Opioids are useful in managing moderate or severe chronic pain. Multimodal approaches are used for the management of chronic pain. Moreover, it is not clear how patients are addressed to access different pain clinics (spoke versus hub) networks. More widespread adoption is needed for an interdisciplinary approach to managing chronic pain and adopting guideline recommendations, and rigorous research is required to provide more substantial evidence and support clinical practice.
