Continuous infusion analgesia made easy with this 3-week interactive and tutor guided course.

What you'll learn

Our knowledge and understanding of pain, and its adverse effects on patient health has expanded rapidly over many years. As clinicians and nurses, an understanding of pain perception, recognition of pain, and how to manage pain is crucial to our patients’ welfare and wellbeing.

This course will journey through the physiology of pain perception, how different analgesics work, how to accurately monitor patients on analgesic therapy. What’s more, we will also review specific analgesic techniques in various diseases and procedures, including emergency analgesia of the critically ill patient.

  • Topic 1: Physiology and Recognition of Pain:
    This topic will look at how the sensation of pain arises, and how animals respond to pain. In addition, we will learn how to recognize pain, and how to more accurately assess pain using pain scoring systems.
  • Topic 2: Analgesic Medications and Techniques:
    This week we will look at how the different analgesics work, and the best way to use them, monitor the use of analgesics, legal requirements, and, importantly, how to manage toxicity due to analgesics. We will cover intravenous analgesic infusions, epidurals, local anaesthetic blocks, and management of chronic pain as well!
  • Topic 3: Analgesia in Disease States:
    This topic will covers analgesia in specific disease states, including pregnancy, emergency patients, acute abdominal discomfort, caesarean section, geriatric and paediatric patients and more!
