“…Other than the qualitative study by Brown and McCormack (2006), which indicated elderly patients seemed overwhelmed by the technology, this is the fi rst study to evaluate PCA device use in the elderly. Similar to studies in adults and children ( Bainbridge et al, 2006 ;Chang & Cho, 2012 ;Chumbley et al, 2002 ;Dalury et al, 2012 ;Helfand & Freeman, 2009 ;Hudcova et al, 2006 ;Lewis et al, 2012 ;Meftah et al, 2012 ;Miaskowski, 2005 ;Wu et al, 2005 ), we found our elderly patients to be knowledgeable about the PCA device and how to use it, with the exception of medication frequency.…”

The evaluation of pain intensity by means of scales, and its recording, allow doctors and nurses to assess the pain management plan and introduce changes thereto in accordance with the key pain management objectives, namely: a reduction of pain and bothersome side effects and an improvement of functioning and quality of life [11]. Some authors emphasize that pain is a common complaint among patients so it is advisable to offer them a greater variety of evidencebased tools.…”

“…Svarsfrekvensen var därmed 50.7%, vilket kan ses som studiens begränsning och minskar resultatets generaliserbarhet. Eftersom användandet av de 18 påståendena i del 2 av frågeformuläret utvecklats från resultatet i en observationsstudie (22) testades validiteten genom att en faktoranalys genomfördes.
