简要总结
Pain is common following surgery in children. Currently, no recent review of pain profiles at home has been performed on pediatric population in France following general surgery in children. The aim of this study is to evaluate the duration and severity of pain felt by children using a mobile phone application. All children operated in the different centers and leaving home will be included in the study. Children's pain scores will be measured using PPMP-SF scale (Postoperative Pain Measure for Parents Short Form). Data on prescribed and administered analgesia, nausea-vomiting, behavioral problems and parental satisfaction will be collected. The expected results are an inventory's objective observation of postoperative pain profiles at home following the different pediatric surgeries in France. The study will also highlight the different risk factors of postoperative pain (type of surgery, parental causes, reasons due to the child, medical causes).
详细描述
Data from literature suggest that control of postoperative pain remains difficult and insufficient despite interventions to improve the management of children's home-based postoperative pain. In 2017, a recent Australian prospective audit confirms that pain is still underestimated and under-treated by medical staff and home-based families. Currently, no recent review of pain profiles at home has been performed on the pediatric population in France following general surgery in children. The aim of this study is to evaluate the duration and severity of pain felt by children using a mobile phone application.
The study is an epidemiological, observational, prospective and multicenter trial. All children operated in the different centers and leaving home will be included in the study. The peri-operative analgesic treatment will be left to the discretion of the various centers. In addition to the surgical follow-up, post-operative follow-up at home will be carried out using the smartphone application for all patients.
The use of the application will have been explained during the intervention's programming. The application will be downloaded by the parents at home. Parents will be alerted by notifications when they have tracking data to enter. The primary endpoint will be the evaluation of postoperative pain thanks to PPMP-SF scale. Data on prescribed and administered analgesia, nausea-vomiting, behavioral problems and parental satisfaction will be collected.
Statistical analysis will first include a descriptive study of the population. Qualitative data will be expressed as means and standard deviations, and quantitative data as numbers and percentages. Before carrying out each comparative analysis, the application's conditions of the tests used will be verified. The different tests will be considered significant at the 5% threshold unless otherwise specified.
The expected results are an inventory's objective observation of postoperative pain profiles at home following the different pediatric surgeries in France. The study will also highlight the different risk factors of postoperative pain (type of surgery, parental causes, reasons due to the child, medical causes).

结局指标
主要结局
Postoperative pain's evaluation by patients
时间窗: from day 0 until day 10
Measure of pain with auto-evaluation Visual Analog Scale (VAS), using mobile phone application. VAS score goes from 0 to 10. Significant pain is greater than or equal to 3.
Postoperative pain's evaluation by parents
时间窗: from day 0 until day 10
Measure of pain with scale Postoperative Pain Measure for Parents Short Form (PPMP-SF) using the mobile phone application. PPMP-SF scale has 10 items about child behavior. Each item score is 0 or is 1, score of 0 equals an absent sign, score of 1 equals a present sign. Total score is 10. Significant pain is greater than or equal to 6.
次要结局
- Evaluation of Pre-operative anxiety of 7 years old and over patients(at the day before surgery)
- measure of postoperative adverse events(from day 0 to day 10)
- Evaluation of Pre-operative anxiety of parents(at the day before surgery)
