Pain incidence, assessment, and management in Vietnam: a cross-sectional study of 12,136 respondents.
Conclusion: Pain severe enough to impact patients' daily lives is common in Vietnam. Treatment costs are a significant economic burden and may help explain why only a minority of patients seek treatment. Access to lower cost, effective treatment for pain should be improved.
