Q=quality of the pain i) Somatic: tissue damage, localized ii) Visceral: visceral organs, referred (nausea/sweats) iii) Neuropathic: injury & inflammation nerves, radicular d. R=radiation and region e. S=severity, pain intensity scale f. T=timing 2. Assess functional history -most useful measure of severity of pain is impact on fxn

  7. Comprehensive Pain Assessment • Review prior drug and nondrug treatment • Not all pain needs an opiate or even a medication • WHO stepladder • Caution with polypharmacy 4. Examine patient and review data
