Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Pain is defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage" (International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP), n.d.). The global prevalence of chronic pain is estimated at 20.0%, with women more affected than men, and prevalence increases with age. Proper classification and early detection are critical, as delayed treatment can worsen outcomes.
