Aims and Scope
IJP advances evidence-based pain management by publishing rigorous clinical and translational research that improves diagnosis, treatment pathways, and patient outcomes. Our scope is aligned with the Call for Papers focus on pain mechanisms, innovative therapies, and multidisciplinary care.
Pain Management Research
Studies on pain mechanisms, innovative treatments, holistic approaches, and advances in pain science.
Clinical Insights
Clinical trials, comparative studies, and outcomes research that improve patient care and treatment effectiveness.
Multidisciplinary Collaboration
Integrated work across pain medicine, neurology, psychology, physiotherapy, anesthesiology, and related fields.
Acute and Chronic Pain
Assessment, progression, and evidence-based management strategies for diverse pain conditions.
Neuropathic and Cancer Pain
Mechanisms, clinical pathways, and targeted interventions for complex pain syndromes.
Interventional Pain Care
Procedures, neuromodulation, and minimally invasive techniques for pain relief.
Pharmacologic and Non-Pharmacologic Therapy
Analgesics, adjuvant therapies, rehabilitation, and integrative approaches to pain management.
Pain Measurement and Biomarkers
Validated assessment tools, outcome measures, and translational biomarkers.
Behavioral and Psychosocial Care
Psychological interventions, patient education, and quality-of-life outcomes.
Aligned with CFP priorities: We prioritize submissions that bridge mechanistic insight with practical clinical applications, improving real-world pain care delivery and patient outcomes.
