Abstract

The high prevalence of acute and chronic pain, its psychological, physiological, and financial implications, as well as emerging trends of quality of care assessment and pay-for-performance necessitate a robust and multidisciplinary approach to pain management [1-3]. Pain must be considered and addressed during the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative periods. Collaboration between surgeons, anesthesiologists, and pain medicine specialists is critical for the optimization of outcomes.
