Summary: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and a leading cause of disability worldwide, largely due to pain, the primary symptom of the disease.

It is more than 30 years since the New England Journal of Medicine published Eric Cassell's landmark article, “The Nature of Suffering and the Goals of Medicine.” He accuses modern medicine of increasing the patient's suffering: “Physicians' failure to understand the nature of suffering can result in medical intervention that (although technically adequate) not only fails to relieve suffering but becomes a source of suffering itself.”, p. 639 Have we made progress since 1982?

E03-D Multi-Disciplinary Pediatric End-of-Life Training Improves Staff Preparedness and Lessens Staff Distress
