Abstract Description

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are nearly twice as likely to experience chronic pain than those in the general population. Our paediatric pain service has higher than anticipated levels of ASD. We need to ensure that our paediatric pain service MDTs and clinical/therapy sessions are inclusive for children with ASD to facilitate successful management.
