Message from the President As we near the second decade of the new millennium, it is a perfect time to review our accomplishments for the past year, and assess how we are meeting the overall long-term goals in our Strategic Plan. With that in mind, this Annual Report looks at some of the milestones of 2009 and the goals they support. These goals, highlighted at the top of every page, unite our diverse, international membership and keep our leadership focused as we prioritize our limited funds and limitless opportunities. As you read the report, you’ll see evidence of: Our commitment to an active, international, multidisciplinary membership through increased funding for visiting professor grants to chapters and for Council liaisons to travel to Asia and Latin America; Our efforts to raise public awareness of the need for improved pain relief through a more comprehensive campaign for the Global Year Against Pain® with many more translations of press releases and fact sheets; Ways we improved distribution of knowledge and information by increasing the use of electronic communications and enhancing our website to make it easier to access the journal PAIN®, pay dues, and buy IASP Press® books; Our commitment to promote pain research and improve pain management in the developing world and developed countries through increased grant funding, expansion of our developing countries education program, creation of new clinical fellowships in Latin America and Southeast Asia, and increased travel grants to allow more trainees and others to attend the World Congress on Pain®; Initiatives to strengthen IASP structure, performance, and visibility such as successful recruitment efforts to bring in new volunteers for our many committees, task forces, and working groups, and a new, updated brand that enhances our visibility and image. With the change in frequency of the World Congress on Pain to every two years, 2009 marked the first time IASP officers serve only two short years, from one Congress to the next. With shortened timelines and an ever-growing list of projects, it is gratifying to see what our elected Council members, volunteers, and staff accomplished. With your continued support and participation, I know that we will meet our goals as we work together for pain relief throughout the world. G. F. Gebhart, PhD

Special Interest Groups

A vital link between IASP and local pain researchers and clinicians, IASP’s chapters

Fourteen Special Interest Groups (SIGs) allow IASP clinicians and researchers

represent the pain issues and interests of each country, united by a shared vision

to network, share information and discuss shared special interests with their

of working together for pain relief throughout the world. IASP support for its

colleagues through online forums, e-newsletters, and meetings. In 2009, many

chapters was increased by $50,000 to fund visiting professor grants and other

of the SIGs held meetings, launched e-newsletters, or published information on

activities. Chapters are encouraged to share their news with others through the IASP

the website for their members. Among the highlights:

Meetings

“New Publications in Pediatric Pain,” a regularly updated blog that lists recent publications in the field of pediatric pain, was added to the Pain in Childhood SIG website at www.childpain.org/recentpubs. The Pain in Childhood SIG worked on the ChildKind Hospitals Initiative in partnership with the World Health Organization, Mayday Fund, and others. The Pain of Urogenital Origin (PUGO) SIG held a conference on “Convergences in Pelvi-Perineal Pain” in Nantes, France in December 2009. Many of the SIGs spent time planning meetings and symposia to take place in Montréal, Canada for the 13th World Congress on Pain.

In June 2009, the 8th annual IASP Research Symposium was held in Chicago, Illinois, USA, with a focus on cancer pain. The European Federation of Chapters of IASP (EFIC), which encompasses 31 countries and 15,000 pain researchers and clinicians in Europe, held its annual Congress, “Pain in Europe VI,” in Lisbon in September 2009. Planning for the 13th World Congress on Pain in 2010, led by Jeffrey Mogil, chair of the Scientific Program Committee, and Manon Choinière, chair of the Local Arrangements Committee, was in full swing in 2009, with a tight timeline due to the change in frequency from every three years to a biennial basis. As a result of member input, the Congress schedule was shortened by one day. Future Congresses will be held:

ADVOCACY Raise public awareness of the need for improved pain relief

Global Year Against Cancer Pain The Global Year Against Cancer Pain campaign, which launched in October 2008 with the theme of “Raising Awareness, Improving Treatment, Growing Support,” continued strong during 2009. Initially, 11 fact sheets were made available to the public. By the end of the campaign in October 2009, 21 fact

sheets were available in seven different languages (Arabic, Chinese, English,

French, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish). After a busy launch, many IASP chapters in 2009 continued to hold events in conjunction with the Global Year theme, such as: January 13, 2009: The Israel Pain Association, in conjunction with the Israel Oncologists’ Society, hosted a gallery show which showcased an artist who experiences cancer pain. March 11, 2009: Specialists from the German Pain Society offered information on cancer pain over a free nationwide hotline. July 24-25, 2009: The Asociacion Chilena para el Estudio del Dolor ran a course on Cancer Pain in Viña Del Mar. 6

Global Year Against Musculoskeletal Pain

From Symposium to SIG

The Global Year Against Musculoskeletal Pain, led by co-chairs Lars Arendt-Nielsen (Denmark) and Kathleen Sluka (Canada), launched in 2009 to draw attention to the disabling pain experienced from musculoskeletal disorders. The goals for the campaign included disseminating information on musculoskeletal pain worldwide, with a particular emphasis in developing countries; educating pain researchers and clinicians within IASP and the larger global community of health care professionals; increasing awareness of musculoskeletal pain among government officials, media, and the general public worldwide; and encouraging government leaders, research institutions, and other key decision-makers to support more research, ultimately producing more effective and accessible treatment methods and outcomes for people with musculoskeletal pain. A central theme—“When Moving Hurts… Assess, Understand, Take Action”—was chosen because musculoskeletal pain is a complex and far-reaching problem that encompasses many different types of pain including neck pain, limb pain, low back pain, joint pain, bone pain, and chronic widespread pain. The campaign launched on October 19, 2009 with a press release distributed globally in Chinese, English, French, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Spanish. On that date, the website offered 23 fact sheets for download in five languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, and Spanish). Chapter leaders volunteered to translate fact sheets into Danish, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese, and Serbian. In addition to translating fact sheets, many chapters offered translations of the logo and tagline, which were ultimately available in all the fact sheet languages plus Romanian, Sinhala, and Tamil. For the first time, the Global Year Task Force created an online discussion forum designated for the campaign. Throughout the year, case studies posted to the forum provided topics for discussion for 270 members of IASP who joined the forum. Also for the first time, IASP made the Global Year poster available in high-resolution files for download from the website, and offered a Global Year Event Checklist to help guide chapters and other groups to organize events or activities around the Global Year theme.

On June 4-5, 2009, the 8th IASP Research Symposium, “A Global Problem: Cancer Pain from the Laboratory to the Bedside,” took place in Chicago, Illinois, USA, providing a forum for in-depth discussion and analysis of basic and clinical research surrounding the problem of cancer pain. Conference organizers Judith Paice (USA), Eija Kalso (Finland), Olaitan Soyannwo (Nigeria), and Rae Bell (Norway), also edited a book based on the symposium, Cancer Pain: From Molecules to Suffering, which was published by IASP Press in 2010. The symposium attracted a diverse international audience of 55 participants along with 23 speakers and cochairs. Topics included basic mechanisms of cancer pain, inflammation and hyperalgesia in cancer pain, opioid tolerance, clinical trial designs in cancer pain, psychology of cancer pain, education, and international issues. Poster sessions were held to allow young investigators to share their research. In addition to the IASP grant for research symposia, industry support allowed registration fees to remain relatively low. Overwhelmingly positive evaluations requested that this conference be repeated on a regular basis. As a result of the interest shown, the Global Year Task Force moved forward with an application for a Cancer Pain Special Interest Group (SIG) within IASP.

ASEAPS 3rd Congress in Bali The Joint Meeting of the 3rd Congress of the Association of Southeast Asian Pain Societies (ASEAPS) and the Neuropathic Pain Special Interest Group (NeuPSIG) took place on April 17–20 in Sanur, Bali, Indonesia. ASEAPS President Idrus A. Paturusi (Indonesia) presided over the successful gathering, which drew nearly 700 attendees mainly from Southeast Asia. This three-day meeting, which was organized by A. Husni Tanra (Indonesia), featured talks by a number of leading pain researchers and clinicians from Southeast Asia and beyond, with sessions addressing many of the pain problems currently faced by countries in the region. While some countries have developed programs for pain management—in part because of the efforts of the IASP chapters behind ASEAPS—others, such as Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Brunei, Bhutan, and Myanmar, still lack the infrastructure to address their populations’ pain education and management issues. Troels S. Jensen (Denmark), Immediate-Past President of IASP, spoke at the opening session and presented an informative overview and history of IASP since its founding in 1973. IASP Executive Director Kathy Kreiter also participated, pledging IASP’s support for the Southeast Asian countries’ pain education needs. In addition, with financial support from IASP, nine physicians and two dentists from across the region traveled to Bali and took part in the meeting (see names in photo caption). Other IASP participants included IASP Councilors Cynthia Goh (Singapore) and Maged El Ansari (Egypt), Past IASP President Michael R. Bond (United Kingdom), and Past IASP Councilor and current NeuPSIG Chair Rolf-Detlef Treede (Germany). They, along with Jensen and Kreiter, met with the 11 sponsored attendees to explore the need for pain management and education in their respective countries and to see how IASP might help—perhaps by forming new chapters in those countries or assisting with pain education efforts. The sponsored attendees expressed gratitude for IASP’s support and were enthusiastic about forming pain groups in their countries. ASEAPS is comprised of pain experts from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

Report Highlights The Task Force on Wait-Times, chaired by Beverly Collett (UK), was established in January 2009 to conduct an audit of existing wait times and to develop recommendations that would serve as a basis for IASP-endorsed guidelines for medically acceptable wait times for treatment of chronic pain throughout the world. A Task Force on Summer School, chaired by Cynthia Goh (Singapore) was developed to explore expansion of the European “Summer School” that provides education and training in pain management. A recommendation was made to conduct this summer educational course in the three continents where pain services are just developing: Latin America, Africa, and Asia. In Latin America, IASP provided financial support for chapter meetings in Colombia, Ecuador, and Argentina by financing foreign speakers at chapter meetings, and by funding a course on Basic Science of Pain preceding the Congress of the Argentinean Chapter. In an effort to give assistance to help clinicians in countries that have limited pain management educational opportunities, IASP sponsored representatives from Bhutan, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka to attend the ASEAPS meeting in Bali. The attendees were able to network with other members of the pain communities and have since engaged in additional educational opportunities and fostered IASP membership in their countries. 17
