Glyn and Konrad have had the pleasure of working and collaborating with, being taught by and having access to the academic output of many talented and interesting individuals working within, and outside, the speciality. In the podcasts we want to have informal conversations with many varied and diverse individuals who have, and continue to, shape, develop and lead the field. We also hope to discuss chronic pain with patients and their parents, as well as clinicians working with them. We want them to help us explain the many different aspects that contribute to this complex presentation of pain that we all see. In addition we will see if we can get to know them a bit, what makes them tick and how their experiences have shaped them.

Interdisciplinary pain programmes

In this episode, Glyn and Konrad initially discuss a symposium in Halifax, Canada they both attended about readiness for change prior to attending a pain management programme. Many young people find it difficult to make the transition from thinking about their chronic pain as an acute problem to a chronic problem. The strategies for dealing with either are very different. Not all young people are ready to make such a change in their thinking. The question is how we prepare young people better for their intensive rehabilitation programmes. Glyn talks about one of the studies that has one of the potential solutions.

Following on from this, we talk to Navil Sethna, who is the Clinical Director, Mayo Family Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Center and Professor of Anesthesiology Harvard Medical School Boston Children’s Hospital. Navil talks about how he got involved in pain, how he set up the first interdisciplinary pain management service for children in the world, some of the basic requirements of pain management programmes, and which children are more likely to benefit from programmes.
