Program Overview
Despite the prevalence of pain among patients seeking medical attention, pain is often inadequately treated. Many physicians are uncomfortable treating pain with certain analgesics, and others do not know when or where to refer their patients. PainExam.com is an online examination designed to test the physicians awareness of painful disorders, and how to properly treat them. Though it’s main function is to prepare physicians for the pain boards, it can be a helpful tool to any healthcare provider seeking to understand the pathology, diagnosis and treatment or pain disorders, ranging from the most common, to the most rare. There are eleven exams, each with fifty questions. After completion of each exam, the user will receive a score, and feedback on his or her answers.
