| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain, acute | 12 week | Wong Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale: This scale was developed by Donna Wong and Connie Morain Baker in 1981 and later revised in 1983. The scale is suitable for describing the pain status of children aged 3-18 years. Children can express many pain areas and their severity with this scale. There are 6 facial expressions in the scale. The scores of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 were indicated for each facial expression, respectively. Facial expressions are given points with the lowest 0 and the highest 10. A score of 0 was defined as no pain, while a score of 10 was defined as unbearable pain. |
| Anxiety, spitefulness | 12 week | Venham Anxiety Rating Picture Scale: The scale was developed by Larry L. Venham and Elise Gaulin Kremer in 1979. The scale is used to determine the anxiety status of children over 3 years old. There are 8 cards in the scale and two pictures on each card. Cards 1 to 8 are shown to the child in turn. Of the pictures, the anxious picture is given 1 point, while the non-anxious picture is given 0 points. The lowest is 0 points, while the highest is 8 points.
