Pilot Abstract - Documentation of pain in an intensive care unit by doctors
European Society for Intensive Care Medicine Lives 2015
Collaboration between PLAN and SEARCH KSS
Overview
Overview
PAINT was the second project run by PLAN and involved collaboration with the Kent, Surrey and Sussex trainee network (SEARCH KSS). This retrospective audit reviewed the level of documentation of pain by doctors and nurses in the intensive care unit and the tools being utilised to assess pain.
Data collection took place in spring 2015 and recruited 45 separate ICU departments. Data were collected to evaluate one 24-hour period of care for 750 patients, reflecting the practice of 427 doctors.
Headline results included a reduction in doctor documentation of pain assessments compared with other system reviews such as cardiovascular, respiratory or gastrointestinal. When documentation occurred, most doctors did not use a validated assessment tool for pain, especially in patients potentially unable to communicate. Notably around a quarter of patients did not receive a nursing pain assessment during the study period.
Pan-network and site specific results were disseminated to each site during summer 2015, with the main results presented in October at the European Society for Intensive Care Medicine Lives 2015 conference in Berlin. An abstract comparing practice in cardiothoracic and general intensive care units has been submitted the 2016 American Thoracic Society Annual Congress and further abstracts looking at specific pain related aspects will be submitted to the 2016 IASP World Congress for Pain. Currently a paper is being constructed to account for multilevel statistical analysis with the aim for submission for publication in spring 2016.
