What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pain score (Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale), self-administered (collaborative children between 3 and 8 years)
Time Frame: Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Pain score for collaborative children between 3 and 8 years will be evaluated with the self-administered Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating scale, ranged 0-10. Higher scores correspond to higher levels of pain. |
Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Pain score (Visual Analogue Scale), self-administered (collaborative children >=8 years) or administered by parents (non-collaborative children >=8 years)
Time Frame: Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Pain score for >=8 years old children will be evaluated with Visual Analogue Scale (self administered if collaborative; administered by parents if non-collaborative children), ranged 0-10. Higher scores correspond to higher levels of pain. In accordance with previous studies (Ferreira-Valente et al. Validity of four pain intensity rating scales. Pain 2011;152:2399-2404), the scores of Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating scale and Visual Analogue Scale will be considered comparable and combined in one outcome variable. |
Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Pain score (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale), evaluated by parents (for children <=3 years)
Time Frame: Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
For children <=3 years, pain score will be evaluated by parents using the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale, ranged 0-10. Higher scores correspond to higher levels of pain. |
Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Pain score (Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain scale), evaluated by parents (for non-collaborative children between 3 and 7 years)
Time Frame: Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
For non-collaborative children between 3 and 7 years, pain score will be evaluated by parents using the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain (CHEOPS) scale, ranged 0-10. Higher scores correspond to higher levels of pain. In accordance with previous studies, the scores of the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale and of the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain (CHEOPS) scale will be considered comparable and combined in one outcome variable. |
Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Agitation
Time Frame: Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Evaluated using the Paediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale, ranging form 0 to 20.
Higher scores correspond to higher levels of agitation.
|
Within 10 minutes after awakening
|
Frequency of use of pain killer drugs
Time Frame: Within 6 hours after the awakening
|
Number of postoperative pain killers drugs administered
|
Within 6 hours after the awakening
