Description - Turning Down the Pain: Skills for Post-Surgical Pain Management by George H. Glade, M.C., M.N., ARNP

here are many reasons to limit or in some cases avoid the use of narcotics post-surgically. A history of addiction, allergies to narcotics or difficulty tolerating the many potential side effects are some of the major barriers to the use of narcotics. We need to create a change in culture where the medical profession doesn't over prescribe narcotic pain medication. Pain after surgery is real even if you have a history of addiction and must be treated. Turning Down the Pain provides the reader with a repertoire of tools that effectively combat pain following surgery.
