Gathering Data

Anxiety is highly prevalent in pediatric chronic pain. This comorbidity has been explained by the presence of shared mechanisms underlying the development and maintenance of chronic pain and anxiety. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that school is a significant source of anxiety among youth with chronic pain and that anxiety contributes to school-related functional impairment in this population. This article reviews the cooccurrence of pediatric chronic pain and anxiety, identifies unique sources of heightened school anxiety among youth with chronic pain, and describes current approaches for assessing anxiety in pediatric pain settings. Highlighted by this review is the absence of a comprehensive evidence-based approach for assessing school anxiety in pediatric chronic pain. Given the psychometric limitations inherent to gathering data from a single source, recommendations for advancing measurement methods are provided. Novel approaches may be needed to shed more light on the way in which school anxiety is experienced in pediatric chronic pain.

Absence Of Evidence

Pediatric chronic pain is widespread, under-recognized and undertreated. Best management usually involves a multimodal approach coordinated by a multidisciplinary team. The present commentary specifically discusses common pharmacological approaches to chronic pain in children, identifies gaps in knowledge and suggests several research directions that would benefit future clinical care.

Implementing Strategies

Despite great strides in evidence-based pain assessment and management strategies, infants and children still experience acute pain (including multiple painful procedures) and chronic pain during hospitalization. Translating best evidence on pain assessment and management into clinical practice remains a challenge. The knowledge- or evidence-to-practice gap in pain in children can be addressed by implementing strategies, underpinned by knowledge translation theories, frameworks, and models, to promote and sustain practice change. A range of factors related to the organizational context and individual behavior play a role in the adoption of new pain assessment and management practices.

Risk And Benefit

There is relatively little evidence around the role of cannabis and cannabinoids in the treatment of pediatric pain, leading to a reliance on limited adult research that may or may not be relevant. In this chapter, we discuss the science behind cannabinoid receptors, current indications for cannabis and cannabinoid use and associated risks, evolving evidence around their use in pain medicine, and particular considerations of treatment in children. We present a hypothetical clinical scenario to more clearly set the stage for addressing these considerations in adolescents. Finally, we discuss important points for researchers and clinicians to examine as they weigh the risk and benefit of treatment in a world where cannabis and its derivatives are available, evidence-based, and sought-after options for various conditions related to pediatric chronic pain.
