Abstract

Cognitive impairments in patients with chronic pain are increasingly attracting interest in scientific research. The consequences of these cognitive impairments on coping with pain, everyday life and the driving ability are rarely included in clinical practice although half of all patients are affected. This article summarizes the current research situation and discusses possibilities of the integration in clinical and therapeutic care.
