MicroCPD Summary

This MicroCPD course equips healthcare professionals (HCPs) with the essential knowledge and practical strategies to effectively manage chronic pain in diverse clinical settings. Participants will explore the classification and pathophysiology of chronic pain, comprehensive diagnostic approaches, and evidence-based multimodal treatment strategies, including pharmacological and non pharmacological interventions. Special considerations such as pain management in the elderly, patients with mental health comorbidities, and the role of telemedicine will also be covered. By enhancing their clinical competence in chronic pain management, HCPs can improve patient outcomes, reduce reliance on opioids, and adopt a holistic, patient-centred approach.
