Acute Pain Updates

Project Summary Title and Description

Title
Acute Pain Updates
Description
Data for three surveillance reports for the 2020 report Treatments for Acute Pain: A Systematic Review (https://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/products/treatments-acute-pain/research). The 2020 report addressed benefits and harms of opioid, nonopioid pharmacologic, and nonpharmacologic treatments for specific types of acute pain (low back pain, neck pain, other musculoskeletal pain, neuropathic pain, postoperative pain [excluding inpatient management of pain after major surgical procedures], dental pain, pain due to kidney stones, and pain due to sickle cell disease). Given the clinical and public health importance of this topic, it is important to identify new evidence that could impact practice or policy. The purpose of this update was to identify new evidence published since the original 2020 report, and to determine how the new evidence impacts the findings of the original 2020 report.
