RATIONALE
Pain that occurs beyond the chronic pain already
being treated by appropriate analgesics is termed breakthrough pain. Neuropathic
pain is caused by damage to peripheral nerves or the central nervous system
(CNS). Somatic pain is localized and arises from bone, joint, muscle,
skin, or connective tissue. Referred pain is pain that is localized in
uninjured tissue.
