This presentation presents a complex surveyof pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic possibilities of the pain management, their advantages and risks. Because pain is symptom, not diagnosisand is very important for the diagnostic process, it is necessary to provide complex examination during pain relief to exclude injuries which can becovered by effective analgesia or analgosedation.
