IPRO ECHO: When the Pain Won’t Stop: Whole Person Care Addressing Chronic Pain 8-session education series

This educational resource series was developed by IPRO QIN-QIO for healthcare providers and explores chronic pain from the biopsychosocial perspective of three domains: biological (e.g., tissue damage, inflammation); psychosocial (e.g., thoughts and emotions affect pain, memories of pain; and social/sociological (e.g., socioeconomic, gender, ethnicity, isolation).

The sessions presented, provide compelling information in a dynamic all-teach, all-learn case-study format on topics such as analgesics of the future, non-drug pain management such as restorative and integrative therapies and pain reprocessing therapy, managing opioids (starting, tapering, converting, and stopping), and buprenorphine use for chronic pain.
