The PIPER WEEKEND study. Children's and adults satisfaction regarding paediatric pain in Italian Emergency Department.

CONCLUSIONS: Despite increasing understanding of pain and the availability of guidelines and effective analgesics, efficient pain relief in paediatric patients in the ED remains an unfulfilled goal: half of children with pain did not receive any treatments. Therefore the quality of pain management in the ED needs to be improved. PMID: 29616669 [PubMed - in process]
