Résumé

Le Québec a adopté, au cours des dernières années, une vision de l’organisation des services axée sur une approche populationnelle et hiérarchisée pour les personnes souffrant de douleur chronique. Cette vision intègre les volets de la clinique, de la formation et de la recherche et s’inspire des pratiques exemplaires dégagées de la mise sur pied précédente du réseau québécois de traumatologie. Le déploiement progressif du réseau de prise en charge de la douleur chronique permet déjà d’entrevoir des résultats encourageants.

Abstract

Quebec has adopted in recent years a vision of the organization of services focused on networking and prioritization for people with chronic pain. This vision encompasses aspects of clinical work, training and research in a network inspired by the learnings extracted from the implementation of the Quebec trauma system, which has already demonstrated its very convincing results. The setup of the network for the management of chronic pain is already in progress and it provides encouraging results.
