RESUMO

The use of grimace scales enables the clinical identification of changes in the facial expressions of animals caused by pain. The Horse Grimace Scale (HGS) is one such tool, comprising a pain coding system based on facial expressions and assessing six Facial Action Units (FAUs). Each FAU is accompanied by descriptions and anatomical details to assist the evaluator. However, the morphological descriptions for certain FAUs in the HGS are not sufficiently detailed, potentially hindering accurate interpretation. This study is an analytical investigation aimed at enhancing the morphoanatomical details in the HGS and providing raters with more comprehensive materials for pain evaluation in horses using this scale. To achieve this, detailed anatomical analyses were conducted using established references in veterinary anatomy. Initially, we propose substituting the term 'ear' with 'auricle' or 'pinna' and replacing 'area above the eye' with 'supraorbital region' for anatomical accuracy. Additionally, we introduce detailed morphoanatomical descriptions that identify specific landmarks, with the goal of ensuring more consistent application of the HGS and reducing interpretation variability. Furthermore, this study provides an explanation of the muscles involved in the investigated FAUs. These adjustments on the descriptions and evaluations remain unverified, however it is anticipated that the descriptive enhancements lead us to understand that higher interobserver reliability can be achieved for each of the FAUs.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the focus of pediatricians' gaze during the heel prick of neonates. Methods: Prospective study in which pediatricians wearing eye tracker glasses evaluated neonatal pain before/after a heel prtick. Pediatricians scored the pain they perceived in the neonate in a verbal analogue numerical scale (0=no pain; 10=maximum pain). The outcomes measured were number and time of visual fixations in upper face, lower face, and hands, in two 10-second periods, before (pre) and after the puncture (post). These outcomes were compared between the periods, and according to pediatricians' pain perception: absent/mild (score: 0-5) and moderate/intense (score: 6-10). Results: 24 pediatricians (31 years old, 92% female) evaluated 24 neonates. The median score attributed to neonatal pain during the heel prick was 7.0 (Interquartile range: 5-8). Compared to pre-, in the post-periods, more pediatricians fixed their gaze on the lower face (63 vs. 92%; p=0.036) and the number of visual fixations was greater on the lower face (2.0 vs. 5.0; p=0.018). There was no difference in the number and time of visual fixations according to the intensity of pain. Conclusions: At bedside, pediatricians change their focus of attention on the neonatal face after a painful procedure, focusing mainly on the lower part of the face.


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar o foco do olhar do pediatra durante a punção do calcanhar de neonatos. Métodos: Estudo prospectivo no qual pediatras, utilizando óculos de rastreamento visual, avaliaram a dor neonatal antes/depois de uma punção de calcanhar. Os pediatras pontuaram a dor de acordo com a sua percepção por meio de uma escala analógica verbal (0=sem dor; 10=dor máxima). Os desfechos analisados foram o número e o tempo das fixações visuais na face superior, face inferior e mãos, em dois períodos de 10 segundos, antes (PRÉ) e depois da punção (PÓS). Os resultados foram comparados entre os períodos e segundo a percepção da dor do pediatra: ausente/leve (escore: 0-5) e moderada/grave (escore: 6-10). Resultados: Vinte e quatro pediatras (31 anos, 92% sexo feminino) avaliaram 24 neonatos. A mediana do escore atribuído à dor do recém-nascido durante a punção do calcanhar foi 7,0 (intervalo interquartil: 5-8). Comparado ao período PRÉ, no período PÓS, o maior número de pediatras fixou o olhar na face inferior (63 vs. 92%; p=0,036) e o número de fixações visuais foi maior na face inferior (2,0 vs. 5,0; p=0,018). Não houve diferença no número e no tempo das fixações visuais de acordo com a intensidade da dor. Conclusões: À beira do leito, os pediatras mudam seu foco de atenção visual na face do recém-nascido após um procedimento doloroso, focando o olhar principalmente na parte inferior da face.

RESUMO

During pregnancy, the various changes women undergo can affect their health status. Manual therapies are important aids because they do not use medication. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of osteopathic manipulative treatment on the intensity of lumbar and pelvic pain and changes in quality of life. This prospective study included women over 18 years old and between 27 and 41 weeks pregnant, and excluded women with fetal malformations, multiple fetuses, premature rupture of membranes, and in labor. Forty-six pregnant women were selected and divided into two groups of ≤3 and ≥4 visits. Statistically significant improvements were observed in the intensity of maximum low back pain (7.54 ± 1.47 vs. 3.815 ± 1.73, p ≤ 0.01) and minimum low back pain (5.67 ± 2.03 vs. 3.111 ± 1.67, p ≤ 0.01), maximum pelvic pain (6.54 ± 2.22 vs. 2.77 ± 1.64, p = 0.01), and minimum pelvic pain (5.615 ± 2.21 vs. 2.615 ± 1.66, p = 0.01). Both groups achieved improvements in quality of life indices, with the improvements achieved by the ≥4-visits group being statistically significant. Osteopathic treatment was effective in reducing the intensity of lumbar and pelvic pain and in improving the quality of life of pregnant women in the third trimester.

RESUMO

We aimed to develop and validate the Unesp-Botucatu goat acute pain scale (UGAPS). Thirty goats (5 negative controls and 25 submitted to orchiectomy) were filmed for 7 min at the time points 24 h before and 2 h, 3 h (1 h after analgesia), and 24 h after orchiectomy. After content validation, according to an ethogram and literature, four blind observers analyzed the videos randomly to score the UGAPS, repeating the same assessment in 30 days. According to the confirmatory factor analysis, the UGAPS is unidimensional. Intra- and interobserver reliability was very good for all raters (Intraclass correlation coefficient ≥85%). Spearman's correlation between UGAPS versus VAS was 0.85 confirming the criterion validity. Internal consistency was 0.60 for Cronbach's α Cronbach and 0.67 for McDonald's ω. The item-total correlation was acceptable for 80% of the items (0.3-0.7). Specificity and sensitivity based on the cut-off point were 99% and 90%, respectively. The scale was responsive and demonstrated construct validity shown by the increase and decrease of scores after surgery pain and analgesia, respectively. The cut-off point for rescue analgesia is ≥3 of 10, with an area under the curve of 95.27%. The UGAPS presents content, criterion, and construct validities, responsiveness, and reliability to assess postoperative pain in castrated goats.

RESUMO

A dor é uma experiência subjetiva variando na sua forma e intensidade de pessoa para pessoa, que vem, ao longo dos anos, sendo um elemento subnotificado, não avaliado e subtratado na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI), principalmente, pelos pacientes estarem sedados. Dessa maneira, observa-se também a existência de várias escalas padronizadas, amplamente divulgadas e utilizadas para analisar prováveis sintomas de dor expressadas pela população sob efeito de sedativos e dependentes de ventilação mecânica em UTIs. O estudo foi desenvolvido junto a dois grupos de participantes: o primeiro grupo foi constituído pelos enfermeiros envolvidos na assistência direta ao paciente na unidade investigada, em todos os turnos de trabalho, com tempo de trabalho na unidade superior a três meses, que aceitarem participar da pesquisa e que se encontravam em atividade laboral no período de coleta de dados e o segundo grupo foi composto por pacientes internados que foram avaliados pelo instrumento proposto, durante o período de internação na UTI selecionada. Foram elegíveis os pacientes com idade superior a 18 anos, de ambos os sexos, que estavam sedados e inconscientes e sob ventilação mecânica, impossibilitados de verbalizar a percepção de dor, mediante consentimento de participação fornecido por responsável legal. A coleta de dados foi realizada no período de fevereiro a abril de 2023. Utilizou-se a Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) , um instrumento observacional de avaliação da dor, composto por três domínios comportamentais: expressão facial, movimentos de membros superiores e conformidade com o ventilador mecânico. A amostra pesquisada, composta em sua maioria de profissionais do sexo do feminino (85%), com predominância na faixa etária de 36 a 40 (30%) e mesmo percentual acima de 45 anos. A idade média dos enfermeiros foi de 42,5 anos, com mediana de 39,5 anos. Observa-se ainda que houve discrepâncias nas avaliações em relação aos valores obtidos pelos enfermeiros, quando comparados com o enfermeiro padrão ouro da pesquisa, em alguns momentos de observação dos pacientes, o que indica a necessidade de ampliar as oportunidades de avaliação com objetivo de capacitar os enfermeiros para uso mais sistemático deste instrumento. O instrumento BPS mostrou-se de boa compreensão e utilização pelos enfermeiros participantes deste estudo, o que indica sua utilização dentro de uma boa perspectiva pelos profissionais atuantes em unidades de terapia intensiva. Deve-se destacar a relevância desta pesquisa, em razão de poucos estudos na literatura brasileira, quanto a utilização desta ferramenta pelos enfermeiros intensivistas, na direção de um cuidado de excelência aos pacientes críticos


Pain is a subjective experience varying in its form and intensity from person to person, which has, over the years, been an underreported, unassisted and undertreated element in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), mainly because patients are sedated. Thus, it is also observed the existence of several standardized scales, widely disseminated and used to analyze probable pain symptoms expressed by the population under the effect of sedatives and dependent on mechanical ventilation in ICUs. This study aimed to describe the process of implantation of a validated instrument for pain assessment of sedated and unconscious patients under mechanical ventilation in an ICU. This is a cross-sectional and descriptive study, with a quantitative and qualitative approach. This investigation was carried out in the Intensive Care Center of a public hospital located in the municipality of Belém, Pará State, which meets the demand referred by the basic, outpatient and hospital network, allocating 100% of its installed capacity to SUS patients. The study was developed with two groups of participants: the first group consisted of nurses involved in direct patient care in the unit investigated, in all work shifts, with more than three months of work in the unit, who agreed to participate in the research and who were in work activity during the data collection period and the second group was composed of hospitalized patients who were evaluated by the proposed instrument, during the period of hospitalization in the selected ICU. Patients older than 18 years, of both sexes, who were sedated and unconscious and under mechanical ventilation, unable to verbalize the perception of pain, were eligible, with the consent of participation provided by a legal guardian. Data collection was conducted from February to April 2023. The Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) was used, an observational pain assessment instrument composed of three behavioral domains: facial expression, upper limb movements and compliance with the mechanical ventilator. The sample surveyed, composed mostly of female professionals (85%), with predominance in the age group of 36 to 40 (30%) and the same percentage over 45 years. The mean age of the nurses was 42.5 years, with a median of 39.5 years. It is also observed that there were discrepancies in the evaluations in relation to the values obtained by the nurses, when compared with the nurse gold standard of the research, in some moments of observation of the patients, which indicates the need to expand the opportunities for evaluation in order to train the nurses for more systematic use of this instrument. The BPS instrument was shown to be well understood and used by the nurses participating in this study, which indicates its use from a good perspective by professionals working in intensive care units. The relevance of this research should be highlighted, due to few studies in the Brazilian literature, regarding the use of this tool by intensive care nurses, in the direction of excellent care for critically ill patients

RESUMO

Background: Pain is the leading cause of animal suffering, hence the importance of validated tools to ensure its appropriate evaluation and treatment. We aimed to test the psychometric properties of the short form of the Unesp-Botucatu Feline Pain Scale (UFEPS-SF) in eight languages. Methods: The original scale was condensed from ten to four items. The content validation was performed by five specialists in veterinary anesthesia and analgesia. The English version of the scale was translated and back-translated into Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish by fluent English and native speaker translators. Videos of the perioperative period of 30 cats submitted to ovariohysterectomy (preoperative, after surgery, after rescue analgesia and 24 h after surgery) were randomly evaluated twice (one-month interval) by one evaluator for each language unaware of the pain condition. After watching each video, the evaluators scored the unidimensional, UFEPS-SF and Glasgow composite multidimensional feline pain scales. Statistical analyses were carried out using R software for intra and interobserver reliability, principal component analysis, criteria concurrent and predictive validities, construct validity, item-total correlation, internal consistency, specificity, sensitivity, the definition of the intervention score for rescue analgesia and diagnostic uncertainty zone, according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: UFEPS-SF intra- and inter-observer reliability were ≥0.92 and 0.84, respectively, for all observers. According to the principal component analysis, UFEPS-SF is a unidimensional scale. Concurrent criterion validity was confirmed by the high correlation between UFEPS-SF and all other scales (≥0.9). The total score and all items of UFEPS-SF increased after surgery (pain), decreased to baseline after analgesia and were intermediate at 24 h after surgery (moderate pain), confirming responsiveness and construct validity. Item total correlation of each item (0.68-0.83) confirmed that the items contributed homogeneously to the total score. Internal consistency was excellent (≥0.9) for all items. Both specificity (baseline) and sensitivity (after surgery) based on the Youden index was 99% (97-100%). The suggestive cut-off score for the administration of analgesia according to the ROC curve was ≥4 out of 12. The diagnostic uncertainty zone ranged from 3 to 4. The area under the curve of 0.99 indicated excellent discriminatory capacity of UFEPS-SF. Conclusions: The UFEPS-SF and its items, assessed by experienced evaluators, demonstrated very good repeatability and reproducibility, content, criterion and construct validities, item-total correlation, internal consistency, excellent sensitivity and specificity and a cut-off point indicating the need for rescue analgesia in Chinese, French, English, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify self-reported pain scores that best represent categories of no pain, mild, moderate, and severe pain in children, and a pain score that accurately represents a child's perceived need for medication, that is, a minimum pain score at which a child would want an analgesic. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective cross-sectional cohort study of children aged 6-17 years presenting to a pediatric emergency department with painful and nonpainful conditions. Pain was measured using the 10-point Verbal Numerical Rating Scale. Receiver operating characteristic -based methodology was used to determine pain scores that best differentiated no pain from mild pain, mild pain from moderate pain, and moderate pain from severe pain. Descriptive statistics were used to determine the perceived need for medication. RESULTS: We analyzed data from 548 children (51.3% female, 61.9% with a painful condition). The scores that best represent categories of pain intensity are as follows: 0-1 for no pain; 2-5 for mild pain; 6-7 for moderate pain; and 8-10 for severe pain. The area under the curve for the cut points differentiating each category ranged from 0.76 to 0.88. The median pain score representing the perceived need for medication was 6 (IQR, 4-7; range, 0-10). CONCLUSIONS: We identified population-level self-reported pain scores in children associated with categories of pain intensity that differ from scores conventionally used. Implementing our findings may provide a more accurate representation of the clinical meaning of pain scores and reduce selection bias in research. Our findings do not support the use of pain scores in isolation for clinical decision making or the use of a pain score threshold to represent a child's perceived need for medication.

RESUMO

La mirada histórica retrospectiva del dolor nos posiciona frente a su coexistencia con la humanidad. Cada cultura tuvo su peculiar manera de afrontarlo, darle significado y tomar sus medidas de alivio. La ciencia, desde su lugar, ha desarrollado conceptos explicando razones y orígenes de su presencia. Las ciencias médicas en su anhelo de aliviar las dolencias de las personas, elaboraron escalas de evaluación del dolor. En las terapias intensivas, donde el estado de conciencia del paciente varía acorde a la necesidad que se produce a fin de resolver su patología o el motivo de ingreso a este servicio, resulta necesario valorar su estado neurológico para poder así determinar con precisión la escala de evaluación del dolor que aporte el resultado más oportuna según el momento preciso. Debido a los cuidados que lleva a cabo el profesional de enfermería con los internados, es quien permanece mayor tiempo con ellos; pudiendo cultivar una relación interpersonal más profunda, y debido a lo cual, no sólo colaborar en el alivio del dolor, sino también, si fuera necesario, ayudar a que encuentre el sentido a éste, en palabras de Travelbee. Para poder implementar dicha idea, el objetivo del presente protocolo, se define el siguiente objetivo: «Tomar acuerdo e implementar el uso adecuado y continuo de las escalas del dolor, en el paciente de terapia intensiva de adultos, de acuerdo a su grado de conciencia, a fin de reducir el dolor durante su estadía de internación[AU]


The retrospective historical view of pain positions us in front of its coexistence with humanity. Each culture had its own way of dealing with it, giving it meaning, and taking its relief measures. Science, from its place, has developed concepts explaining reasons and origins of its presence. The medical sciences in their desire to alleviate people's ailments, developed pain assessment scales. In intensive therapies, where the patient's state of consciousness varies according to the need that occurs in order to resolve their pathology or the reason for admission to this service, it is necessary to assess their neurological status in order to accurately determine the scale of pain assessment that provides the most timely result according to the precise moment. Due to the care carried out by the nursing professional with the internees, it is he who stays with them the longest; being able to cultivate a deeper interpersonal relationship, and due to which, not only collaborate in the relief of pain, but also, if necessary, help it find meaning to it, in the words of Travelbee. In order to implement this idea, the objective of this protocol, the following objective is defined: "Agree and implement the adequate and continuous use of pain scales, in the adult intensive care patient[AU]

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The UNESP-Botucatu multidimensional feline pain assessment scale (UFEPS) is a valid and reliable instrument for acute pain assessment in cats. However, its limitations are that responsiveness was not tested using a negative control group, it was validated only for ovariohysterectomy, and it can be time-consuming. We aimed to evaluate the construct and criterion validity, reliability, sensitivity, and specificity of the UFEPS and its novel short form (SF) in various clinical or painful surgical conditions. METHODS: Ten client-owned healthy controls (CG) and 40 client-owned cats requiring pain management for clinical or surgical care (20 clinical and 20 surgery group (12 orthopedic and eight soft tissue surgeries) were recruited. Three evaluators assessed pain, in real-time, in clinical cases before and 20 min after rescue analgesia and in surgical cases before and up to 6.5 hours postoperatively, by using the visual analog, numerical ratio, and a simple descriptive scale, in this order, followed by the UFEPS-SF, UFEPS and Glasgow multidimensional feline pain (Glasgow CMPS-Feline) in random order. For the surgical group, rescue analgesia (methadone 0.2 mg/kg IM or IV and/or dipyrone 12.5 mg/kg IV) was performed when the UFEPS-SF score was ≥4 or exceptionally according to clinical judgement. If a third interventional analgesia was required, methadone (0.1-0.2 mg/kg IM) and ketamine (1 mg/kg IM) were administered. For the clinical group, all cats received rescue analgesia (methadone 0.1-0.2 mg/kg IM or IV or nalbuphine 0.5 mg/kg IM or IV), according to the clinician in charge, regardless of pain scores. Construct (1-comparison of scores in cats undergoing pain vs pain-free control cats by unpaired Wilcoxon-test and 2-responsiveness to analgesia by paired Wilcoxon test) and concurrent criterion validity (Spearman correlation of the total score among scales), inter-rater reliability, specificity and sensitivity were calculated for each scale (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Reliability ranged between moderate and good for the UFEPS and UFEPS-SF (confidence intervals of intraclass coefficients = 0.73-0.86 and 0.63-0.82 respectively). The Spearman correlation between UFEPS and UFEPS-SF was 0.85, and their correlation with Glasgow CMPS-Feline was strong (0.79 and 0.78 respectively), confirming criterion validity. All scales showed construct validity or responsiveness (higher scores of cats with clinical and postoperative pain vs healthy controls, and the reduction in scores after rescue analgesia). The sensitivity and specificity of the UFEPS, UFEPS-SF and Glasgow CMPS-Feline were moderate (sensitivity 83.25, 78.60% and 74.28%; specificity 72.00, 84.67 and 70.00%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Both UFEPS and UFEPS-SF showed appropriate concurrent validity, responsiveness, reliability, sensitivity, and specificity for feline acute pain assessment in cats with various clinical and orthopedic and soft tissue surgical conditions.

RESUMO

ANTECEDENTES: Los pacientes geriátricos presentan dificultad progresiva para expresar el dolor. Es muy importante establecer un parámetro preciso para manejar el dolor posoperatorio. OBJETIVO: Determinar la validez de la escala facial del dolor (EFD) en pacientes geriátricos posquirúrgicos. MÉTODO: Estudio comparativo, observacional, prolectivo, en un hospital de segundo nivel de atención. Fase 1: se presentaron las caras de la escala desordenadas a personas ≥ 60 años, con Glasgow íntegro, previa firma de consentimiento, para ordenarlas ascendentemente. Fase 2: se incluyeron pacientes ≥ 60 años, de cualquier sexo, sometidos a cualquier procedimiento quirúrgico, con Glasgow íntegro, previa firma de consentimiento informado. Se eliminaron los que no cooperaron o no completaron ambas escalas. A cada paciente se aplicó, antes de recibir analgesia, la escala visual numérica (EVN), y 5 minutos después la EFD, y nuevamente 30 minutos tras la analgesia. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva, tamaño del efecto, t pareada y Spearman. RESULTADOS: Fase 1: todas las caras fueron ubicadas correctamente (75-100%). Fase 2: participaron 142 pacientes, 76 (53.5%) hombres y 66 (46.5%) mujeres. Promedios preanalgesia: EFD 3.4, EVN 7.9; posanalgesia: EFD 1.8, EVN 4.8. Tamaño del efecto (EFD): 2.389; t pareada 17.231 (p < 0.002); Spearman 0.654 (p = 0.016) preanalgesia, 0.798 (p = 0.004) posanalgesia. CONCLUSIÓN: La EFD es válida para evaluar la intensidad del dolor posoperatorio en pacientes geriátricos. BACKGROUND: Geriatric patients present progressive difficult to assess pain. Getting a precise parameter to approach postsurgical pain is a very important issue. OBJECTIVE: To explore Faces Pain Scale (EFD) validity in geriatric post-surgical patients. METHOD: Comparative, observational, prolective study in patients from a second level attention unit. Phase 1: faces were disorderly presented to ≥ 60 years old persons, Glasgow scale scored 15, signed authorization, to place them in ascending order. Phase 2: ≥ 60 years old patients, any sex, who received any surgical procedure, Glasgow scale scored 15, signed authorization were recruited. Those who did not cooperate/complete scales application were eliminated. Numeral Visual Scale (EVN) and 5 minutes after EFD were applied to each patient, before analgesia, and again 30 minutes after analgesia. Descriptive statistical data, effect-size, Student paired-t and Spearman tests were used. RESULTS: Phase 1: every face was correctly placed (75-100%). Phase 2: 142 patients participated, 76 (53.5%) male, 66 (46.5%) female. Pre-analgesia media scores: EFDA 3.4, EVN 7.9; post-analgesia media scores: EFD 1.8, EVN 4.8. EFD effect-size test scored 2.389, paired-t scored 17.231 (p < 0.002); Spearman scores: 0.654 (p = 0.016) pre-analgesia, 0.798 (p = 0.004) post-analgesia. CONCLUSION: EFD is a valid scale to evaluate postoperative pain intensity in geriatric patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: EVENDOL scale (from the French Evaluation Enfant Douleur) is used to evaluate pain in children in any situation covering a wider age group than other pain scales (birth up to seven years). This study aimed to evaluate pain in hospitalized newborns, to adapt and validate the EVENDOL to Brazilian Portuguese. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional, cross-cultural adaptation and validation study in a convenience sample from a tertiary hospital, Brazil. EVENDOL was translated and tested for reliability and validity using the PIPP and NFCS scales for comparison. For reliability testing, two observers independently evaluated 117 nociceptive procedures from 87 newborns. Internal consistency coefficient Cronbach's alpha, internal class agreement coefficient, and Kappa factor were appropriately measured. RESULTS: The scale's internal consistency reached a value of 0.82, and the estimates of internal consistency and reliability also reached acceptable or very good values. Two-way ANOVA determined statistically significant effect of gestational age on the total score of the EVENDOL (F = 4.14; p = 0.045), younger infants had the lowest values, as lower values of Apgar-5° minute lowered the indicator "Interaction with the Environment" (F = 5.066; p = 0.027). CONCLUSIONS: EVENDOL proved to be an easily applied tool and it was psychometrically robust, reliable and valid for use with both premature and term hospitalized newborns, who were clinically stable, being Apgar score and gestational age relevant factors. It is a reliable method of identifying pain in babies who need more support from the hospital staff and now is available for use in Portuguese language. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT: The EVENDOL pain scale is now validated for babies born at term and prematurely in Portuguese Language allowing its use in all Lusophone countries.

RESUMO

Abstract Background Currently, different pain scales are used extensively to measure clinical pain, especially in dental practice. Objective This study aims to compare pain scales used in clinical research and dental practice, identifying the easiest to understand by patients with Cervical Dentin Hypersensitivity. Method Seventy-four patients with Cervical Dentin Hypersensitivity were stimulated by a thermic test of the sensitive tooth, followed by application of different pain measurement scales (Visual Analogue Scale, Faces Pain Scales, Numeric Rating Scale, and Verbal Rating Scale) and by a questionnaire to evaluate the patient's perception regarding the ease of understanding scales. The statistic tests used were the Wilcoxon, Spearman correlation, and Chi-Square tests. Results The results founded a strong positive correlation between the scales (r = 0.798 to 0.960 p <0.001). The was easiest scale to understand according to the patients was the Verbal Rating Scale (52.7%). Conclusion The pain measurement scales evaluated provide similar information about pain reported in the Cervical Dentin Hypersensitivity allowing the comparison between studies that used them to measure pain. The affinity of the patient with the pain scale can guide the clinical dental practice in the different levels of health care.


Resumo Introdução Atualmente, diferentes escalas têm sido utilizadas para medir a dor no contexto clínico, especialmente na prática odontológica. Objetivo O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar as escalas de dor comumente utilizadas em pesquisas clínicas e na prática clínica odontológica, identificando as mais fáceis de serem compreendidas pelos pacientes com hipersensibilidade dentinária cervical. Método Setenta e quatro pacientes com hipersensibilidade dentinária cervical foram estimulados por um teste térmico para avaliação do dente sensível, seguido pela aplicação de diferentes escalas para avaliação de dor (Escala Visual Analógica, Faces de Dor, Escala Numérica e Escala Verbal) e de um questionário complementar para avaliar a percepção do paciente em relação à facilidade de compreensão das escalas. Os resultados foram submetidos aos testes de correlação de Wilcoxon, Spearman e Qui-Quadrado. Resultados Uma forte correlação positiva foi encontrada entre as quatro escalas avaliadas (r = 0,798 a 0,960; p < 0,001). De acordo com os pacientes, a escala de mais fácil compreensão foi a Escala Verbal (52,7%). Conclusão As escalas para mensuração da dor fornecem informações semelhantes sobre a dor relatada na hipersensibilidade dentinária cervical. A afinidade do paciente pela escala de dor pode direcionar a escolha da escala a ser utilizada na prática clínica odontológica nos diversos níveis de atenção à saúde.

RESUMO

Resumen: OBJETIVO: Determinar la efectividad de la indometacina, por vía rectal, en el tratamiento del dolor posthisterectomía versus paracetamol o metamizol administrados por vía intravenosa. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio experimental, comparativo y prospectivo llevado a cabo en el Hospital Central del Estado de Chihuahua entre noviembre y diciembre de 2019. Criterios de inclusión: pacientes histerectomizadas, con expediente clínico completo y de cualquier edad. Criterios de exclusión: pacientes con alteraciones en el umbral del dolor, inconsistencias en el expediente, histerectomía total no ginecológica. Criterios de eliminación: pacientes con limitantes en la información que no permitieron relacionar la variable dependiente con la independiente. El seguimiento del dolor referido se efectuó con la escala análoga del dolor y valoraciones a las 12 y 24 horas posteriores a la cirugía. RESULTADOS: Se reunieron 141 pacientes, que se dividieron en tres grupos. Grupo 1: metamizol intravenoso e indometacina por vía rectal (n = 24). Grupo 2: paracetamol intravenoso e indometacina por vía rectal (n = 19). Grupo 3: paracetamol y metamizol intravenosos (n = 98). La mayoría de las pacientes de los grupos 1 y 2 reportaron, a las 24 h, una escala visual análoga menor de 3 vs las del grupo 3. Diez de 98 pacientes requirieron tratamiento en el servicio de Anestesiología. CONCLUSIÓN: La administración de indometacina por vía rectal a pacientes histerectomizadas demostró menor dolor que con metamizol y paracetamol, y evolución clínica y alta hospitalaria más temprana.


Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To determine the effectiveness of indomethacin in the treatment of post-hysterectomy pain versus paracetamol or metamizole administered intravenously. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Experimental, comparative and prospective study at the Central Hospital of the State of Chihuahua, period November to December 2019, patients undergoing hysterectomy with complete clinical record, any age. Patients with alterations in the pain threshold, inconsistencies in the file, total non-gynecological hysterectomy were excluded, patients with information limitations were eliminated, which did not allow to relate the dependent variable, with the independent one. RESULTS: 141 patients were collected, which were divided into three groups. Group 1: intravenous metamizole and indomethacin rectally (n = 24). Group 2: intravenous paracetamol and indomethacin rectally (n = 19). Group 3: intravenous paracetamol and metamizole (n = 98). Most of the patients in groups 1 and 2 reported, at 24 hours, a visual analog scale of less than 3 vs those of group 3. Ten of 98 patients required treatment in the Anesthesiology service. CONCLUSION: The administration of indomethacin rectally in postoperative patients of hysterectomy has been shown to reduce pain more effectively than conventional analgesics such as metamizole and paracetamol, relating to clinical evolution and early hospital discharge.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo: Descrever a adequação de duas escalas comportamentais, a Behavioral Pain Scale e a Critical Care Pain Observation Tool, para a avaliação da dor em pacientes intubados orotraquealmente, internados em unidades de terapia intensiva. Método: Utilizando a metodologia recomendada pelo Centro Cochrane, foi realizada revisão sistemática da literatura, na base de dados eletrônica EBSCO host (CINAHL Complete, MEDLINE®Complete, Nursing & Allied Health Collection: Comprehensive, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts, MedicLatina). Foram realizadas duas pesquisas com os seguintes termos em inglês no campo de pesquisa: "behavioral pain scale" AND "critical care pain observation tool" AND "behavioral pain scale" OR "critical care pain observation tool". Dois revisores independentes realizaram a avaliação crítica, a extração e a síntese dos dados. Resultados: Foram incluídos 15 estudos que evidenciaram que a Behavioral Pain Scale e a Critical Care Pain Observation Tool eram duas escalas válidas e confiáveis para a avaliação da dor em pacientes intubados orotraquealmente e internados em unidade de terapia intensiva. As escalas apresentaram propriedades psicométricas semelhantes, bem como boa confiabilidade. Conclusão: Ambas as escalas são adequadas para a avaliação da dor em pacientes intubados orotraquealmente, internados em unidade de terapia intensiva, contudo, apresentam limitações em populações específicas como doentes vítimas de trauma, queimados e do foro neurocirurgico. É sugerida a realização de mais estudos sobre o tema e em populações específicas.

RESUMO

La naturaleza urgente del dolor se relaciona más con el miedo que genera que con la verdadera intensidad de la molestia. El miedo al dolor dental obliga a muchos pacientes a reducir sus visitas al odontólogo hasta que experimentan una odontalgia insoportable, lo que pone en riesgo su salud general y dental. Un cuestionario constituye un medio efectivo para determinar la capacidad física y emocional de un paciente para tolerar un procedimiento odontológico. Cuando conoce el origen del miedo, el odontólogo dispone de técnicas para el manejo del paciente. Los objetivos son: medir el miedo al dolor dental; conocer las diferencias en el grado de miedo al dolor; identificar las situaciones cotidianas de la consulta dental que provocan un alto grado de miedo al dolor dental. Para cumplir los objetivos se propone el uso del Cuestionario del Miedo al Dolor Dental (CMDD), que se aplicó a 200 pacientes de la clínica de Endodoncia de la UMSNH. Material y métodos: 250 cuestionarios, bolígrafo. Se entregó el cuestionario de autoevaluación y se procedió al análisis y clasificación de la información con el software SPSS versión 18. Conclusiones: Se comprueba la fiabilidad del CMDD, es decir, que mide de manera confiable el miedo al dolor dental de los pacientes a los que se les aplica. Los resultados proveen información importante para identificar áreas para la mejora de la práctica odontológica relativas al manejo del miedo al dolor dental (AU)


The urgent nature of pain is more related to the fear generated than the true intensity of the discomfort. The fear of dental pain forces many patients to reduce their visits to the dentist until they experience an excruciating toothache. The assessment in dentistry determines the physical and emotional capacity of a patient to tolerate a dental procedure. A form with a questionnaire is an effective means of ensuring relevant information. When you know the origin of the fear of his patient, the dentist has many useful techniques for treatment. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to measure the fear of dental pain (I), know the differences that may exist in the degree of fear of pain between one individual and another (II) and everyday situations of dental consultation result in a high degree of fear of pain (III); using the Questionnaire of Fear for Dental Pain (QFDP) used in 200 patients of the Endodontics Clinic at UMSNH. Material and methods: 250 questionnaires. Selfassessment Questionnaire is delivered. We proceed to the analysis and classification of the information with the computer software SPSS version 18. Conclusions: The reliability of the CMDD is verified, that is, it reliably measures the fear of dental pain of the patients to whom it is applied. The results provide important information to identify areas for the improvement of dental practice related to the management of fear of dental pain (AU)

RESUMO

Resumen Introducción El esguince de tobillo es una patología frecuente y uno de los principales motivos de incapacidad laboral, a pesar de ello, no se cuenta con un tratamiento estandarizado y existe controversia con respecto a la inmovilización o una movilización temprana. Objetivo Determinar el mejor tratamiento para los esguinces de tobillo grado II, ofreciendo un resultado satisfactorio con periodos de incapacidad más cortos. Material y métodos Ensayo clínico-aleatorizado, ciego simple de enero a junio de 2016. Dos grupos: inmovilización y vendaje funcional. Se interrogó dolor inicial y al término del tratamiento con escala de EVA, ambos grupos con mismo manejo analgésico, antiinflamatorio y rehabilitación, se evaluó funcionalidad al mes del inicio del padecimiento con escala de Karlsson. Resultados Todos los pacientes con dolor inicial arriba de 70 (de moderado a severo), sin diferencia en media entre grupos (férula 86.3 ± 9.6 contra vendaje de 86.1 ± 8.5; p = 0.95), ambos con disminución del dolor; el grupo con vendaje obtuvo niveles más bajos (férula media 55.2 ± 15.5 contra vendaje 40.3 ± 12.8, p ≤ 0.001). Grupo con férula 24 (88.9%) al final calificaron su dolor como moderado y tres (11.1%) como leve contra el grupo con vendaje, de los cuales, 17 (73.1%) tuvieron dolor moderado y siete (26.9%) leve (p = 0.15). Conclusión El vendaje funcional es una excelente opción de manejo para esguince de tobillo grado II, ofrece buenos resultados con periodos de incapacidad y costos más reducidos.


Abstract Background The grade II ankle sprain it is one of the most frequent pathologies in the musculoskeletal system and one of the principal motives of laboral inability. Despite the fact this pathology is one of the most common reasons for ER visiting there is not a standard treatment for it, and exist controversy about the immobilization vs. an early mobilization. Objective Determine the best treatment for grade II ankle sprains, offering a satisfactory result with a minor time of labor inability. Material and methods Single-blind randomized controlled clinical trial with two groups immobilization versus functional bandage, both groups with VAS evaluation at the beginning and at the end of treatment, same AINES management and rehabilitation, 30 days after the injury we evaluate the functional outcome with Karlsson score. Results At the beginning all patients report pain over 70 (moderate-severe) without difference in the average of both groups (immobilization 86.3 ± 9.6 versus functional bandage treatment of 86.1 ± 8.5; p = 0.95). Both groups present less pain at the end of the treatment, the bandage group present lower values, (Immobilization average 55.2 ± 15.5 versus functional bandage treatment 40.3 ± 12.8, p ≤ 0.001). In the immobilization group 24 (88.9%) at the end of the treatment had moderate pain and 3 (11.1%) light pain against the functional treatment group where 17 (73.1%) had moderate pain and 7 (26.9%) light (p = 0.15). Conclusion Functional bandage is an excellent treatment option for grade II ankle sprain, offering good results with a lower time of inability and cost.

RESUMO

Abstract Background and objectives: The Behavioral Pain Scale is a pain assessment tool for uncommunicative and sedated Intensive Care Unit patients. The lack of a Brazilian scale for pain assessment in adults mechanically ventilated justifies the relevance of this study that aimed to validate the Brazilian version of Behavioral Pain Scale as well as to correlate its scores with the records of physiological parameters, sedation level and severity of disease. Methods: Twenty-five Intensive Care Unit adult patients were included in this study. The Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale version (previously translated and culturally adapted) and the recording of physiological parameters were performed by two investigators simultaneously during rest, during eye cleaning (non-painful stimulus) and during endotracheal suctioning (painful stimulus). Results: High values of responsiveness coefficient (coefficient = 3.22) were observed. The Cronbach's alpha of total Behavioral Pain Scale score at eye cleaning and endotracheal suctioning was 0.8. The intraclass correlation coefficient of total Behavioral Pain Scale score was ≥ 0.8 at eye cleaning and endotracheal suctioning. There was a significant highest Behavioral Pain Scale score during application of painful procedure when compared with rest period (p ≤ 0.0001). However, no correlations were observed between pain and hemodynamic parameters, sedation level, and severity of disease. Conclusions: This pioneer validation study of Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale exhibits satisfactory index of internal consistency, interrater reliability, responsiveness and validity. Therefore, the Brazilian Behavioral Pain Scale version was considered a valid instrument for being used in adult sedated and mechanically ventilated patients in Brazil.


Resumo Justificativa e objetivos: A Escala Comportamental de Dor (Behavioral Pain Scale) é uma ferramenta de avaliação da dor para pacientes não-comunicativos e sedados em unidade de tratamento intensivo (UTI). A falta de uma escala brasileira para a avaliação da dor em adultos sob ventilação mecânica justifica a relevância deste estudo que teve por objetivo validar a versão brasileira da Escala Comportamental de Dor (ECD), bem como correlacionar seus escores com os registros de parâmetros fisiológicos, nível de sedação e gravidade da doença. Métodos: Vinte e cinco pacientes adultos internados em UTI foram incluídos neste estudo. A versão brasileira da ECD (previamente traduzida e adaptada culturalmente) e os registros dos parâmetros fisiológicos foram realizados simultaneamente por dois avaliadores durante o repouso, durante a limpeza dos olhos (estímulo não doloroso) e durante a aspiração endotraqueal (estímulo doloroso). Resultados: Valores elevados do coeficiente de coeficiente de responsividade (coeficiente = 3,22) foram observados. O coeficiente alfa de Cronbach do escore total da ECD durante a limpeza dos olhos e aspiração endotraqueal foi de 0,8. O coeficiente de correlação intraclasse do escore total da ECD foi ≥ 0,8 durante a limpeza dos olhos e aspiração endotraqueal. Houve um escore significativamente mais alto na ECD durante a aplicação do estímulo doloroso em comparação com o período de descanso (p ≤ 0,0001). No entanto, não foram observadas correlações entre dor e parâmetros hemodinâmicos, nível de sedação e gravidade da doença. Conclusões: Este estudo pioneiro de validação da ECD brasileira apresenta índices satisfatórios de consistência interna, confiabilidade entre avaliadores, responsividade e validade. Portanto, a versão da ECD brasileira foi considerada um instrumento válido para ser usado em pacientes adultos sedados e ventilados mecanicamente no Brasil.

RESUMO

Although pain is considered the 4th vital sign and one of the most frequently observed clinical signs in domestic animals' clinical practice, its treatment is still inadequate despite significant improvement in the last few years. Acute post-operative pain has aroused great interest due to its potential risk of developing into chronic pain, and if not treated properly, it might worsen the recovery and the patient's quality of life. Cats are one of the least studied species of domestic animals regarding pain recognition and control. Some of the difficulties lie in pain assessment and perception. The consensus published in February 2016 about behavioral signs of pain in cats considered some signs to be reliable and sensitive for the assessment of pain in this species in many different clinical conditions, however it still states that more studies will be necessary in order to evaluate its clinical validity and applicability, especially considering the various pain intensities. As an attempt to quantify pain intensity in cats, several types of traditional subjective scales and others that facilitate pain assessment by combining the observation of spontaneous behavioral signals of pain and qualitative response to palpation of surgical wound are used as tools. It is necessary to use specific scales for each type of pain and for each specific animal species so to minimize the subjectivity and the partiality of the observers, reducing bias and improving efficacy, thus leading to a better patient care.(AU)


Embora a dor seja considerada o quarto sinal vital e uma das manifestações mais comumente encontradas na prática médica veterinária dos animais domésticos, seu tratamento ainda é inadequado. A dor aguda pós-operatória tem suscitado grande interesse por seu potencial risco de cronificação caso não adequadamente tratada, podendo piorar a recuperação e a qualidade de vida do paciente. O gato é uma das espécies domésticas menos estudadas no que diz respeito ao reconhecimento e controle da dor, e algumas das dificuldades residem na avaliação e na percepção da dor. O consenso sobre os sinais comportamentais da dor nesta espécie publicado em fevereiro de 2016 considerou alguns sinais como confiáveis e sensíveis para a avaliação da dor em gatos, em toda uma gama de diferentes condições clínicas, porém afirma a necessidade da realização de estudos que analisem a sua validade e aplicabilidade clínica, especialmente em relação a diferentes intensidades de dor. Na tentativa de se quantificar a dor são utilizados vários tipos de escalas subjetivas tradicionais e outras que facilitam a avaliação da efetividade da analgesia, a partir da observação de sinais comportamentais espontâneos indicativos de dor, combinada a uma resposta qualitativa à palpação da ferida cirúrgica. Faz-se necessária a utilização de escalas específicas para o tipo de dor (aguda ou crônica) e para a espécie, de modo a minimizar a subjetividade e a parcialidade dos observadores e possibilitando uma melhor assistência ao paciente.(AU)
