Context: Le mouvement des hospices en Grand Bretagne, la création d’unités de soins palliatifs et de services d’algologie semblent montrer que pratiquement toutes les douleurs sont en mesure d’être soulagées et ce à la fois par les moyens pharmacologiques habituels (tous les antalgiques) associés ou non à des interventions plus psychologiques (entretiens, relaxation, sophrologie), sans parler d’interventions plus radicales telle la neurochirugie.
