PAINWeek® is the annual conference on pain for frontline practitioners offering 75+ hours of continuing medical education (CME) activities. The mix of plenary and breakout sessions provides clinical and practice management strategies for practitioners in the primary care setting. It is convened at the Red Rock Casino, Resort, and Spa in Las Vegas, Nevada. In 2007 and 2008, PAINWeek welcomed over 700 clinicians interested in delivering better patient health outcomes.
Significant literature is available that supports the need for the pharmaceutical industry to move away from traditional branded sales training to knowledge-based and activity-driven programs that deliver value beyond product to clinicians. The Certified Pain Representative Training is a practical mix of marketplace, disease-state, and case-based activities that culminate in a live, 1½ day meeting.
This training program has also been adapted for Medical Sales Liaisons (MSLs) who would like to expand their understanding of the complex world of pain management.
Pain Masters™ Speaker Training is a best-in-class speaker training program for clinicians serving on medical Speakers Bureau programs. Pain Masters Training responds to the varying degrees of pain management knowledge and speaking acumen, establishing baseline knowledge in the foundations of pain management.
Pain Masters is about raising the bar and addressing the need for speakers to acquire a deeper understanding of comorbid factors, presumed pathophysiology, pain mechanisms, and neurobiology.
This expansive program incorporates adult learning practices utilizing a variety of educational media including home-study modules, audio CD-ROMs, webinars, and live training.
PainAwareness.org was initially launched as a site for practitioners. Its goal was to present the latest information and insights into pain management during the month of September, which is Pain Awareness month. In response to the enormity of traffic, the site grew well beyond its September-centric identity, evolving into a comprehensive resource that offers an array of knowledge and tools to practitioners interested in furthering their understanding about pain and pain management.
ClinicianLINK will connect medical professionals to peers, colleagues, industry, and other business professionals. The first phase of ClinicianLINK provides a FREE event listing site for third-party medical and healthcare event organizers. A more full-featured beta edition will soon be launched.
Controlled Substance Authentication Verification Education System (CSAVES) is a program that has been developed to meet the needs of a new model for risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS). Experience with the current risk minimization action plan (RiskMAP) does not confer risk evaluation mitigation strategy (REMS) expertise. A workable methodology for REMS must incorporate an academic perspective with a 21st century approach that includes innovation, forward thinking, technology, and the proven ability to implement. CSAVES provides a comprehensive yet simple class REMS solution.
