This chapter discusses the management of acute pain. It begins with an introduction which describes the benefits of acute pain management and the measurement of pain. Analgesic drugs are then described, including paracetamol; non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and opioids (including their comparative efficacy). Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA), epidural analgesia, and continuous peripheral nerve blockade are described. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and acupuncture are discussed. The management of the patient with persistent pain and a substance misuse disorder is also discussed. The chapter concludes with a discussion of non-opioid adjuvant analgesics.
