Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: Michael Easton, MD (Rush University Medical Center)
Description: Produced by the largest medical society dedicated to the improvement of addiction care, The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM), this book presents clinical considerations and guidelines for the clinical management of patients with pain and addictions.
Purpose: This handbook is designed to reflect the growing evidence base as well as the information provided in other ASAM publications widely used by practitioners. The goal is to provide a concise guide to the prevention, identification, and management of both pain and addiction to help with the clinical management of patients.
Audience: Intended as a guide for clinicians who treat this patient population, this book is ideal for primary care providers, mental health clinicians, clinicians treating patients with substance abuse disorders, and pain clinicians who wish to bridge the knowledge gaps in treating these individuals.
Features: The 31 chapters are grouped into five sections that cover the core concepts of addressing pain and addiction; diagnosis and treatment; treating pain patients with, or at risk for, co-occurring addictions; treating patients with substance use disorders and addiction with co-occurring pain; and adapting treatments to the needs of specific populations. The main thrust of this book is to help with moving the treatment of pain patients from the biomedical model where the patient is a passive participant to a biopsychosocial model, where patients are more engaged in their treatment and where all aspects of patients' lives are taken into account.
Assessment: With the country's focus on the "opioid epidemic," medical and regulatory agencies, as well as state and federal governing bodies have put out various guidelines regarding the prescribing of pain medication and the management of these patients. All of this information has led to confusion and frustration on the part of many healthcare providers. This handbook is an evidence-based, concise guide to managing the challenges in treating this population.
