What are the Components of Multimodal Pain Management?
1. Pharmacologic Therapies: This includes the use of NSAIDs, acetaminophen, opioids, and adjuvant medications like gabapentin or pregabalin. 2. Regional Anesthesia: Techniques such as spinal or epidural anesthesia can provide significant pain relief during and after surgery. 3. Local Anesthetics: The use of local anesthetics at the surgical site can help in immediate postoperative pain control. 4. Non-Pharmacologic Therapies: These include physical therapies, cognitive-behavioral therapy, acupuncture, and other integrative medicine approaches.
