Show Notes
Chronic non-cancer pain in adults over 60 years old is common. The consequences are a decreased quality of life, disability and increased healthcare costs which can be due to the cost of therapies or from adverse pharmacologic effects to name a few. This episode discusses the results of a systematic review and meta-analysis by Niknejad et al (2018) that looked at pain outcomes in this population using psychological modalities.
