WAIT! This is part 2 of non-cancer inpatient pain management in older adults (Part 1 is episode #15 with Dr. Thomas Chen, who talks about the pharmacology/theory of pain medications in older adults - check it out first!). In this episode, we jump into it - GeriPal physician Dr. James Brehany will focus on APPLICATION of foundational concepts. Spoiler alert - we will delve into a case of gabapentin, tramadol, SNRI, buprenorphine, common opioids, and then end with lightning rounds. And before all you palliative care peeps get your pants in a bunch, this episode focuses on NON-CANCER ACUTE INPATIENT PAIN, so you’ll have to put that specific thinking cap on first. We don’t touch on outpatient pain management, but resources will be on our show notes.
