Brief Pain Inventory

The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) is a tool used to assess pain severity and its impact on daily life. It consists of questions that help patients describe their pain intensity and how it interferes with activities like walking, working, and sleeping. Healthcare providers use the BPI to understand a patient's pain experience better, guiding treatment decisions. It's a straightforward questionnaire that helps establish a comprehensive picture of how pain affects an individual's overall well-being, allowing for tailored management strategies.
