Chronic pain in children and adolescents is increasing in prevalence, affects the quality of life, predisposes to pain in adulthood and causes numerous contacts to the healthcare system. In contrast, the number of therapeutic offers tailored to the special needs of this age group is insufficient and confusing. The working group on pain in children and adolescents of the German Pain Society therefore documented appropriate facilities in a questionnaire survey carried out using a snowball system. The response rate of 27/109 questionnaires was low. Thus, the results may not be entirely representative. Nevertheless, the heterogeneity of the offers and in total an undersupply became very clear. In order to improve the care situation, joint efforts by the various pediatric subdisciplines dealing with pain, an increase in the number of child pain treatment centers and a better networking are necessary.
儿童和青少年慢性疼痛的患病率正在上升，影响生活质量，易导致成年后患疼痛，并导致多次就医。相比之下，针对该年龄组特殊需求的治疗方案数量不足且令人困惑。因此，德国疼痛协会儿童和青少年疼痛工作组通过一项采用滚雪球系统进行的问卷调查记录了相关的合适机构。109份问卷中27份的回复率较低。因此，结果可能并不完全具有代表性。尽管如此，治疗方案的异质性以及总体供应不足的情况变得非常明显。为了改善护理状况，处理疼痛问题的各个儿科亚专业需要共同努力，增加儿童疼痛治疗中心的数量，并加强更好的网络联系。
