Mission statement:
The pain special interest group of the ISPRM is committed to improving the health status of people who suffer with pain through leadership and excellence in education, delivery of evidence based clinical care, expanding the horizons of medical knowledge through advancing research. We also plan to drive transformation and innovation in care delivery by engaging with and inspiring PRM practitioners to provide evidence based care in a multidisciplinary model. Using the ISPRM conferences we plan to attract and enhance relationships with physiatrists, scientists and researchers as well as other health care professionals. We also plan to promote the rights and choices of individuals who suffer from pain.
