Five New Technologies for Pain Management 1 HEAT Pain Pro™ TENS Device. 2 Radiofrequency Ablation Devices. 3 ActiPatch®. 4 BurstDR Stimulation. 5 Virtual Reality.
Below are 12 PPM -selected devices broken down by the type of pain-relieving therapy they provide and no-nonsense details about how they work. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and microcurrent nerve stimulation (MENS) devices use low-voltage electrical current to provide pain relief.
Others theorize that electrical stimulation causes the body to release endorphins, which are natural pain relievers. MENS devices use less amperage but both relieve pain and help to heal damaged tissue. Do these devices really work? Our resident clinician, Tiziano Marovino, DPT, MPH, weighs in:
The FDA-cleared devices in this guide can complement your self-care plan by providing pain relief and keep you on track to living your best life. Some are wearable, to help while you go about your day, and others are best suited for making time at home for a pain-relieving treatment.
The inter-agency task force identified several gaps in current best practice for the management of acute and chronic pain. Fragmentation of pain care and a lack of coherent policy for pain management limit best practices. Multimodal, non-opioid therapies are often underutilized, particularly in the perioperative and peri-injury settings.
The authors recommend a balanced approach to acute and chronic pain management that is individualized, multimodal, and multidisciplinary, and that is based on a biopsychosocial model of care.
Developed by a broad group of representatives and stakeholders, this report identifies gaps, inconsistencies, and updates and provides recommendations for best practices for managing acute and chronic pain. Before you go to the doctor, review this checklist of questions about opioids and naloxone.
Specifically, the recommendations to develop coherent, evidence-based guidelines, provide better coverage for pain management services, promote the de-stigmatization of pain, improve pain education, and expand the pain management workforce will guide policymakers and help all of us better care for our patients.
