Neuropsychological and psychopathological problems and their management for chronic non-fatal pain patients - [S.L]: Cerebrate 2022 - 98p 23cm

INTRODUCTION Neuropsychological aspects of all the individuals play a vital role in defining pain today. It is important to see that the psychological approach has become an integral part in the setting where various patients come from a diverse range of chronic pain complaints. The role of a psychologist and relaxation training is growing up. Especially, in the recent years where, programs such as multidisciplinary pain clinics have come. Programs such as these play a very important role in the treatment today. The analgesia or the medicines can help the patient to a certain extent but the psychological intervention helps in healing the patient from the deeper roots. Thus multi-dimensional factors involving the environment, personality and adaptations are studied. The present study was planned to evaluate the cognitive disruptions in our memory as working memory, mini-mental-status examination and psychopathological problems as anxiety & depression in the chronic non-malignant pain patients. This has largely remained an unexplored area, nevertheless, vital in order to have an insight to the significance of relaxation training and psychological management.
