Abstract:
A framework for defining pain terms such as acute, persistent, prolonged or chronic pain to newborns was derived from the scientific literature on neonatal pain assessments, previous attempts to define chronic pain and the clinical and neurophysiological features of neonatal pain. This novel framework incorporates the temporal features, localising characteristics, and secondary effects of the pain experienced, as well as the behavioural and physiological response patterns of newborns.
CONCLUSIONS: Although not evidence-based, this framework provides an initial starting point for defining commonly used neonatal pain terms. It will require future revision/refinement based on the accumulating evidence for non-acute pain.
摘要:
定义疼痛术语的框架,如急性,持久性,新生儿长期或慢性疼痛来自关于新生儿疼痛评估的科学文献,先前尝试定义慢性疼痛以及新生儿疼痛的临床和神经生理特征。这个新颖的框架融合了时间特征,本地化特征,以及所经历的疼痛的副作用,以及新生儿的行为和生理反应模式。
结论:虽然不是基于证据,该框架为定义常用的新生儿疼痛术语提供了初始起点.根据非急性疼痛的累积证据,它将需要未来的修订/改进。
