Summary In 1985 and 1990 postal questionnaires were sent to anaesthetic senior registrars in training in the United Kingdom to determine the extent of higher specialist training in chronic pain management. There were wide variations in training and experience amongst senior registrars. Overall there was little change between 1985 and 1990. In particular the number of anaesthetic senior registrars who felt equipped to undertake a consultant post with an interest in chronic pain management had not increased.
