Interventions and Untreated Associated Pain in Individuals with Severe IDD

Many interventions used to treat physical disabilities are associated with acute pain. In an example of scoliosis surgery, it has been found that children and adolescents with severe intellectual disability receive significantly fewer analgesics after surgery compared to typical cases. This example is one case that shows how pain may go untreated in populations of those with severe intellectual disability.
