Pain Management Interventions for Needle Stick Procedures: An Ambulatory EBP Project
Abstract:
Pain is a prevalent global health concern, and pain assessment and treatment is a patient right. This evidence-based practice project targeted translating pain management interventions into practice for adult and pediatric patients undergoing needle stick procedures in ambulatory settings. Evidence-based interventions should consistently be offered to patients who often experience procedural pain or discomfort. Implementation of the practice change included multiple interactive, reinforcing strategies. Pre/post-implementation evaluation measures included clinician knowledge, perceptions, and current practices. A pain-related question was added to the institution's ambulatory patient satisfaction survey. Ongoing reinfusion efforts are aimed at promoting sustainability and integration of the practice change.
