www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... Prenatal paracetamol exposure and child neurodevelopment: a systematic review and meta-analysis
The estimated prevalence of chronic post-surgical pain was 7.2% - 1 in 14 patients!
It was associated with:
• week 1 pain scores
• orthopaedic, breast & plastic surgery
• non-surgical site chronic pain at baseline
• deprivation
• ethnicity
#AnSky #PainSky #SurgSky
Many patients are still in pain 3 months after their surgery.
Certain procedures have much higher rates of chronic pain after 3 months, including orthopaedic (35%), breast (15%) & gynaecological (11%).

Spent a thoroughly enjoyable day today putting together the programme for @britishpainsoc.bsky.social 2026 annual scientific meeting in Harrogate. A great pleasure to work with such brilliant colleagues. Last time meeting at the RCoA also.
One of the central messages from the CRIISP Showcase in Oct: chronic pain affects far more than the body. It shapes identity, relationships, work, and daily life. Understanding these layers is vital for improving care and support.
