Pain--it is the most common complaint presented to physicians. Yet pain is subjective--it
cannot be measured directly and is difficult to validate. Evaluating claims based
on pain poses major problems for the Social Security Administration (SSA) and other
disability insurers. This volume covers the epidemiology and physiology of pain;
psychosocial contributions to pain and illness behavior; promising ways of assessing
and measuring chronic pain and dysfunction; clinical aspects of prevention, diagnosis,
treatment, and rehabilitation; and how the SSA's benefit structure and administrative
procedures may affect pain complaints.

Through observations in three intensive care units, this book draws on the reality
of practice to explore how nurses and doctors work in intensive care settings. It
examines: the power held by the competing knowledge bases; the roles of the different
professions; the decision-making process; the sources of conflict; the need for change.
Drawing together sociological theories and clinical practice, Power and Conflict
Between Doctors and Nurses explores the role of nurses in delivering contemporary
health care. It makes a strong case for interdisciplinary working and is particularly
timely when health care policy is challenging work boundaries in health care.
