The experience of pain is the most common reason why individuals contact health care providers. Nursing Concepts: Pain is a text which describes how pain commonly manifests itself with regard to underlying clinical disorders, and with regard to age.  A unique feature is the case studies presented in the text. This case study approach provides the reader with thorough descriptions of clients experiencing pain along with interventions that lead to the resolution of pain.   In addition to describing the theory of pain, this text provides pertinent information on how to assess for pain in different patient populations. It describes pain in clients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), clients with malignant disease, clients with benign disorders such as chronic back pain, and in clients near death. It also describes barriers to the treatment of pain, with discussion of how the treatment of pain is often related to the setting.   Recent JCAHO standards on pain mandate that health care providers perform a comprehensive assessment on all clients with pain and develop a plan for appropriate treatment. Nursing Concepts: Pain provides nurses and nursing students with the necessary information to update their knowledge and facilitate pain relief, making Nursing Concepts: Pain a necessary addition to the bookshelf of every present and future health care practitioner.
