Persistent Pain
Persistent pain is a common problem, affecting as many as three out of ten adults in the UK. This has caused a high-demand for pain services and long waiting lists.
Solution
Living With Persistent Pain is a digital platform that can integrate into any patient pathway for pain management. It virtually connects pain specialist clinicians to patients and supports every stage of the pathway from onboarding through to discharge. It enables clinicians to distribute a bespoke pain self-management programme service to their patients and monitor their patients’ condition remotely. It contains:
- a four-week programme that guides patients through learning about how pain works, how to live better alongside their pain, what to do in a flare-up, mindfulness and much more
- setting medication reminders
- keeping diaries to track their activity and rest
- completing PROMs
Benefits
The evidence shows that if people with persistent pain partake in pain management strategies, their function, quality of life and mental wellbeing improve.
The Living With Persistent Pain product can:
- reduce waiting lists
- improve staff to patient ratio
