There is increasing concern regarding the risk to develop chronic pain after cardiac surgery with potential detrimental effects on recovery and quality of life. With shortened hospital stays after cardiac surgery, there needs to be more emphasis placed on self-management skills and the support provided to patients and their informal caregivers during the subacute phase. A paradigm shift needs to occur on multiple levels to prevent chronic pain and opioid misuse after surgery. Initiating this change means redefining the timing, recipients, and content and format of interventions. Several avenues can be examined and translated in practice to promote a successful transition after cardiac surgery.
