State-of-the-Art Regenerative Approaches to Treating Chronic Pain



Credits: None available.

Learning Objectives

As a result of participating in this activity, learners will be better able to:

  • Apply a greater understanding of neuroimmune interactions to address neuropathic pain
  • Influence disease process through neuroimmune modulation
  • Select patients who are likely to benefit from regenerative medicine procedures

Overview

Reviewing how chronic pain, opioid therapy, and regenerative medicine impact neuro-inflammation

  • Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
  • Autologous Conditioned Serum
  • Cell-derived products
  • How mesenchymal stem cell therapies have demonstrated inhibit neuropathic pain, and address opioid tolerance
  • Mesenchymal Stem Cell therapy for refractory arthritis pain

Desirable Physician Attributes

  • Patient Care [ACGME/ABMS] Provide care that is compassionate, appropriate and effective for the treatment of health problems and the promotion of health
  • Medical Knowledge [ACGME/ABMS] about established and evolving biomedical, clinical, and cognate (e.g. epidemiological and social-behavioral) sciences and the application of this knowledge to patient care
  • Employ Evidenced-based Practice [IOM] Integrate best research with clinical expertise and patient values for optimum care, and participate in learning and research activities to the extent feasible
  • Professionalism [ACGME/ABMS] Carrying out professional responsibilities, ethics, sensitivity
  • Interpersonal and Communication Skills [ACGME/ABMS] Effective information exchange, teaming with patients and families

Pain management domains and core competencies

  • 1. Multidimensional nature of pain: What is pain?
    • Describes how cultural, institutional, societal, and regulatory influences affect assessment and management of pain
    • Demonstrates knowledge of the theories and science for understanding the physiology of pain and
      pain transmission
  • 2. Pain assessment and measurement: How is pain assessed and measured?
    • Demonstrates empathic, compassionate, and professional communication during pain assessment
  • 3. Treatment: How is pain safely and effectively treated?
    • Identifies appropriate multimodal pain treatment options as part of a comprehensive pain management plan
    • Identifies and describes potential pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatment options
    • Develops a pain treatment plan based on benefits and risks of available treatments
