How that pain is managed is still up to debate in some systems and under many protocols. Paramedics are at the forefront of care and the first point of care for many patients and yet they are often unable or unwilling to use major pain management drugs in the field to treat their patients. This episode will look in to the way pain works, current understanding of the physiology of pain and its effects on health and healing in our patients. Even the most basic pain management skills, when used aggressively to treat acute pain, will have a positive affect on helping our patients in the long run on the road to recovery. Follow this two part series here on the MedicCast for EMTs and paramedics on understanding pain and pain management in the emergency services field. -------- Sponsored by the MedicCast Extra (../../amember/signup.php),and MedicCast Store (http://store.mediccast.com/) Extra Content for MedicCast Listeners for less than $1 per day (via monthly subscription) * NREMT Study and Prep Tips * All Tips and Meds segments from the MedicCast and Nursing Show as separate downloadable files * Special iTunes Podcast Feed for Members – Get the segments as a podcast * Extra Members-Only content added monthly ---------------------------- Contact Me!
