Persons with aphasia have difficulties communicating pain symptoms.
Thirteen observers performed multiple observations using the Pain Assessment in Impaired Cognition (PAIC15) scale for persons with aphasia during rest and transfer in persons with aphasia. This pilot study examined the user-friendliness of PAIC15 and preference for type of self-report pain scales with a questionnaire.
The PAIC15 was considered user-friendly for persons with aphasia: items were clear and not difficult to score. When self-report is possible, the combined scale with verbal, visual, and numerical elements is preferred for persons with aphasia.
PAIC15 is a helpful instrument to aid clinical judgment and to screen for the presence of pain in persons with aphasia. There were mixed opinions, but most observers preferred to use the combined self-report scale for persons with aphasia.
失语症患者在表达疼痛症状方面存在困难。
13名观察者使用认知障碍疼痛评估（PAIC15）量表，对失语症患者在休息和转移过程中进行了多次观察。这项初步研究通过问卷调查，考察了PAIC15的用户友好性以及失语症患者对自我报告疼痛量表类型的偏好。
PAIC15被认为对失语症患者来说用户友好：条目清晰，评分不难。当可以进行自我报告时，失语症患者更喜欢包含语言、视觉和数字元素的综合量表。
PAIC15是一种有助于临床判断和筛查失语症患者疼痛情况的工具。存在不同意见，但大多数观察者更喜欢对失语症患者使用综合自我报告量表。
