“…In terms of “completeness of reporting,” eight guidelines were rated as medium quality, 18,19,21,24,26,28–30 four as high quality, 17,20,23,25 and three as low quality 22,27,31 . When assessed against the ‘clinical validity’ criterion, most included guidelines were rated as medium quality ( n = 8), 18,19,24,26–30 followed by high quality ( n = 5), 17,20,21,23,25 and low quality ( n = 2) 22,31 . The ‘overall quality’ of included guidelines was rated as medium for nine guidelines, 18,19,21,24,26–30 high for four guidelines, 17,20,23,25 and low for two guidelines 22,31 …”

“…As a last resort, family physicians might prescribe opioids, despite current evidence or even opinion against prescribing. 8,16 Finding effective and cost-efficient alternative ways to manage chronic pain in an outpatient setting is therefore crucial. 41,42 Our program demonstrates that an RN-led chronic noncancer pain intervention program within a family medicine practice is feasible and shows promise for improving pain-related outcomes and, importantly, reducing opioid use.…”

“…1 For chronic pain management, nonpharmacologic options and multidisciplinary care are recommended as gold standards. [6][7][8] Self-management is central to such programs, as it empowers patients to adopt behaviour, strategies, and skills to improve their quality of life. [9][10][11] In Canada most multidisciplinary clinics for chronic pain are located in hospitals, and access can be limited by long wait times.…”

“…1 In an extensive review of the best available evidence, Korownyk et al acknowledged that "despite the prevalence of chronic pain and the subsequent search for effective therapies, an optimal approach in primary care management remains elusive." 2 Now what? Do we abandon ineffective therapies and develop new strategies, perhaps by incorporating data from noninvasive neuroimaging and fully embracing a biopsychosocial model of care?…”
