Pain Management in Emergency Medicine - Behçet Al - İstanbul Tıp Kitabevi

This book is designed to serve as a comprehensive academic and clinical reference for healthcare professionals navigating the multifaceted nature of pain in the emergency department (ED). Structured across four integrative chapters, the text addresses the biological, psychological, ethical, and sociopolitical dimensions of pain with a rigor that reflects the complexity of the subject. The current book includes five chapters.

The first chapter explores the Multidimensional Nature of Pain, examining its epidemiology, theoretical frameworks, neurophysiological underpinnings, and ethical considerations. This foundational perspective reinforces the need to treat pain not merely as a symptom but as a dynamic, lived experience shaped by individual, cultural, and systemic factors.
