THE BENEFITS
The Multimodal Approach Has Been Proven in Clinical Studies to:
- Lower pain scale scores
- Decrease opioid use
- Result in fewer opioid-related adverse effects
- Decrease length of post-surgery hospital stays
The multimodal approach to pain management seeks to decrease the emphasis on opioid analgesics by utilizing several therapies, including a combination of non-medicinal and medicinal treatments, to effectively reduce pain and improve patient health.
Incorporating this into pharmacotherapy, healthcare providers utilize multiple analgesic drugs, each with different modes of action, simultaneously to create a safer pain management treatment plan.
The core idea is to include a variety of different treatments that work synergistically, allowing physicians to decrease individual analgesic doses, which in turn decreases adverse effects.
It is important to note that multimodal strategies do not advocate abandoning the use of opioid analgesics altogether. Instead, they promote the use of a diverse range of pain management treatments rather than relying on an opioid-centric model. Depending on the type and cause of pain, a multimodal strategy for pain management can incorporate a combination of opioids, NSAIDs, skeletal muscle relaxants, acetaminophen, local anesthetics, etc.
Multimodal therapy has been gaining popularity over the past several decades, even for conditions unrelated to pain. Some examples include:
