Brief summary (from the registry)
Chronic postsurgical pain is a health problem with a great societal impact: approximately 20% of all children and adolescents undergoing surgery will develop chronic pain. Importantly, the risk and protective factors that are known (e.g., anxiety, catastrophizing, pain beliefs and pain coping) are modifiable, thus there is a huge potential for the development of both preventive and protective programs to avoid the transition from acute to chronic pain or reduce the impact in the lives of patients when it has already developed.
