Program Objectives
Principles and Practices of Pain Medicine is a comprehensive review of current advances in the field of pain medicine and presents a window into the future developments of this rapidly growing field. The program is integral to clinicians of all levels, and academicians and researchers, all of who play an active role in caring for patients with common and advanced pain problems. This program also meets the CME requirements for pain management for licensing in California and other states.
The curriculum is designed to match the subject matter of the specialty board requirements, including current standards of care, and is a useful tool in aiding practitioners who now are evaluated through the American Board of Medical Specialties’ Maintenance of Certification process. Board-certified physicians must build six core competencies for quality patient care in their medical specialty: appropriate patient care, application of medical knowledge, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism, systems-based practice for optimal care, and practice-based learning and improvement.
The program faculty includes experts from various Harvard institutions, as well as nationally known specialists from other prestigious institutions. Principles and Practices of Pain Medicine emphasizes recent progress in understanding the pathophysiology and clinical science of pain medicine and state-of-the-art therapy.
Whether you are new to pain medicine or have been in the field for some time, the program’s lectures and discussions are specifically designed to improve your knowledge and understanding of the principles and practices of pain medicine. Also included are special sessions to address all important risk management issues in pain medicine. Clinicians preparing for board exams will find this program helpful.
