On October 15th, we celebrated World Pain Day at the Institut Guttmann, focused on Telemedicine, a methodology that is helping to detect, prevent and treat pain. Although this day is celebrated worldwide on October 17th, in order to guarantee the presence of attendees and to be able to communicate the message to everyone, it was decided to advance to Friday and it resulted in a successful participation.

A stand at the entrance of the Neurorehabilitation Hospital allowed different nursing professionals to explain and transmit the evolution in the treatment and support of pain thanks to telemedicine. Patients, relatives and other professionals from the Institut Guttmann visited the stand during the day and gave their opinion in a short survey.

In addition, two thematic sessions were organized: An informative session about Pain and Telemedicine for patients and their families, and an informative session for professionals under the title "Combination Therapy for Neurophatic Pain: A review of recent evidence."

Thanks to all the people who made it possible!
