Pain Management

The Department of Pain Management is a comprehensive specialty integrating clinical practice, research, and education. It has a well-structured team and outstanding experts, equipped with a full array of pain management devices, and has accumulated extensive experience in the diagnosis and minimally invasive interventional treatment of chronic pain.

This department consists of three subspecialties: bone and joint pain, neuropathic pain, and cancer pain. It is equipped with advanced technologies such as color Doppler ultrasound, ozone therapy devices, low-temperature plasma units, radiofrequency ablation systems, shock wave therapy instruments, PRP centrifuges, and intervertebral endoscopic surgical systems. Techniques include local injection, Huangdi Neizhen (traditional Chinese acupuncture method), needle-knife therapy, and PRP, used to treat various pain syndromes and difficult cases such as spine-related diseases, osteoarthritis, neuralgia, soft tissue disorders, complex chronic pain syndromes, sudden deafness, and gastroparesis. 

The Department of Pain Management has also pioneered minimally invasive procedures for cervical and lumbar diseases, neuropathic pain, cancer pain, visceral pain, and ischemic vascular pain. Pain control for terminal cancer patients is a key focus, supported by collaboration with the hospital’s medical consortium and modern information technology, enabling co-management of cancer pain patients with community hospitals.

The department is committed to basic and clinical pain research; team members have led or participated in numerous national and provincial research programs, such as the National Natural Science Foundation and the Capital Health Development Special Funding, and have published dozens of articles in SCI and domestic journals. Guiding this work is a fundemental ethos shared by our clinical staff: that relieving pain is both a patient’s basic right, and our sacred duty.
