AbstractCertain basic principles are applicable to all forms of pain treatment when the aims are pain relief and the avoidance of chronicety. Such algorithms, as guidelines are even more important when pain is becoming chronic. The use of the described algorithms is necessary in the diagnosis and therapy of acute pain and also to avoid the establishment of chronic pain due to the changes of neuroplasticity in the central nervous system. The most important basic principles in the form of algorithms are first of all that therapies should be simultaneously applied and not sequentially. Secondly, the challenge should be met to create a concept where by various therapies can be preformed in a parallel fashion, without compete one another and being effective on different aspects and causes of the pain.
