PURPOSE: Sonographically guided interventions in abdominal organs are routine procedures with rare severe complications. However, potential patient discomfort or pain is frequently not addressed in the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a prospective 1-year study, the peri- and postinterventional pain of patients undergoing sonographically guided punctures of the liver and pancreas was analyzed. Data acquisition was done with a standardized questionnaire. This included three numeric rating scales (NRS) ranging from "0" to "10" to be answered at puncture and 1 hour and 4 hours later. Data concerning complications and administered analgesic medication was acquired from the patients' charts. RESULTS: 223/274 patients could be analyzed (83 %). 91 women (40.8 %) and 132 men (59.2 %) were included. The mean age was 56.0 yrs. Overall the average level of pain was 2.98  at puncture, 1.21 after 1 hour and 0.71 after 4 hours. In patients with diagnostic biopsies, the pain levels were 3.37(0  h)/1.33(1  h)/0.71(4  h) for liver parenchyma, 2.64(0  h)/0.95(1  h)/0.65(4  h) for focal liver lesions and 3.1(0  h)/1.9(1  h)/1.1(4  h) for pancreatic punctures. The pain levels at therapeutic interventions were 3.00(0  h)/2.00(1  h)/0.50(4  h). Female and younger (< 50 yrs) patients had statistically significantly more pain at puncture and 1 hour postintervention. Only minor complications occurred (0.9 %). CONCLUSION: Severe pain after sonographically guided interventions is rare. Most patients suffer only from mild pain postinterventionally.
