Kuttner (2006) indicates that it is rare to achieve total neuropathic pain relief using a single approach, and that implementing an interdisciplinary approach to pain management involving doctors, nurses, social workers, physiotherapists, chaplains, play therapists and others, as well as the child’s family, is likely to be the most successful
method. Management approaches can be broadly categorised as pharmacological or nonpharmacological.
However, it is important to note that children with severe neuropathic pain may need it to be treated as a medical emergency.
If left untreated for any reason pain can rapidly escalate and become out of control (Jassal, 2011).
Mercadante (2004) suggests that pain in childhood can lead to increased morbidity.
Consequently, management may require the child’s admission to hospital for intravenous access to obtain rapid pain control.
