AbstractAn acute pain service done by surgeons is one possibility for organizing pain therapy in surgical wards. To do this successfully, some preconditions must be kept in mind, such as 24-h presence, an integrated system of documentation, and teamwork between medical and nursing staff. Comparison of differently structured pain therapy in three different hospitals (with and without acute pain service) showed high levels of patient satisfaction with the pain therapies in all three hospitals. One of the preconditions for effective pain therapy in surgery is to formulate a concept which takes into account the specific situation of each hospital.
