Abstract

Many evidence-based practices, such as interdisciplinary teams (IDT) for chronic pain, are mandated in clinical settings. However, the number of pain IDT programs continues to decline, limiting access to evidence-based treatment. The aim of this review is to determine the degree to which pain IDT programs and the studies describing those programs have adopted best practices that improve replicability and sustainability.
