The Lowdown: Rethinking the Role of Interventional Pain Management
There are over 250 interventional procedures traditionally thought of as pain based. However, this view can be considered very short-sighted, as many of these interventions have secondary effects that can greatly help patients outside of the traditional realm of pain management. Various traditional interventions that have significant evidence behind other conditions will be examined in this course, for example: stellate ganglion blocks to treat posttraumatic stress disorder, recalcitrant ventricular tachycardic storm, or severe Raynaud’s disease; spinal cord stimulation for peripheral vascular disease, intractable angina, or spinal cord injury/paralysis; and other procedures you may not realize play a role in treating other conditions
