Sommario/riassunto

Pain in older people is both common and disabling, and differs significantly in terms of its aetiology, diagnosis and treatment from pain in the general adult population. This pocketbook is a companion for anyone managing older patients suffering with pain and covers areas such as depression, pain and addiction, and assessment.
