A2 - Hadzic, Admir Y1 - 2007 N1 - T2 - NYSORA Textbook of Regional Anesthesia and Acute Pain Management AB - Emergency physicians are called on to provide care for a variety of emergent, urgent, and often complex conditions. Many patients present with pain as a component of their illness or require diagnostic and/or therapeutic interventions that are inherently painful to perform. As a result, the management of analgesia in the emergency department (ED) is a critical skill and an important element in the overall care of patients in this setting. This chapter is an overview of acute pain in the context of the ED as well as potential therapies, including regional anesthetic techniques for the emergency physician.
