In this video I discuss how to conduct a pain assessment using the PQRST mnemonic. I also demonstrate how to perform a pain assessment interview on a "patient."

Follow along and study by answering these questions.
1. What do provocation and palliation mean?
2. How can we describe the quality of pain?
3. What is the difference between radiating and referred pain?
4. What is pain tolerance?
5. What is the difference between acute and chronic pain?

Got a video request? Let me know in the comments below.
