Fiona Lyon et al. Emerg Med J. 2003 Sep.

Abstract

A short cut review was carried out to establish which of the Oucher or CHEOPS pain assessments were best for assessing pain in children. Altogether 12 papers were found using the reported search, of which three presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of these best papers are tabulated. A clinical bottom line is stated.
