“…A common rationale for the consideration of IPM for a patient with intractable and severely disabling pain is the expectation for low risk or harm with its administration. From a strictly biomedical perspective, outcome studies indicate that interventional procedures, while not without some risk [124], are generally safe when conducted by well-trained and skilled practitioners [115,125]. However, from a broader biopsychosocial view, IPM can impart considerable harm through its influence on beliefs about pain and a diminished emphasis on the patient's role in managing pain.…”
