AB  - Pain  is  the  most  common  symptom  of  disease.  It  is  defined  as  an  unpleasant  sensory  and  emotional  experience,  associated  with  actual  or  potential  tissue  damage.  There  are  sound  medical  and  legal  reasons  to  treat  pain  aggressively  in  hospitalized  patients.  The  Joint  Commission,  which  certifies  all  health  care  institutions  in  the  United  States,  mandates  that  all  patients  have  the  right  to  adequate  pain  assessment  and  management  (Table  49-1).
