Enough is enough: time for change in pain education?

Each year the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) runs a campaign to bring attention to an aspect of pain management. This year the Global Year is for Excellence in Pain Education (see: https://www.iasp-pain.org/GlobalYear). The aim of the year is to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice. There are some useful factsheets available on the website to help promote excellence in pain education including: Current Status of Pain Education and Implementation Challenges; Pain Curriculum Design Models and Implementation Approaches; and Pain Education Assessment and Evaluation Strategies.
