Current Bibliographies in Medicine: Integration of Behavioral and RelaxationApproaches into the Treatment of Chronic Pain and Insomnia (1147 Citations)

摘要

The treatment of many chronic diseases is facilitated by integrating somatictherapies such as drugs and surgery with psychological and behavioral interventions. Chronic pain and insomnia are particularly good examples of conditions for which integrated treatment has been beneficial. This bibliography was prepared in support of the National Institutes of Health Technology Assessment Conference on the Integration of Behavioral and Relaxational Approaches into the Treatment of Chronic Pain and Insomnia, held in Bethesda, Maryland, October 16-18, 1995. Because the literature is large, the bibliography is necessarily selective. It emphasizes monographs and journal articles published in English from January 1985 through July 1995. Preference was given to articles dealing with adult human subjects. The bibliography is arranged with categories devoted to assessment, psychological and behavioral interventions, and somatic treatments. Also included is a section on methods and policy issues. Within each category, arrangement is alphabetical by author.
