BPS Study Days
The Learning in Pain Series (LIPS) is the
educational programme of the British Pain Society. It will
provide comprehensive learning in pain medicine as per the
International Association for the Study of Pain curriculum
and is organised as a series of study days to run for three
years.
There will be four LIPS study days in each
academic year. The LIPS Study Days are appropriate for single
day attendance but it is intended that the days complement
each other.
Details of previous Study Days can be found
at the bottom of this page.
A Study Day Bursary is available to members
of the Society who require financial assistance to attend
these Study Days. For details of eligibility, application
and deadlines please go to to the grants and awards page in
the 'For members' section, or click

Please see below for details of the forthcoming
Study Days:
Acute Pain - Preventing
Chronicity (23rd Study Day)
24th January 2012
Churchill House, 35 Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4SG

This meeting is aimed at all specialties
and levels of experience. There will be an emphasis on group
discussions to facilitate learning around:
Good acute pain management may prevent chronic
pain. Chronic post surgical pain
(CPSP) and sickle cell disease are ideally suited for such
a paradigm. The study day
will discuss the potential advantages and adverse consequences
of aggressive acute
pain analgesia. Systemic analgesia, regional analgesia and
complimentary treatments
will be covered. The barriers of implementing known effective
treatments will also be
explored.
