Abstract
Effective pain control is one of the mainstays of good palliative care in general practice. In various studies (Grossman et al, 1991; Field, 1996), health professionals have been shown to underestimate the level of pain that a patient is experiencing. It has also been shown that family members can overestimate the level of pain in their relative (Elliott et al, 1996).
