Needle-Related or Minor Procedural Pain in Pediatric Patients Clinical Practice Guideline

Pdf Summary

The guideline addresses pain and distress in pediatric patients during needle-related or minor invasive procedures. It highlights the need for improved pain assessment and management and provides recommendations based on the evidence. The studies reviewed various interventions, such as distraction techniques and sucrose administration, which were found to be effective in reducing pain and distress. Other interventions, like vibration and cold application, were effective for reducing pain during venipuncture. Clown therapy and needle-free injection devices were also found to be effective in specific situations. However, more research is needed on these interventions. The systematic review included 40 publications that met the criteria and provided valuable insights into pain management in pediatric patients.
