Therapy by Diagnosis Services
Pain syndromes exist for which specific therapies are indicated and have been shown to have significant benefit in the literature. One of the major undertakings of our medical director, Dr. Edgar Ross, was to create extensive treatment algorithms for basically all painful conditions as listed by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) diagnosis coding system. The purpose and long term goal of these algorithms is to standardize pain treatments, and enable outcomes to be tracked by diagnosis. Some of the more common specific pain syndromes seen in our pain management center are listed below.
