Pain medicine and perioperative care play a central role in improving patient outcomes and enhancing recovery following surgery. Effective management of pain during the perioperative period not only alleviates discomfort but also reduces the risk of complications such as prolonged hospital stays, delayed healing, and poor functional recovery. An integrated approach involving multimodal analgesia, regional anesthesia, and opioid-sparing strategies is essential for optimal pain control. Recent advancements in pain medicine focus on personalized treatment protocols based on individual patient factors, ensuring more precise and effective pain management. Additionally, non-pharmacological therapies, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and physical therapy, are increasingly incorporated into perioperative care plans, supporting holistic recovery and improving the overall surgical experience.
