Abstract:The successful treatment of acute postoperative pain remains a great challenge despite sufficient treatment concepts, including systemic and regional analgesia techniques. The efficacy of these strategies has been proved when they are adopted at the clinical conditions of the patient as well as at the requirements of the surgical procedure. The implementation of an acute pain service improves patient satisfaction and accelerates postoperative rehabilitation.
