The personal and societal impact of chronic pain in the survivor population represents an area of significant unmet need.

This review looks to summarise the most recent evidence regarding the use of capsaicin in the management of cancer pain.RECENT FINDINGSVarious international guidelines have recently endorsed the use of high concentration capsaicin patches in the treatment of chronic painful chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. Numerous studies support the use of capsaicin in the treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain. This promising data is predominantly yielded from pain secondary to herpes zoster and diabetic neuropathy, with an expanding but small evidence base for its utility in other neuropathic pains. Emerging data suggests that treatments are better tolerated and provide analgesia more rapidly when compared with systemic treatments.SUMMARYWhilst randomised controlled trial data in the treatment of cancer pain are lacking, recent large cohort studies, and international guidelines, support the use of high concentration capsaicin patches in a wide variety of neuropathic pain secondary to cancer treatments.","PeriodicalId":48837,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Supportive and Palliative Care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a variety of non-oncological settings such as pre-hospital transport and minor outpatient procedures, amongst others, IMF has significantly reduced acute pain. As IMF has the capacity to provide appreciable pain relief but is not as widely used as other acute analgesics (i.e., opioids), this review of past and current literature hopes to explore the impact of inhaled IMF on patient outcomes, procedures where it could be used, and to inform readers about this compound.RECENT FINDINGSIn general, patients who used IMF had decreased pain, improved psychosocial factors (i.e., reduced anxiety, improved satisfaction), and minimal adverse events thereby being concluded as safe for use.SUMMARYFuture use in remote medical interventions such as military contexts, in emergency room settings, and administration under the supervision of first responders such as non-paramedic and non-HCPs further broadens the scope of settings where IMF can meaningfully be implemented.","PeriodicalId":48837,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Supportive and Palliative Care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142264604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
