Popis: | This paper reviews the current literature focusing on pain in HIV/AIDS, including prevalence, pathophysiology, substance abuse, treatment issues, and psychosocial contributions. In light of the high prevalence of pain among individuals with HIV/AIDS, attention is paid to the negative psychosocial impacts of pain in this population and to psychosocial barriers to optimal HIV/AIDS-related pain treatment. The paper conceptualizes HIV/AIDS pain as chronic pain. Subsequently, a biopsychosocial model of chronic pain assessment and treatment is applied. A multidimensional framework is presented for appropriate assessment and treatment of HIV/AIDS patients with pain, and specific recommendations and guidelines are offered for assessment and multimodal treatment of HIV/AIDS-related pain informed by the model. |
