The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2017 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc. The growth of Pain Clinics is a recent development. This chapter describes how these Clinics expanded, why anesthesiologists play a prominent role in such Clinics and why psychologists have historically had a major influence in the management of patients in pain. The relative lack of psychiatrists in these Clinics is discussed and the skills that these mental health professionals can offer to patients with chronic pain are delineated.
