""Some patients present with a primary complaint of pain while others complain of pain secondary to a more generalized disease process or procedure. As a healthcare professional, you are trained to diagnose the pathology and then treat it. A patient presents with pneumonia, your work-up supports the diagnosis; you treat it, then the patient gets better. However, another layer of patient care needs more focus in the medical community. If the patient with pneumonia complains of intercostal pain secondary to a violent cough, we have the ability to manage the symptoms of pain effectively, and should not hesitate to do so promptly. Our actions to alleviate pain will not hinder our ability to treat the underlying disease. Yet modern medicine often considers these goals mutually exclusive, with pain management a distance second. As medical professionals, when we have an incomplete understanding of how to treat a condition, we under treat it, erring on the side of do no harm. This book will give you the confidence to confront your patient's discomfort and succeed in conquering the pain"--Provided by publisher."

"The sensation of pain is the means by which the body is made urgently aware of the presence of tissue damage. Pain represents a protective reflex for self-preservation. It is often pain that brings the patient to the dental office but also can be the factor that keeps the patient from seeking treatment at the appropriate time.Pain control is of great importance in dental practice. The clinician has to know the functional neuroanatomy, peripheral and central nervous system pathways, pain modulating system and various categories of pain of the head, neck and face. Psychological and psychosocial factors also contribute to pain, whether pain arises endogenously from pathologic processes or exogenously from trauma or even dental treatment. The dentists task is threefold: first, to establish the correct diagnosis, second to find the cause of the pain, and third to select the treatment plan that the addresses the patients complaint. By knowing the classification of orofacial pain, the clinician will easily make a diagnosis and determine the cause of the pain. After establishing the physical diagnosis it is easy then to determine the therapy to be made. The treatment in managing dental pain from pharmacotherapy is still effective using analgesic and local anesthetic drug."

"Nyeri merupakan salah satu masalah yang harus segera diberi intervensi oleh perawat. Ada beberapa cara untuk menurunkan nyeri, Salah satunya adalah dengan menggunakan teknik relaksasi imajinasi. Teknik relaksasi imajinasi ini dapat diajarkan pada klien dengan post operasi fraktur yang mengalami nyeri.Untuk membuktikan adanya pengaruh teknik relaksasi imajinasi terhadap peningkatan rasa nyaman bagi klien, peneliti melakukan penelitian dengan judul "Pengaruh Teknik Relaksasi Imajinasi Terhadap Pengurangan Tingkat Nyeri Pada Klien dengan Post Operasi Fraktur di Ruang Rawat Bedah Ortopedi di Rumah Sakit Cipto Mangunkusumo Jakarta". Pada 20 responden yang dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu 10 klien kelompok eksperimen dan 10 klien kelompok kontrol.Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik Quasi eksperimen dengan pre tes dan post tes. Data diperoleh dengan melakukan wawancara terhadap responden. Pada kelompok eksperimen dilakukan wawancara awal (pre tes) sebelum dipandu untuk melakukan teknik relaksasi imajinasi Kemudian dilakukan wawancara akhir (post tes). Pada kelompok kontrol di lakukan wawancara awal (pre tes) dan wawancara akhir (post tes). Adapun hal-hal yang diwawancara adalah karakterisktik nyeri yang meliputi: frekuensi, lama dan lokasi serta tingkat nyeri.Dari data tingkat nyeri yang diperoleh, dianalisa dan diuji dengan uji statistik student "t" test. Dengan perhitungan uji statistik tersebut diperoleh nilai t= 4,377 Bila batas kemaknaan (or) 0,05 dan df= I8 dapat diperoleh dari label 1, bahwa nilai P adalah 2,101. Hal ini membuktilkan bahwa 1 > 2,101 yang berarti H0 ditolak yang berarti terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara kelompok eksperimen yang melakukan teknik relaksasi imajinasi dengan kelompok kontrol.Untuk penelitian lebih lanjut, diharapkan memperhatikan ketenangan lingkungan dan pemilihan sampel yang mewakili, serta kendalikan pengaruh sosial ekonomi dan budaya responden."

Chronic pain in joints can cause a negative impact for the elderly, such as disrupted daily activities and mobility. This case study aims to describe the results of interventions from non-pharmacological pain management, namely warm ginger compresses performed in the elderly with chronic pain problems. Ginger warm compress is done eight times for 20 minutes in 3 weeks.

The results of the intervention show that there is a decrease in pain scale by using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) from moderate (5-6 pain scale) to mild pain (1-2 pain scale) in the three managed families. This shows that non-pharmacological pain management by applied warm ginger compresses can reduce pain symptoms. This study suggests the application of ginger warm compresses for the elderly with chronic pain in long-term care institutions."
