Abstract
in English, French

This study investigated agreement among undergraduate and graduate veterinary students and veterinary anesthesiologists on video pain assessment at the University of Montreal. Pain assessment in dogs and cats appeared to be affected by gender, previous experience, and degree of training despite a small population of observers.

Accord entre étudiants de premier cycle, diplômés en médicine vétérinaire et anesthésistes pour l’évaluation de la douleur chez les chats et les chiens : étude préliminaire. Cette étude a évalué l’accord entre les étudiants de premier cycle, les étudiants diplômés en médicine vétérinaire et les anesthésiologistes vétérinaires pour l’évaluation de la douleur sur vidéo, à l’Université de Montréal. L’évaluation de la douleur chez les chiens et les chats était influencée par le sexe, l’expérience antérieure et le niveau de formation, malgré une population d’observateurs limitée.(Traduit par les auteurs).
