Validation of the ratio scale of the differents types of pain

Postoperative pain management in children is a complex, multidimensional and subjective phenomenon. It represents a challenge for children, parents and health professionals. This study aimed to understand how mothers assess their children's pain management by the nursing team in the late postoperative phase of cardiac surgery. Empirical data collection was carried out through semistructured interviews with 17 mothers who accompanied their children. Data were subject to qualitative analysis, revealing that, for the mothers, taking good care results from the confidence they vest in the nursing team and from the observation of the medication interventions this team performs. Not taking good care of their children is a consequence of lack of information or inadequate communication between the team and the mothers. The results of this study permit identifying aspects that strengthen and weaken nursing care for these clients, contributing to the improvement of the delivered care. El manejo del dolor en niños, en el posoperatorio tardío de cirugía cardíaca, por los profesionales de enfermería, bajo la perspectiva de las madresEl manejo del dolor posoperatorio en el niño es un fenómeno complejo, multidimensional y subjetivo; siendo que se constituye en un desafío para los niños, padres y profesionales de la salud. El objetivo de este trabajo fue comprender como las madres evalúan el manejo del dolor de sus hijos, realizado por el equipo de enfermería, en el posoperatorio tardío de cirugía cardíaca. La recolección de datos empíricos fue realizada por medio de entrevista semiestructurada con 17 madres que acompañaron a sus hijos. Los datos fueron analizados cualitativamente. Aprendimos que para las madres cuidar bien es resultante de la confianza que ellas depositan en el equipo de enfermería y de la observación de las intervenciones medicamentosas que ese equipo realiza. El no cuidar bien de sus hijos es consecuencia de la falta de información o comunicación inadecuada entre el equipo y las madres. Los resultados de este estudio posibilitaron identificar aspectos que pueden fortalecer o fragilizar el cuidado de enfermería a esa clientela, de esa manera contribuyendo para la mejoría del cuidado prestado.

Objective: The need to quantify pain and quality of life (QoL) is essential for professionals considering their therapeutic approach. The goal of this review is to identify the methods to perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of pain and QoL validated in Brazil. Methods: Review by the LILACS, SciELO, MedLine and Google Scholar databases with the descriptors: methods, qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis, pain and quality of life. Inclusion criteria: articles published in Portuguese and in English in the period from 1996 to 2015. Exclusion criteria: incomplete texts, articles that did not address the subject of study and duplicate articles in the databases. Results: After applying the eligibility criteria, 27 articles were selected for reading, being that one article was excluded by presenting irrelevant result and another was excluded by duplication. From the 25 articles, one was published in 2015, three in 2014, one in 2013, three in 2012, five in 2011, two in 2010, three in 2009, four in 2008, two in 2004 and one in 1996. In relation to the studies, nine were clinical trials, 10 systematic reviews, five cross-sectional studies and one essay. Conclusion The most frequently methods applied are the VAS and the McGill’s Questionnaire, considering the multidimensional pain assessment. The most commonly used questionnaire to evaluate QoL is the SF-36. There is great difficulty to classify methods for assessing pain and QoL (qualitative or quantitative methods), since many authors report the same method when addressing the two interfaces.

“…There are different ways to manage burned patients pain and gaps related to the treatment of burn-related acute pain by the nursing team are noticeable 2,3 . So, since the treatment of burned patients is characterized as painful and considering that the effective care meets assistance objectives and ensures nursing team service quality, it is clear the importance of the subject 5 . Taking into account the gap detected by the literature with regard to nursing assistance to burn-related acute pain patients, this study is justified based on the expectation of contributing to future patients' quality of life improvement and to the nursing service condition, so that their participative role is more proactive during the process, in addition to providing input for future studies.…”
