OVERVIEW
10th Royal Marsden Pain and Opioid Conference is organized by The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust and would be held during Nov 16 - 17, 2017 at The Royal Marsden School, London, England, United Kingdom.
Description :
Opioids still form the mainstay of many types of pain for both cancer and non-malignant pains. Although there is evidence for their effect, opioids also are associated with significant side effects in the short and long term. This day will examine these varied aspects of opioids from targeting multiple receptors to a detailed examination of adverse gastrointestinal effects. We will also hear up to date reviews on opioids for non-malignant pain, addiction, the use of opioids at end of life and in paediatric practice from experts in these fields. The programme aims to update practitioners with useful and informative facts that will keep their opioid knowledge fresh and contemporaneous.
Conference Aim :
• Opioids are commonly used for the management of severe pain.
• This conference presents new information concerning opioids examining scientific and clinical subjects germane to patients and practitioners. Novel opioid-related topics and updates on existing issues will seek to educate those who deal with opioids in whatever professional capacity.

Conference Topics include:
• Implications of basic science
• Opioids in clinical practice
