Abstract

Pain can be classified according to duration and pathophysiology. Pain expression in children depends on age. In young children with pain who cannot communicate, behavioral change should be observed. Older children may express their own pain severity. Pain assessment tools can be used in various age to evaluate pain severity and treatment intervention. Treating pain in children using two-step strategy and adjuvants may be useful. Procedural pain in neonate have potential for deleterious consequences which can be prevented and managed by both pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments.
