Damian Sanchez: 我是一位爵士乐音乐家,对音乐充满热情。一次车祸使我面临是否使用阿片类止痛药的艰难选择。因为家族有药物滥用史,我非常担心上瘾,所以即使在剧痛中,我也拒绝使用止痛药,选择自己忍受。那段经历非常痛苦,但我不想放弃音乐,音乐是我生活的重心。 Jordan Gaspore: 本期播客关注急性疼痛,并探讨Vertex公司如何将疼痛视为一种独特的疾病进行研究,寻找非阿片类药物的治疗方案。Vertex正在研究创新方法,基于对疾病潜在机制的理解,以期为患者带来改变。 Norman Buckley: 疼痛是身体的警告系统,但持续疼痛可能提示其他问题。医生使用药物管理疼痛已有数百年历史,但阿片类药物存在耐受性和成瘾风险。疼痛管理创新进展缓慢,因为疼痛既普遍又复杂,且受多种因素影响。

Shownotes Transcript

Damian Sanchez, (Damian J to music fans) is a Miami-based jazz musician. A car accident landed him in the hospital with multiple fractures to his leg. Once there, he faced the difficult decision of whether or not to take the pain medication that was offered to him. With patients like Damian in mind, Dr. Paul Negulescu and the research team at Vertex are thinking differently about pain – they’re investigating potential non-opioid based treatment options that aim to target pain differently.
