American Society for Post Surgical Pain (ASPSP) Annual Scientific Meeting on Post-Surgical Pain 2025

American Society for Post Surgical Pain (ASPSP) Annual Scientific Meeting on Post-Surgical Pain is organized by American Society for Post Surgical Pain (ASPSP) and will be held from Sep 27 - 28, 2025 at USF Health CAMLS, Tampa, Florida, United States of America.

Description:
In an era of increasing surgical volumes and a persistent opioid crisis, the need for action in addressing post-surgical pain has never been more urgent. As physicians and scientists, we have the power to improve pain management and surgical outcomes through innovative approaches and by advancing the science behind superior treatment modalities.

While traditional anesthesiology conferences have concentrated on the delivery of anesthesia, and pain conferences on spine pain management, the critical issue of post-surgical pain management often remains under-addressed. Surgical conferences tend to focus on advancing surgical techniques, leaving a gap in comprehensive post-surgical care. Our annual conference is set to bridge this gap.

Conference Highlights:
Our conference will present a dynamic scientific program dedicated exclusively to the management of acute post-surgical pain in hospitals, sub-acute pain in the community, and chronic pain in medical offices.

A pivotal moment in our field was the awarding of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to Professors David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian for their discovery of temperature and pressure-sensitive receptors, including the TRPV1 receptor, essential for pain sensation. This breakthrough represents a significant opportunity for improving post-surgical pain management.

This event is essential for professionals across all surgical specialties, anesthesiology, emergency medicine, and physical therapy. It offers a unique platform for sharing insights and discussing strategies to enhance surgical pain management and outcomes.
