Pain Management Webcast Package
The Pain Management Webcast Package covers two individual webcast sessions presented at Clinical Congress 2018 on Opioid-Sparing Practices in Surgery and one webcast on Opioid-Sparing Perioperative Pain Management.
Each webcast offers practicing surgeons Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit and Self-Assessment Credit for each webcast. Receive a CME certificate with Self-Assessment Credit upon successful completion of viewing the presentations, successfully passing the posttest, and completing the online evaluation. Residents will receive a Certificate of Completion.
Course Outline
Opioid-Sparing Practices in Surgery: Acute Management of Postoperative Surgical Pain (Part 1)
As surgeons manage postoperative pain in their patients, strategies to judiciously prescribe and advise patients if, when, and how to use opioids and a variety of alternative pain medications are needed. Implementation of opioid-sparing alternatives and pain management protocols, particularly in conjunction with enhanced recovery guidelines, will be discussed with evidence provided from institutions and across surgical specialties. Algorithms to manage the opioid-naïve as well as opioid-tolerant patient will also be highlighted. Opioid-sparing perioperative interventions will also be highlighted such that the surgical team will emerge with a higher level of awareness of acute pain management techniques that can be used pre-, intra-, and postoperatively.
Opioid-Sparing Practices in Surgery: Pain Management for Special Patient Populations (Part 2)
Algorithms to effectively manage surgical pain in patients who are opioid-dependent, using, or recovering from misuse, or who are in pain when first seen are urgently needed. While surgical procedures for these patients may differ, the goal of reducing opioid use to manage pain remains the same. This panel will highlight, through specific cases, how screening practices, working with pain management specialists, and employing multimodal analgesia in conjunction with minimal opioid dosing are effective strategies to manage pain, reduce complications, and improve functional and quality outcomes in patients with complex medical histories.
Opioid-Sparing Perioperative Pain Management: A Credentialed Course for the Practicing Surgeon
This course provides expert guidance and resources to implement and evaluate an opioid-sparing program at your surgical center. Panels, video, guidelines, small group application, and algorithms will be used to teach multimodal therapy and opioid-sparing perioperative protocols. Outpatient medication prescribing and pain management patient/caregiver education—including communication, screening, optimal discharge planning, patient contracts and referrals to pain management teams—will also be discussed. Case studies will include managing opioid-naïve and opioid-tolerant patients with a focus on breast, colorectal, hernia, and trauma patients.
