The role of intraoperative interventions to minimise chronic postsurgical pain
2017
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) is the most common complication following surgery, with increasing evidence of both its prevalence and severity.

In this review, we describe the increasing evidence for preventive or ‘protective’ strategies. Controversies and conflicting human data are presented along with suggestions for improved future study.
