“…To assess pain in PCDs, physiological indicators, such as heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, or even methods that evaluate changes in skin electrical resistance can be used ( 3 ), as well as the use of one-dimensional scales that assess different behavioral responses associated with pain in cognitively impaired individuals ( 4 ). Dentists that treat PCDs must be aware of these pain assessment methods to establish the best treatment for their patients ( 11 , 12 ). In their study evaluating communication difficulties of hospitalized deaf patients, Sirch et al ( 39 ) suggested that all health professionals in clinical practice should be trained to develop technical skills for proper care of these patients, either in undergraduate courses or in advanced teaching programs.…”

“…The scientific literature highlights inadequate knowledge and self-awareness regarding pain assessment among dental students ( 1 , 7 , 8 ) and dentists ( 9 , 10 ). This deficiency has significant consequences, including under- and overtreatment of pain ( 3 , 11 , 12 ), which can contribute to various behavioral and physical disorders, cognitive decline, hospitalization, institutionalization, disability, and even premature death ( 13 ).…”

Pain is present in the dental clinic, whether due to oral problems such as dental caries and its complications or related to dental procedures. Pain evaluation in patients with communication difficulties (PCDs) is challenging for dentists, potentially compromising treatment. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an instrument to assess the perception of dentists about pain in PCDs. This study followed a quantitative methodological approach involving constructing and validating an instrument administered to 50 dentists. The initial instrument consisted of 29 items divided into four domains. Content and construct validity and internal consistency were confirmed. Content validation was performed by judges using the Content Validity Index. The instrument underwent construct validation and internal consistency assessments through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis using Cronbach's α, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin, and Bartlett's sphericity tests. The final instrument consisted of 21 items divided into three domains, with a high Cronbach's α for one domain and moderate values for the others. The total variance accounted for was above 46.03%. Each factor retained at least three items, with factor loadings greater than 0.3, commonalities greater than 0.2, and eigenvalues >1. Despite the study's limitations, the instrument demonstrated its applicability and potential in evaluating the perception and management of pain in PCDs.

“…A Associação Internacional para Estudos da Dor (IASP) conceitua dor como "uma experiência angustiante associada a uma lesão tecidual real ou potencial com componentes sensoriais, emocionais, cognitivos e sociais" (IASP 2020). A dor é uma experiência subjetiva e pessoal (Thomaz 2010;Kawagoe et al 2017).…”

Sinopsis Introducción: El 14,5% de los pacientes con cáncer desarrolla heridas neoplásicas malignas (HNM), caracterizadas como friables, exudativas, fétidas, sangrantes y dolorosas. Algunos estudios reportan que todos los pacientes con HNM experimentan dolor, pero hay escasez de evidencia científica para fundamentar su tratamiento. Objetivo: Mapear y examinar la evidencia existente sobre terapias tópicas para manejar el dolor en pacientes adultos con HNM. Método: Se diseñó un protocolo de revisión de alcance, de acuerdo con la metodología del Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Serán consultadas las bases de datos CINAHL, LILACS, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane, NICE, Scopus, JBISRIR y la literatura gris, para la búsqueda de estudios publicados y no publicados en inglés, portugués y español. La selección estará a cargo de, al menos, dos revisores. La síntesis de los resultados será narrativa, con gráficos y tablas. Se incluirán estudios cualitativos, cuantitativos y revisiones, que describan el uso de terapias tópicas para el dolor en pacientes con HNM. Conclusión: Este estudio permitirá clasificar y discutir las terapias tópicas disponibles, y recomendar futuros estudios primarios.
