AnnotationBrief editorial looking at the management of pain in older people, a phenomenon often under-recognised and under-treated.

The guideline has been categorised into sections dealing with pharmacology, interventional therapies, psychological interventions, physical activity and assistive devices and complementary therapies. The full document _ `Guidance on the management of pain in older people' _ is available in supplement 1 which accompanies this journal issue. (JL).
