Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| VAS | up to twelve weeks | a simple, 10-cm line used to measure pain intensity in children, with word anchors at each end like no pain and worst possible pain. Children are asked to mark the point on the line that represents their pain level, and the distance from the no pain anchor is used to calculate the score. While VAS is generally considered reliable for children 5 years and older, some studies suggest younger children may struggle with the conceptual complexity. |
| FLACC scale | up to twelve weeks | a behavioral pain assessment tool used for children, especially those who cannot verbally express their pain. It stands for Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability. The FLACC scale is used to assess pain in infants and children from birth and older, including those with developmental delays. It's a way to understand pain by observing facial expressions and behavioral patterns. Each of the five categories is scored on a 0-2 scale, resulting in a total pain score from 0 to 10 |
