AB AS  THE  NAME  INFERS,  COMPLEX  REGIONAL  PAIN  syndrome  (CRPS)  is  a  multifarious,  painful  condition  that  most  commonly  affects  an  extremity  following  a  noxious  event.  Management  of  this  complicated  disorder  is  typically  challenging,  as  the  pathogenesis  and  natural  history  of  CRPS  are  incompletely  characterized,  and  a  multifaceted  biopsychosocial  process  is  invariably  involved.  Subsequently,  an  interdisciplinary  treatment  approach  among  qualified  specialists  is  mandatory  to  thoroughly  address  all  aspects  of  this  disease.  A  coordinated  approach  targeting  biomedical  and  psychosocial  rehabilitation  has  been  shown  to  augment  outcomes.  This  chapter  will  review  the  diagnostic  criteria  and  pathogenesis  of  CRPS  and  focus  on  the  multimodal,  evidence-based  treatments  shown  to  optimize  functional  restoration.
