[Acute pain therapy in children]
Abstract
Acute pain therapy in children can be achieved by numerous modalities: non-medicamentous supportive measures, regional and local anesthesia, systemic opioids, non-opioids and co-analgesics. The multimodal approach for prevention and therapy of acute pain in children helps minimizing side effects. A well-organized pediatric pain service based on transparent standard operating procedures seems to be essential for the successful treatment of pain in children.
