RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF PATIENTS PRESENTING TO OUR PAIN CLINIC WITHIN ONE YEAR

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to retrospectively examine the demographic characteristics, main causes of pain, diagnoses and applied treatment methods of patients who applied to a pain clinic. It is expected that these data will contribute to the evaluation of current clinical practices and the development of more effective pain management strategies. Methods: The study was conducted with a retrospective design among patients who presented to our clinic between January 2023 and December 2023. During this period, the medical records of the patients who applied to the pain clinic were examined. The patients' (age, gender), reasons for application (pain localization) and treatment approaches (drug therapies, interventional procedures) were recorded. Results: When demographic characteristics were examined, 56.8% of the 1210 patients included in the study were female, 43.2% were male, and the mean age was determined as 47.42±20.56. When the complaints of the patients were examined, the reasons for application were back pain, leg pain and widespread body pain in order of frequency. In terms of treatment methods, the most frequently performed procedure was the plan block, followed by epidural analgesia. Conclusion: In our study, it was observed that the majority of patients applying to the pain clinic applied due to chronic pain and needed multidisciplinary treatment approaches. These data are important for the development of new strategies for pain management in clinical practices and for increasing patient satisfaction. It is recommended that more studies be conducted, especially on the effectiveness of interventional methods and the role of psychological support.
