- Abstract:
- INTRODUCTION: Pain in childhood still seems to be a major problem. In this study we investigated parents' opinion about the frequency of pain in their children and the efficacy of pain treatment. METHOD: Parents of 93 children (average age: 11-14 years) answered a questionnaire. The participants were asked to evaluate the frequency of pain and the success of pain treatment in their children. They were also asked about their family structure. RESULTS: The result confirmed that perioperative pain therapy in children was not satisfactory. However, the majority of parents were satisfied with the outpatient pain therapy. CONCLUSION: In order to achieve adequate and successful pain therapy in childhood, better information of the parents and better medical education of doctors is mandatory.
