The issue of pain assessment has attracted great interest in recent years, but there are as yet precious few studies which concentrate on paediatric nurses' assessment skills. Sue Price describes a study of how first-level (general) student nurses assessed children's pain. Despite a small sample size, she found wide variation in understanding of the intensity of pain being suffered by children. She recommends the inclusion of a session on the assessment and management of pain in the paediatric module of general nursing syllabuses.
近年来,疼痛评估问题引起了极大关注,但专注于儿科护士评估技能的研究却极为稀少。苏·普赖斯描述了一项关于一级(普通)护生如何评估儿童疼痛的研究。尽管样本量较小,但她发现护生对儿童所遭受疼痛强度的理解存在很大差异。她建议在普通护理教学大纲的儿科模块中增设一节关于疼痛评估与管理的课程。
