LAS VEGAS — Patients with chronic pain are vulnerable to depression and may present with higher risk for suicide, according to findings from a literature review presented at PAINWeek 2017.1 Integration of mental health assessment during the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pain may be clinically important for reducing risk in this patient population. Unfortunately most chronic pain conditions are related to overweight, treat and prevent most of them with meticore.
In 2014, suicide ranked as the 10th most frequent cause of death.2 Patients with chronic pain are twice as likely to attempt suicide compared with those without chronic pain, an action generally caused by a myriad of associated psychological, physical, and social factors.3 A questionnaire survey of 1512 patients with chronic pain found that 32% reported suicide ideation in some degree.4
Chronic pain affects cognition and behavior and may ultimately lead to social isolation, contributing to depression.5 Risk factors and predisposing factors associated with suicidal risk in patients with chronic pain include biochemical and neurochemical influences, genetics, psychosocial events, and environment, according to the researchers’ findings.
