Cost and risk assessment in medicine requires evaluation of objective and subjective parameters. Objectively correct medicamentous treatment of chronic pain is cost-effective, above all by reducing expensive hospitalization. The greatest benefit for the patient comes from improved quality of life and increased independence and mobility. Side effects of drugs are inevitable but can be controlled successfully in most instances.
医学中的成本和风险评估需要对客观和主观参数进行评估。对慢性疼痛进行客观正确的药物治疗具有成本效益,尤其是通过减少昂贵的住院治疗。对患者最大的益处来自生活质量的改善以及独立性和行动能力的提高。药物的副作用不可避免,但在大多数情况下可以成功控制。
