Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluation of pain in children during IV line with Angiocate. Timepoint: Sampling will take place within 3 months. Method of measurement: In order to determine the severity of pain, a numerical scale of pain (NAS) and a behavioral pain scale (FLACC) will be used.The range of Numerical Scale (NAS) is from 0 to 10, where zero indicates no pain and a score of 5 indicates moderate pain and 10 indicates the highest pain rate. After explaining about the scoring and 5 minutes after the abdomen, the child is asked to measure his pain according to the numerical scale of the pain.Another tool is the use of the Behavioral Scale of Pain (FLACC), which includes five criteria for child behavior such as facial expression, foot movements, activity level, crying and relief, which is well known by nurses who are fully aware of the pain instrument. The behavior of the child is scored during the injection of this questionnaire.So the zero score for the least pain and the two score for the most pain in each criterion is considered. The score of each section is inserted separately and then the 5 sections are combined together to calculate the total pain behavior. The zero score range is the lowest and the 10 most range of these scores.
