Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue entitled “Clinical Updates on Perioperative Pain Management: 3rd Edition”. In the previous volume of this Special Issue, we published eight papers. For more details, please visit:

Pain is a personal experience that is influenced to varying degrees by biological, psychological, and social factors. Optimal perioperative pain management positively impacts the quality of patients’ recovery, reducing the incidence of complications.
For this reason, multimodal approaches such as regional anesthesia techniques, analgesics drugs, and rehabilitation programs play a key role in the field, with research aiming to improve perioperative analgesia. This Special Issue welcomes the submission of original high-quality articles that address the use of innovative regional anesthesia techniques, such as neuraxial blocks, peripheral nerve blocks, and fascial plane blocks, in the treatment of perioperative pain. Moreover, we welcome the submission of papers that investigate the use of specific drugs, rehabilitation protocols, or innovative devices to manage perioperative analgesia. Contributions may be in the form of research papers, original studies, or reviews.
