序一
It is a great privilege and honor to write the forward for Pain Management Nursing. Nursing by definition is a caring and compassionate profession.Inherent in that care and compassion is the obligation of every nurse to reduce pain and suffering.The editors have worked diligently to bring together scientific evidence and best nursing practice to guide and support all nurses.
为本书作序，我感到莫大荣幸。护理是一项照护、关爱他人的职业，其职业内涵规定了缓解患者的疼痛是每位护士的基本职责。本书的编写团队勤勉工作，向读者们呈现了疼痛护理领域的循证及最佳实践信息。本书的出版，将为疼痛护理实践提供指导，为临床护士提供支持。
The field of pain management is dynamic and growing with new knowledge.The editors and authors have put together a single source of useful and important information on the physiology, assessment, and management of pain.Chapters address pain in special populations, acute pain, chronic pain, and cancer pain.Updated information on assessing pain and opioid induced sedation and pain's impact on patients'emotional health and ability to perform basic daily activities is covered.Pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions for treating pain are presented.As in all areas of nursing we continuously strive to improve the quality care we provide to patients experiencing pain.There is a chapter on quality improvement specific to pain management.The editors also included information on programs from outside of China that have had significant impact on pain management nursing.In the not too distant future, hospitals throughout China may have Pain Resource Nurse Programs and Advanced Practice Nurses, and I have witnessed the importance and value of both these for improving pain care.A comprehensive book such as this involves an incredible amount of work to ensure the material is accurate, up to date, and applicable at the point of care.
疼痛管理是一门充满活力的学科，并随着新知识的产生不断成长。本书的编写团队已经将解剖、评估和管理方面实用性强且十分重要的信息整合在一起。内容涵盖了特殊人群及急、慢性和癌症疼痛的管理，涉及了疼痛评估、阿片类药物引发的镇静反应、疼痛对患者心理健康及日常活动能力影响等，介绍了疼痛的药物和非药物干预措施。此外，和其他护理领域一样，疼痛护理也需要持续开展质量改进工作，因而本书专门设有一章阐述疼痛管理的质量改进。再者，本书还介绍了对中国疼痛护理产生较大影响的国外项目信息；我已经见证了来，越来越多的中国医院会开展这些项目。总之，本书涉及面广，上述知识点都有详尽的阐述。编写团队为之付出了大量心血，以确保本书内容的准确性、新颖性及实用性。
I want to thank the editors and authors for their unwavering commitment to provide this invaluable resource for the nurses of China.This book is a critical tool and resource for nurses dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by pain.
在此，我向本书的编写团队表达我的谢意。他们通过不懈努力，为中国护士提供了宝贵的学习资源。对于有志于从事疼痛护理，希望通过护理改善疼痛人群生活质量的护士而言，本书是重要的工具及学习资源。
