Assessment brings its own relief. Nursing care of individuals suffering from ischaemic leg pain.
Although pain has been the focus for much recent nursing research, little attention has been paid to relief of ischaemic leg pain. A structured and thorough assessment, which clearly identifies the pain experienced, and the use of analgesia and complementary methods of pain control can help reduce the chronic pain associated with this condition.
