Anesthesia services : acute pain management
Consultants in Pain Management, Inc. is a subgroup of Atlantic Anesthesia anesthesiologists who will evaluate and manage your acute post-operative pain or other acute pain issues.
Acute pain management frequently includes the use of Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) pumps that safely allow you self administer narcotic pain medication in a safe, computer controlled manner when you need it. Other acute pain management plans include epidural analgesia which provides days of pain relief for complex abdominal and chest Surgery, and special nerve blocks that provide initial post-operative pain for several hours. These options can be discussed with your anesthesiologist. Let your anesthesiologist know if you are receiving treatment for chronic pain management. This will be taken into consideration during the treatment of your acute pain.
