Description
The text is presented under three umbrella headings of 'acute', 'chronic' and 'cancer' pain and is well supported with appropriate references. It will enable nurses working in a wide range of clinical situations to develop their knowledge and skills in effective pain relief from sound guidelines. Contributors to the book include nurses with vast clinical and research experience in specific areas of pain management. They recognise the important role that the nurse has to play in the management of pain as a member of a multi-disciplinary team and also the need for research in this exciting, fast developing field.
