A fascinating episode this week where we talk to Tracy Brown – an award winning pharmacist working in Glasgow. As well as running primary care pain clinics Tracy runs the Pain Teach and Treat Programme. We chat about the difficulties of supporting people with chronic pain along with the concept of Analgesic Stewardship. As ever we throw a bit of behaviour change into the mix.
Our micro-discussion focuses on General Practice responses to opioid prescribing feedback – a paper which examines how detailed feedback to prescribers can improve patient care [ Ссылка ].

As with all our guests we ask Tracy to pick her ‘Desert Island Drug’, a career defining anthem and a book that has influenced her work. The choices do not disappoint.

We reference a number of pain resources – these include;
- Live Well with Pain – [ Ссылка ]
- Flipping Pain – [ Ссылка ]
