Pain in Children: Nature, Assessment, and Treatment
Abstract
In this comprehensive book, Patricia McGrath not only enlightens readers to the complex issues surrounding the assessment and treatment of children's pain, but also provides practical guidelines for both clinical practice and research. The major emphasis of this book is that pediatric pain assessment and intervention should be considered from a multidimensional and developmental perspective. The book is composed of 10 chapters, focusing on such topics as the nature of children's pain experiences, the nociceptive system, pain assessment, and methods of intervention. The material in each chapter is detailed, comprehensive, presented clearly, and supplemented with appropriate illustrative examples, often from the author's clinical and research experience. The chapters contain summaries of the presented material, which are integrated in a meaningful fashion with recommendations or guidelines when appropriate. In the first chapter, the reader is nicely introduced to the complexities of understanding, assessing, and treating children's pain. McGrath provides a

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
