Achieving Surgical, Obstetric, Trauma, and Anesthesia (Sota) care for all in South Asia
South Asia is a demographically crucial, economically aspiring, and socio-culturally diverse region in the world. The region contributes to a large burden of surgically-treatable disease conditions. A large number of people in South Asia cannot access safe and affordable surgical, obstetric, trauma, and anesthesia (SOTA) care when in need. Yet, attention to the region in Global Surgery and Global Health is limited. Here, we assess the status of S…
Health-Related Quality of Life Assessments by Children and Adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease and Their Parents in Portugal
SCD significantly affects children's HRQL. Parents can provide a good proxy report, although both evaluations are beneficial. Disease status, like number of hospitalizations and frequency of pain, influences HRQL. Interventions in SCD should consider improvements in HRQL as an important outcome
Experiences of Pediatric Pain Professionals Providing Care during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Chronic pain affects 1 in 5 youth, many of whom manage their pain using a biopsychosocial approach. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the way that healthcare is delivered. As part of a larger program of research, this study aimed to understand the impact of the pandemic on pediatric chronic pain care delivery including impact on patients' outcomes, from the perspective of pediatric healthcare providers. A qualitative descriptive study design was…
Understanding the Impact of the Pain Experience on Aboriginal Children's Wellbeing
Pain is a universal experience all humans share but can be unique in how it is expressed. The pain experience is influenced by several dynamic factors, including family, community and culture. When it comes to pain expression children are among the most vulnerable often due to difficulty conveying their discomfort. Childhood pain can have significant physical and developmental effects that can last into adulthood. These negative health outcomes m…
Aboriginal Children and Physical Pain
All children experience body pain as a result of medical procedures, vaccinations, and a variety of chronic conditions. Children are a vulnerable population and may be even more at risk to experience pain in under-resourced environments. We know that physical pain in childhood causes suffering to the child, family, and caregivers, and can also cause prolonged physiological and immune effects lasting into adulthood. There is evidence that Aborigin…
The Influence of Context on Pain Practices in the Nicu
In this qualitative descriptive study, we explored health care professionals' perceptions of the influence of context (i.e., organizational culture, structure, resources, capabilities/competencies, and politics) on evidence-based pain practices. A total of 16 focus groups with 147 health care professionals were conducted in three neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in central and eastern Canada. Three overarching themes emerged from the data, w…
Children's Pain Assessment in Northeastern Thailand
Deficiencies in pain care within the developing world are starting to be realized. Children, in particular, are vulnerable, as preliminary studies suggest that these children receive less pain treatment because of health professionals' attitudes and beliefs. This article reports on some of the findings of the first study in a larger program of research aimed at improving pediatric pain care in Thailand. Improvements in practice are not simply the…
Maternal influences in adolescents' pain self-management
The family, particularly mothers, has been shown to have a profound impact on children's pain expression and coping. However, the cumulative effect of maternal influences on adolescents' pain experiences is unknown. By adolescence, young people demonstrate independence concerning their own health; this is apparent in decisions to self-medicate for recurrent pain. How adolescents acquire independence in pain management has not been addressed adequ…
