The WorkSafeBC Evidence-Based Practice Group (EBPG) conducted a review of systematic reviews investigating the efficacy of treatments for chronic noncancer pain. The systematic literature search of medical databases, including Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Library’s Health Technology Assessment Database, BIOSIS, Embase, and Medline, was done in April 2010.
The extended summary of the chronic pain report can be viewed at www.worksafebc.com/health_care_providers/Assets/PDF/poster-presentations/ChronicPainTreatmentsEvidence.pdf [12].
No limitation was employed in this search. The results are summarized below. (View larger table here [13].)
