Spinal surgical intervention is an important treatment tool in the functional and structural restoration of patients. Contrasting one specialty to another, neuromodulation is one that recently has had an unparalleled growth trajectory. This gives a spine surgeon an important role in treating patients throughout their disease process. It is the understanding that a technically successful surgery does not always translate into the patient results that one desires and that the treatment of chronic…

Abstract
Spinal surgical intervention is an important treatment tool in the functional and structural restoration of patients. Contrasting one specialty to another, neuromodulation is one that recently has had an unparalleled growth trajectory. This gives a spine surgeon an important role in treating patients throughout their disease process. It is the understanding that a technically successful surgery does not always translate into the patient results that one desires and that the treatment of chronic pain is part of that continuum. Therapies are available when pain persists following surgery, or perhaps when pain is present without a surgical pathology. It is the effort of this book to underscore the concept of concurrent, parallel pathway specialization development, moving away from polarized approaches, towards the integration of pain care in the surgeons’ practice. This integration of specialties is the diversity seen in the multidisciplinary approach of the neuromodulation community.--Preface.

The concept of integrating pain management into the surgical process as a single entity is new and exciting. The use of local anaesthetic to block post-operative pain at the site of its generation is here refined into a management program allowing early mobilisation and dramatic pain control in the early post-operative period. This multimodal technique is demonstrated here with application to lower limb arthroplasty and spinal surgery. This is not only a detailed explanation and instruction in …

Abstract
The concept of integrating pain management into the surgical process as a single entity is new and exciting. The use of local anaesthetic to block post-operative pain at the site of its generation is here refined into a management program allowing early mobilisation and dramatic pain control in the early post-operative period. This multimodal technique is demonstrated here with application to lower limb arthroplasty and spinal surgery. This is not only a detailed explanation and instruction in the technique and concept, but a historical perspective on its development, and will be of great interest to all orthopaedic surgeons as well as anaesthetists.
