Barriers to and facilitators of postoperative pain management do not exist independently but are reciprocally linked. This finding calls for holistic and inclusive interventions targeting healthcare professionals, patients, and hospital officials.

Patients should also be educated, and the hospital environment should be modified to provide high-quality postoperative pain management.
