Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Pain assessment is a complex yet essential aspect of holistic care of the pediatric patient during the postoperative period. Because children cannot verbalize pain, the PACU nurse is faced with the challenge of assessing pain. This article attempts to provide guidelines in assessing postoperative pediatric pain and reviews common analgesic drugs. |
