Nurses are needed to work night shift because patients in acute care, subacute, and long-term care facilities require round-the-clock care. A systematic review on the experiences and perceptions of nurses working the night shift in varied settings found the night shift work environment is different and night shift nurses juggle their sleep and deal with ongoing sleep deprivation. Based on the systematic review and the evidence that forewarns of the physical and psychological burden of night shift work, recommendations are made for employers and nurses to navigate the challenges posed to those working against their circadian rhythm.

This cross-sectional study investigated the factors affecting pain intensity among Korean women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (n = 246). Data included pain site and intensity, physical function, fatigue, medication attitudes, and learned helplessness (LH) from patient self-report, and Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28) from chart review. The overall pain intensity was 3.59 out of 10, with a median of 3. The mean number of painful joints was 8.4, with the most commonly reported painful joint groups being the fingers, wrists, and knees. Higher DAS28, impaired physical function, eight or more painful joints, higher levels of fatigue, and higher levels of LH were significantly associated with pain intensity. Our results suggest that pain in women with RA is closely associated with cognitive or psychological variables such as fatigue and LH in addition to inflammation itself. For improved pain management, patients with RA should receive regular counseling to address their feelings of LH and fatigue.

As the prevalence of opioid use disorder (OUD) continues to rise, it is crucial clinicians are prepared to deliver safe and effective therapy to individuals affected by this disorder. The occurrence of pain among patients with OUD is not uncommon; effective management is complex and requires a comprehensive approach developed in collaboration with patients, their families and specialists in substance use disorders. Most patients with OUD require long-term treatment. For many, this involves chronic medications including buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone. First-line pain management therapy with nonpharmacologic or non-opioid pharmacotherapy, including multimodal strategies should be maximized first and tailored to underlying pain etiology. In some settings, patients may require additional opioid medications for pain control. In this review, we describe an approach to pain management in patients receiving medications for OUD as well as those with untreated OUD.
