What You'll Learn

In this module students will examine personal and cultural understandings of pain and the changes in understanding that have taken place in the last 60 years. This includes the changes led by pain science that have taken the understanding from a biomedical tissue-based phenomenon, where pathology was the focus of assessment and treatment, to an understanding about neural pain mechanisms that triggered a focus on assessment and treatment of pain as a symptom, to more biopsychosocial viewpoints where pain is conceptually taken out of the tissues and attributed to the predictive brain of the sufferer and assessment and treatment is person-centred. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their own attitudes and beliefs and the influences and contexts that has shaped them. The content of the Module reflects the section from the Interprofessional Pain Curriculum developed by the International Association for the Study of Pain, Multidimensional Nature of Pain.
