A data visualization that explains the difference between Persistent Pain (constant pain that lasts all day) and Breakthrough Pain (temporary pain that lasts only awhile) in pain assessment. It appears to be a run chart at first glance but does not have labels on what would be its x-axis (representing time) or its y-axis (representing intensity of pain). Rather it suggests that pain levels may spike suddenly and that pain scores above a certain threshold may be conceptualized as Breakthrough Pain. The background is white with graphic elements in red orange and light blue with text in red and white.
