  • Title: Chronic pain: a review for the family physician.
    Author: Bergman JJ, Werblun MN.
    Journal: J Fam Pract; 1978 Oct; 7(4):685-93. PubMed ID: 212509.
    Abstract:
    The challenge of effective management of chronic pain frequently confronts the family physician. Successful management relies on the physician's skill in integrating fundamental concepts in the pathophysiology, psychodynamics, and diagnostic and therapeutic modalities associated with chronic pain syndromes. The use of time-contingent rather than pain-contingent therapy in the prevention of the chronic pain state is advocated.
