Approximately 28% of youth undergoing major surgery develop chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP). Growing evidence from surgical populations identifies psychosocial factors\, such as anxiety and low mood\, as driving forces for poor pain outcomes. Psychosocial assessment during the pre-surgical or acute pain period can inform early intervention and treatment to improve pain outcomes. These adverse health-related outcomes before and after surgery are addressable and some are preventable\, yet there remains a dearth of developmentally-tailored psychosocial and educational interventions to optimize pediatric perioperative outcomes. Dr. Rosenbloom will discuss who is at higher risk for persistent pain after surgery and the evidence for psychosocial interventions to help improve outcomes. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Event Details\n Free\n \n \n \n Date\n July 21\, 2025 @ 9:30 am \n \n \n Time\n 9:30 am PDT – 2:00 pm PDT \n \n \n \n \n Register Now\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n ABOUT THE SPEAKER\n \n \n Dr. Brittany Rosenbloom\, C.Psych.\n \n \n \n \n Clinical and Health Psychologist\, Toronto Academic Pain Medicine Institute (TAPMI)\nAssociate Scientist\, Women’s College Hospital\nAssistant Professor\, Affiliated Scientist\, University of Toronto \n \n \n\n \n \n Dr. Brittany Rosenbloom is a Clinical and Health Psychologist at the Toronto Academic Pain Medicine Institute (TAPMI) and an Associate Scientist at Women’s College Hospital and Assistant Professor\, Affiliated Scientist at the University of Toronto. Clinically\, she was trained across the lifespan and approaches each person with a developmental and biopsychosocial lens. Her research focuses on understanding why some individuals develop chronic pain alongside mental health conditions such as depression\, anxiety\, and PTSD\, and on designing integrated treatments for these co-occurring concerns. Dr. Rosenbloom’s work bridges science and clinical practice\, utilizing evidence-based approaches to help patients receive timely and effective care throughout their lifespan. \n \n \n\n \n Read More\n \n \n \n \n \n \n ABOUT THE MODERATOR\n \n \n Alvina Rosales\, PhD\n \n \n \n \n Lead Psychologist\nClinical Associate Professor of Anesthesiology (Clinician Educator)\, Keck School of Medicine of USC \n \n \n\n \n \n Dr. Rosales oversees psychological services within the division of Pain Medicine\, both inpatient and in the Pain Medicine Clinic.
