Course Description
Dr. Bertram presents on the dynamic in First Nations, Metis, & Inuit community between pain, trauma, and cultural adaptation. How it influences pain management, the opioid crisis, and our understanding of the brain. Importantly, how these are all elements that are a part of how our First Peoples can uniquely lead the initiative to effectively manage chronic pain in the individual and as a population phenomenon.
You will learn:
- about historical trauma's relevance to pain neurobiology
- the intersection of opioid addiction in trauma and pain in First Nations, Metis, & Inuit People
- cultural differences in pain reporting in select First Nations, Metis, Inuit settings
