TL;DR: This study identifies the factors related to patient satisfaction with pain management and the magnitude of the decrease in pain which should allow further efforts to improve the management of pain and reduce its intensity in hospital inpatients.

Abstract: Background The management of pain in hospitalized patients remains a major public hospital priority. It has been the object of three French national programs since 1999. The purpose of this study was to reassess pain prevalence, pain intensity and patient perception of its management ten years after the first national program and to determine the factors related to the patient satisfaction with efforts to decrease pain intensity. Methods A 1-day cross-sectional survey in a university hospital. Results Pain prevalence was 59%. Pain intensity varied according to the medical department with lower intensity in surgery and obstetrics than medicine departments. Eighty-one percent of patients were satisfied with their pain management. Patient satisfaction was higher when doctors and nurses were heavily involved in the process of pain relief (OR = 6.6; 95% CI 3.8, 11.4), and when their pain had decreased (OR = 2.9; 1.7, 5.0). The magnitude of decrease in pain were higher when the medical team was involved (OR = 1.9; 95% IC 1.1, 3.3) and pain intensity was measured (OR = 1.6; 1.0, 2.4). Perceptions of doctor and nurse involvement in the patient's care was higher when pain intensity was measured (OR = 6.0; 3.4, 10.5), an immediate treatment offered (OR = 3.5; 2.0, 6.2), encouragement to ask for an analgesic was provided (OR = 2.0; 1.1, 3.5) and for patients with acute pain (OR = 2.2; 1.0, 4.7). Conclusions This study identifies the factors related to patient satisfaction with pain management and the magnitude of the decrease in pain which should allow further efforts to improve the management of pain and reduce its intensity in hospital inpatients.

The Research on Patient Satisfaction with Remote Healthcare Prior to and during the COVID-19 Pandemic
TL;DR: A literature review of electronic databases, such as: Medline, ProQuest, PubMED, Ebsco, Google Scholar, WoS, was conducted in this article, where the identified empirical papers were classified in two groups concerning the research on patient satisfaction prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Patient Perception of Acute Pain Management: Data from Three Tertiary Care Hospitals
TL;DR: Patients' description of their acute pain intensity; patients' attitude towards their pain management during hospitalization; and their overall satisfaction with pain treatment were assessed to assess pre- and postoperative pain.
Pain management in hospitals: patients' satisfaction and related barriers
TL;DR: Pain remains a prevalent problem that requires more efforts for improvement and this study can effectively serve as a start for larger studies where barriers to pain management can be assessed as an independent variable affecting pain management practice.
Factors influencing the inpatients satisfaction in public hospitals: a systematic review
TL;DR: It has been contended that the construct of consumer satisfaction is a multidimensional and subjective one, and the finding of the current study suggests that all these variables be considered when evaluating patient satisfaction.

Sleep quality and nocturnal pain in patients with hip osteoarthritis
TL;DR: There is a correlation between worsening HOSs and sleep quality and the WOMAC score is a significant predictor of poor sleep quality, and patients with poor hip metrics should be screened for sleep disturbance.

TL;DR: Current human findings regarding sex differences in experimental pain indicate greater pain sensitivity among females compared with males for most pain modalities, including more recently implemented clinically relevant pain models such as temporal summation of pain and intramuscular injection of algesic substances.

The prevalence of what
TL;DR: This issue of the NJP, three articles on the prevalence of psychiatric disorders are published and depression appeared to be on a continuum where ‘‘proxy’’ measures such as impairment and need for treatment were associated with the intensity of depressed mood.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the expression of pain can be scored validly and reliably by using the BPS in sedated, mechanically ventilated patients and the utility of the B PS in making clinical decisions about the use of analgesic drugs in the intensive care unit is warranted.
