The American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians and the Interventional Pain Management Tracks will return to the PAINWeek National Conference, taking place Sept. 6-9 in Las Vegas.
“ASIPP has a long-standing relationship with PAINWeek. Together, they’ve organized a series of lectures with ASIPP key leaders as speakers to help explain the importance of interventional pain management procedures in managing pain conditions,” Nick Knezevic, MD, PhD, clinical professor of anesthesiology and surgery at the University of Illinois Chicago, stated in a press release from the conference.
Knezevic, as a part of the lecture series, will be presenting “Atomic secrets: Regenerative medicine in managing chronic pain.” He will be accompanied by Kiran Patel, MD, of The Spine & Pain Institute of New York, Mayank Gupta, MD, of the Kansas Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, and Alaa Abd-Elsayed, MD, MPH, FASA, of the University of Wisconsin’s School of Medicine and Public Health.
“PAINWeek has always been one of my favorite meetings because of its diversity and inclusion — it is the only meeting where I can join clinicians from all specialties who treat pain patients,” Sean Li, MD, president of the New Jersey Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, said in the release.
Li will be presenting “The petrified forest: Sacroiliac joint dysfunction and treatment update,” as well as “When stars align: The new era of peripheral nerve stimulation.”
Additionally, Johnathan Goree, MD, and Carrie Hyde, MD, both of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, will debate and discuss the best approaches to low back pain, treatment philosophies and cost-benefit analysis.
The Interventional Pain Management Track will also feature lectures from Paul Christo, MD, MBA, director of the multidisciplinary pain fellowship program at Johns Hopkins Medicine, and Michael Bottros, MD, medical director of pain service at the University of Southern California.
