An accurate and comprehensive pain assessment is crucial for adequate pain management in pre- and early verbal children during painful medical procedures. This study used an inductive approach to explore the processes involved in parental pain assessment and to develop a new model of Parental Assessment of Acute Child Pain. Participants were 19 parents of children aged under 3 years who had previously or were potentially about to experience an intravenous cannula or nasogastric tube insertion. Parental affect regulation, while witnessing their child in acute pain/distress, appeared to be critical to the processes involved in assessing their child's pain.
准确而全面的疼痛评估对于在痛苦的医疗程序中对学龄前和早期会说话儿童进行充分的疼痛管理至关重要。本研究采用归纳法来探索父母疼痛评估所涉及的过程，并开发一种新的儿童急性疼痛父母评估模型。参与者为19名3岁以下儿童的父母，这些儿童之前或可能即将经历静脉置管或鼻胃管插入操作。在目睹孩子处于急性疼痛/痛苦状态时，父母的情绪调节似乎对评估孩子疼痛所涉及的过程至关重要。
