THE PSA’s upcoming Pharmacy
Australia Congress in Melbourne
28-31 October will include a
presentation on the treatment of
pain by rehabilitation physician Dr
Stephen De Graaff.
In Treating Pain in
Multidisciplinary Settings De Graaff
will look at how the use of
medications needs to be regular
and predictable, and in cases of
ongoing problems there should be
a partnership with the treating
practitioner/therapist.
As well as medication, options
can include altering biomechanics,
changing lifestyle, exercise and
education and stress management,
as well as psychological treatments
such as cognitive behavioural
therapy to change the response to
the painful experience.
PAC will offer delegates the
opportunity to earn up to 35 CPD
credits; see www.pac10.com.au.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 07 Sep 10 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 07 Sep 10
