Beyond doubt the provision of pain therapy for patients with acute and chronic pain in Germany has improved over the last 30 years. This positive development comprises i. e. the growing impact of acute pain services on the treatment of patients with postoperative pain and the implementation of new developments in research into the clinical setting of obstetric pain therapy. Nevertheless, the provision of pain therapy for patients with chronic pain syndromes, for children, and in the fields of cancer pain and palliative medicine is neither qualitatively nor quantitatively sufficient.
毫无疑问，在过去30年里，德国为急性和慢性疼痛患者提供的疼痛治疗有了改善。这一积极发展包括，例如急性疼痛服务对术后疼痛患者治疗的影响日益增大，以及将疼痛治疗研究中的新进展应用于产科疼痛治疗的临床实践。然而，在为慢性疼痛综合征患者、儿童以及癌症疼痛和姑息医学领域提供疼痛治疗方面，在质量和数量上都还不够。
