Pain management education is lacking in medical education, especially pediatrics. Using beanbags constructed to represent commonly used opioids with areas proportional to the drugs' potencies, this hands-on approach is used in small-group sessions to introduce opioid dosing, potencies, and rotation through case-based exercises. Next steps will include analysis of impact using pre- and post-intervention surveys.
