January Pain Management Poll Do-Over! Due to technical issues last month, we were unable to collect poll data from most of you - so we are repeating last month's questions regarding non-pharma pain management. Thank you for participating! We would love to know your daily use of non-pharmacologic modalities for pain management! Question 1: What equipment do you use in practice for pain management? Many practitioners utilize non-pharmacologic options for chronic pain and rehabilitation, especially osteoarthritis. Did you know that non-pharmacologic can be helpful in providing multimodal analgesia for acute and emergent pain conditions also? The most common non- pharma devices used for acute and emergent pain are the therapy laser and the pEMF devices. IVAPM Student Membership!
