This paper evaluates acute pain management strategies for endometriosis within the emergency department setting. It identifies nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and nerve blocks as effective interventions, with nerve blocks providing a notable opioid-sparing alternative for patients experiencing severe symptoms. The authors distinguish these immediate relief measures from long-term treatment approaches, such as hormonal therapy, which are better suited for outpatient care rather than emergency intervention. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on the pharmacological and procedural management of acute pelvic pain in an emergency medical context.
