore together. I am here to be your support and be your coach. You are the one who can make the changes.”

• “Neuroplasticity got you into this, and neuroplasticity can get you out of it.”

Key Domains:ActivityKey concepts

• Activity improves sleep• Activity reorganizes the sensory cortex to decrease

pain• Conditioning, mobility and strength will make daily

tasks easier and less threatening


toolbox.aspx

Key Domains:ActivityKey strategies

• Pain Care Toolbox• “Doing more” is more important than exercise• Gentle global movement, tai chi, therapeutic yoga,

aquatic exercise, mindful movement, PT, OT• Encourage all gains no matter how small • Think Neuroplasticity

• Increase sensory input• Increase pleasurable activities


toolbox.aspx

Key domain: ActivityMessages

• Gradual return to activity “Start low, go slow, keep going.”

• Pacing – “Work smarter, not harder.”• Doing more is more important than “exercising”• Expect flare ups and learn to manage them with

pacing• “You are sore but safe”• “Motion is lotion”

Key Domain:MoodKey concepts

• Pain response and stress response linked • Cortisol and pro-inflammatory cytokines release:

• Decrease in tissue regeneration, immune function and metabolic controlswhich can increase pain

• Mood and pain inter-relate:• Depression and isolation • Anxiety• PTSD and history of trauma• Complex grief

• Pleasurable activities decrease pain by redirecting attention and through elevation in mood the focus on pain

Key Domain:MoodMessages

“It’s really normal to feel down when you live with pain• ANDDepression, anxiety, PTSD, history of trauma, complex grief, isolation and stress can impact pain”“Finding ways to lift your mood is an important part of our pain care plan for you.”

Nutrition – Key DomainKey points


toolbox.aspx

Nutrition:Key message

• It might be more helpful to think about adding in foods that are high in important nutrition, than to worry as much about stopping other foods.

“What we eat can throw fuel on the pain, affect energy level & make us feel worse. Foods that are rich in nutrients like fruits and vegetables are like water on the fire.”

Nutrition – Key DomainStrategies

• Pain Care Toolbox

• Explore knowledge of healthy eating and cooking

• Encourage positive changes rather than focusing on negative aspects

• Avoid the term “diet”
