FACULTY Timothy R. Deer, MD, DABPM President and Chief Executive Officer Center for Pain Relief, Inc. Charleston, West Virginia
Timothy Deer, MD, was born and raised in Chesapeake, West Virginia. During the last decade, he has originated many ideas that have been incorporated into the mainstream of present day theory and practice of interventional pain management. Dr. Deer completed his medical school education at West Virginia University, where he was an Alpha Omega Alpha honor student at the top of his class. After medical school, Dr. Deer attended the University of Virginia School of Medicine, where he did his training in Internal Medicine, Anesthesiology, and Pain Medicine. Over the past 13 years, Dr. Deer has held numerous appointments including the Chairman of the American Society of Anesthesiologists’ Committee on Pain Medicine. This 42,000 member group represents more pain clinicians than any other organized body. Dr. Deer has also been President of the West Virginia Society of Anesthesiologists, President of the West Virginia Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, and Representative to the Carrier Advisory Committee to Medicare for Ohio and West Virginia. In addition to those activities, Dr. Deer is on the Board of Directors for the North American Neuromodulation Society. He is also on the editorial committees for the journals Neuromodulation, Pain Medicine, and Pain Physician.

TARGET AUDIENCE This educational activity is targeted to an audience of pain specialists and other health care providers involved in the management of patients with chronic pain who are candidates for intrathecal drug delivery.
STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW Chronic pain affects an estimated 100 million adults in the United States.1 Because of the diversity of patient background and of chronic pain conditions, mechanisms, and clinical manifestations, a large population of patients is unable to achieve adequate pain relief or attainable functional goals.2 When patients are refractory to conventional medical management, intrathecal delivery of analgesics may provide certain advantages. Over the last 3 decades, the more than 300,000 patients who have received implanted pumps for a variety of indications have helped establish intrathecal therapy as a safe and effective method of drug delivery.3,4 Two analgesic agents have been approved for intrathecal use by the US Food and Drug Administration: ziconotide and morphine.5 Nevertheless, intrathecal therapy may be underutilized owing to poor patient selection, safety concerns, and other systemic barriers.6 This Interactive Professor™ program will provide data and guidance on evaluating patients who are candidates for intrathecal drug delivery, initiating intrathecal therapy for chronic pain, and tailoring therapy to reflect ongoing monitoring.
