Conclusions
Many postcraniotomy patients experience their pain as tolerable and/or pain management as satisfying and effective; others experience pain and pain management as challenging.
Implications for Practice
Clinicians should be attuned to needs of patients with complex pain management experiences and should incorporate good patient/clinician communication.
